jonponton Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Hi All, I am looking to find a new vet to start taking my dogs to. I have had multiple instances where my current vets consultations and suggestions have been very poor, bordering on negligent, resulting in multiple vet visits and numerous midnight calls to Murdoch emergency vet (who BTW have always provided excellent help). Can anyone suggest a reputable vet in Perth, preferably south of the river? Many thanks! Jon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snarferama Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Definitely Steve Metcalfe at Applecross Vet. I'd say he's easily one of the best vets in Perth, if not the best. Both our boys and our cats go there for their routine vet care. It's a fair trek for us but it's worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandgrubber Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 It depends on where you are and what sort of vet care you're after. I use Applecross -- there are a few good vets t here and they do a good job supervising trainees -- for reproductive questions and X-rays, Vets2U Mobile Vets (Karon Eastley - works out of South Lake) for routine questions -- and I often send people to Andrew Buchannan in South Perth if they want good 'bedside manner' and a good generalist vet.

Anna H Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Steve @ Applecross is absolutely brilliant... I'm just sad that I live too far NOR nowadays to visit that clinic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoochie Mama Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 How far south of the river? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peigirl Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Steve @ Applecross is absolutely brilliant... I'm just sad that I live too far NOR nowadays to visit that clinic. Steve is Raf's vet too :rolleyes: I'm in Joondalup but still head down there. He is a shar pei breed specialist so I make the effort. Great communicator and very reasonably priced. When you find a good vet, stick with them. Stephen Reid Ascot Vet Hospital 297 Great Eastern Hwy Belmont Ph 9277 7488 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
