Sail_Away Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 I was hoping to get some recommendations from fellow DOL members of a good vet on the Gold Coast or Northern NSW area? I have been looking into 'The Vet Lounge' which has just opened in Currumbin and have read some good things about Dr Michael Woodcock who is at the Coomera clinic but I think he is moving to the Currumbin one now? Would love to hear everyone's thoughts and experiences from any vets in QLD/Northern NSW areas... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We dont have a good repoductive vet on the coast if this is what you need I travel to Bris for my repo visits. I have been going to the green cross vet at Mudgeeraba & they are very good.

Sail_Away Posted September 30, 2012 Author Share Posted September 30, 2012 Thank you Chook007 - I'm not a breeder so don't require a reproductive vet, I will have a new puppy in a few weeks though so was hoping to find a good reputable vet on the coast... Thanks for suggesting Greencross at Mudgeeraba, I'll look into them :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darlingdog Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 I used Michael Woodcock for years until we moved away from the Gold Coast....I highly recommend him. I had a very seriously ill dog at one time and he was good enough to tell me when we needed more expertise than he could offer and sent me to the appropriate specialist when many vets could have just kept taking my money. He also gave wonderful care for years to my german shepherd who had severe hip dysplasia. BIG thumbs up for Michael. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard he used to work at Seaworld & Dreamworld with sealions and polar bears! He would have to be a brilliant vet IMHO to work with those animals.. So great when you find a 'caring' vet who will go that extra mile for your pet. Thanks for the recommendation, I hope he is now down at Currumbin that would be perfect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandra777 Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Greencross at Mudgeeraba were excellant - avoid Greencross at Palm Beach if you fancy having your puppy well and healthy but perhaps the vets there have changed in the last 3 years... The vets at Ormeau always get a good rap here - Rowan is it? Sorry, don't recall the name of the practice... so check if you're interested in going that far north?

I have also heard this about GreenCross at Palm Beach... Ormeau is a touch too far north but would def consider it if nothing better closer... great hearing 'word of mouth' recommendations though, this forum is brilliant!
