Holistic Veterinary Care
that meets you where you are
Welcome
Welcome to our hospital, where every pet is cared for as part of the family, and has been since 1982.
We believe that true veterinary medicine is about more than treating symptoms—it’s about understanding the whole animal, their lifestyle, and the bond you share.
​
That’s why we take a holistic approach, being mindful of the bigger picture and the root cause of ill health, offering a spectrum of care to suit your pet’s needs and your family’s circumstances. Whether you’re looking for the most thorough investigation or a gentler, simpler path, you’ll find compassionate guidance and thoughtful options here.​
​
We are a family friendly practice, and all family members including children & breastfed babies are welcome to attend consultations.

Services
Consultations
& Check-ups
We are happy to see all our patients for consultations and health checks, no matter how small the concern may seem. We offer same day consultations as well as advance bookings.
Integrative Medicine
With integrative medicine, modern diagnostics meet gentle, natural therapies - whether it's Western Herbal Medicine, Traditional Chinese Medicine, nutrition, or supportive supplements. Whatever approach fits your pet's needs and your family's values we're here to work with you.
Routine & Advanced
Dental Care
Dental health affects the entire body. We perform dental procedures daily, and offer year-round complimentary dental checks for your pet with our veterinarians.
Acupuncture
We offer acupuncture treatment for inflammation and musculoskeletal conditions in areas such as the knee joint (including ruptured cruciate ligaments), hips, neck, and back (including disc disease).
House Calls
If you would prefer we are always happy to schedule house calls throughout our day to benefit both you and your little (or big!) one.
Behaviour Management
We take a multifaceted approach to behaviour management with our patients, just as we would with our own mental health.
Vaccinations & Microchipping
We vaccinate, microchip, and dispense parasite prevention medication and tailor an individual program for your pet’s needs.
Desexing Surgeries
We desex male and female dogs, cats, rabbits, and male rats. Desexing your pet can be beneficial for their mental and physical health.
Emergency Care
We are associated with NEVS, the Northside Emergency Vet Services team, should you have a problem out of hours.
Ultrasound
When diagnostic tests matter most, our onsite ultrasound quickly uncovers answers - so you and your pet don't wait for peace of mind.
Surgery
Our veterinarians are experienced in routine & emergency surgical procedures. We also have a specialist surgeon perform more complicated procedures on site on a regular basis, such as advanced orthopaedic surgeries like TPLOs for cruciate ligament disease.
Radiology
With our state of the art digital radiology (x-ray) unit, we can gain invaluable diagnostic information at any time and interpret it in real time.
Titre Testing
As part of our customised vaccination programs, we offer titre testing for the core vaccine viruses for dogs and cats.
Greyhound Medicine
We treat many Greyhounds at AVH and understand their unique breed requirements. We have been working with Greyhounds adopted through the GAP program for many years.
Cat Grooming
We clip many of our feline patients during the warmer months to help them manage the heat and assist their owners in finding paralysis ticks.
