This spacious clinic provides a wide range of treatment options and an extensive range of food, flea, worm and shampooing products. The veterinary team is led by Dr Taryn Hutt who has a special interest in avian medicine and surgery (birds). We also have Dr Emily Li, who usually works days that Taryn is not here. The friendly nursing team consists of Chelsea Woodall, Lisa Tucker and Paige Cantelo.
