I have a number of pets, and have had two with chronic illnesses, one which was severe, for over a decade, and they never ran out of energy, patience and support throughout, even in the worst of times. What's more, I am yet to meet an animal that is not in love with the resident veterinarian, Dr Kieron Nandkumar. I have equal admiration and respect for Nursing staff Justine, Glynis, Natalie and Fiona, who are all, without exception, efficient, effective and compassionate in their care, of not only their patients, but also that of their patients' humans. A personalised and warm environment where you can be certain your pet is in competent and gentle hands. I cannot speak highly enough of Noble Park Veterinary Clinic and the wonderful people who make it the best clinic I have ever had the pleasure and fortune to deal with. I highly recommend them--from general veterinary care, to more complex and chronic illness, they excel in all. They also offer an excellent professional grooming service, guaranteed to clean and polish even the scruffiest of pets until they're all shiny and new again.

They're…read morereally, really nice people who are passionate about looking after the animals in their care, and it shows in everything they do at this place. It's clean, generally pretty quiet (I mean, it's a vet, not a library), and the staff are lovely. I've had pets tagged, desexed, vaccinated, euthanised, pretty much everything you could expect to have as a breeder, I've had done here. I really, really like this place. A lot.

They make you feel as though your pet is the most important pet to them. They have a pretty good hydrobath, which for my 38kg labrador is essential as he's too big to go in the bath when he shakes so much! The only thing is with the hydrobath they seem to have problems with the equipment quite often. Sometimes it's the nozzle, other times the cold water tap was stuck in the on position (but not leaking as there is a sprayer trigger you have to press). Other than that it's a great place to have all the services you need for your pet.

Earlier this year I took my 2 dogs to Southern Animal Health (SAH) for treatment, signing a…read moresurgical admission form which had an unexpected $88 charge. Under time constraints, I signed the form intending to clarify the extra charge when I picked the puppies up. On returning I paid the account in full $849.60. I then queried the additional $88 charge which was refunded by the attending vet. Over the following 24 hours I received 3 phone calls from SAH, at the direction of owner Marcus Hayes, demanding repayment of $88. Despite advising staff that I would repay the money at the post operative visit and despite being a client of SAH for over 10 years, paying upwards of $25,000 for treatment- without issue. In addition to the phone calls, I then received a formal letter from Marcus Hayes stating that I had been unreasonable in querying the $88 additional charge, that my dog would not receive post operative care until the $88 had been repaid & that he required an assurance that I would not query cost of any future treatments. Believing that there was a mutually respectful relationship between Marcus Hayes and myself I am at a loss to understand why I have been dealt with in this manner. The only point of difference between Marcus and me has been when I registered a complaint that another of my dogs, who was seen by an alternative veterinary practice, required the removal of 8 teeth. She had been a client of SAH for nearly 9 years, receiving annual health checks and other treatments at SAH. I was troubled that her condition had not been diagnosed by the attending SAH vets. The whole experience has been shocking & hurtful. I cannot believe that the refunding of $88 by the attending vet could in any way justify Marcus directing his staff to phone me 3 times in 24 hours demanding repayment, to ignore my commitment to repay the money on the post operative visit nor justify the sending of a formal letter again demanding repayment, denying post operative care & demanding a commitment to never query future treatment costs on my part.

The last time I took her to the vet she ended up clawing the back of the vet, and trying to swing from the 2 meter high window sill. I took her into Glenvale vet, in Glen Waverley, ready for a war. We waited less than ten minutes, which was a good start. When we were called in, the vet was lovely. She was very gentle and friendly towards my cat, and my cat really responded to that. I was shocked when she proceeded to purr and rub herself up against the vet. I have never seen her behave so relaxed in the company of a vet. She was even more than happy to allow the vet to take her temp. My cat ended up needed a course of antibiotics, and I took her back in for a follow up and was not charged for the second consult. I thought that was fantastic. It is expensive enough to care for animals without the added cost of expensive vet trips. Even now I live a good distance away from this vet, but it's worth me traveling there when my cat needs attention because I know she feels comfortable there.
