Working together with your Vet for the best care for your pet

As a responsible pet owner, you are likely to have a local veterinary practice that you know and trust to look after your pet.

Your regular vet will know your pet’s history and should be your first port of call if your pet is unwell or injured. However, sometimes your vet will need access to particular expertise, specialised equipment or a second opinion – this is where Murdoch University Veterinary Hospital comes in.

Murdoch University Veterinary Hospital has been providing veterinary training and a referral service to the local veterinary community for over thirty years.

We aim to work closely with your regular vet in maintaining your pet in the best possible health.

Once referred to Murdoch University Veterinary Hospital, your pet has access to specialists in medicine, surgery, anaesthesia and diagnostic services. We also have the facilities and technology that can make a real difference to your pet’s chances of a successful recovery.
