20.01.2022 As most everyone would be aware, we are now under a 5-day mandatory lockdown. It is our priority to keep the hospital open and maintain excellent and safe care for our clients and their families, whilst also doing our bit to ensure effective social distancing as per WA government policies. As a consequence, for the duration of lockdown, we will be going back to contactless/‘curbside’ consultations - our front door will be locked and we ask that you ring from your car when you... arrive, a staff member will come out to retrieve your pet and bring them into the hospital. The vet will then ring you while you wait in your car and do the consultation over the phone. In accordance with current guidelines please wear a mask, and if you are unwell, do not attend your pet’s appointment. We will not be offering house calls at this time, except in specific extenuating circumstances. We ask for any food and medication orders to please ring us in advance - so that we can ensure we have adequate stock on hand and to arrange a pick up time for you. Wherever possible please also use EFTPOS. As the situation evolves, other changes may apply both for our profession and others, and we will continue to make it a priority to keep you updated. Be patient with us as we do everything in our power to be here for you and your family. In the meantime, please practice kindness, look after yourselves and each other, and know that we are here to help care for your fur family during these continued unprecedented times x

08.01.2022 Welcome Reece! Reece is a 4th year Murdoch University vet student who has joined the team after doing work experience with us, helping out on Saturdays! Make sure to say hi when you are next in ‘Hi, my name is Reece! I grew up in Newcastle, NSW, with early onset enthusiasm for everything animal. Growing up with a native animal rehabilitator I was constantly surrounded by fur, feathers and scales, which encouraged my interest in fauna. ... I completed by Bachelor of Zoology at the University of New England in 2015 and then a Certificate III in captive animals soon after. After volunteering and working at zoos in NSW I realised my desire to work with animals in a way that promotes positive interactions between animals and humans. After much consideration, I concluded that I was extremely motivated to become a veterinarian. I am currently in my fourth year of my Veterinary Science/Doctor of Veterinary Medicine pathway, so most of the time I am studying and actively fighting off sleep. In my ‘spare’ time, you would probably find me gaming, watching movies, making music, or playing squash. I’m excited to meet you and your animal friends!’

03.01.2022 A MASSIVE congratulations to Dr Yoko on officially getting the newest chapter of the Australian and New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists (ANZCVS) established in Veterinary Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation! The ANZCVS is the formal body that oversees and examines vets wishing to advance their skill and knowledge in a specific field of veterinary science, offering both Membership and Fellowship examinations. This new chapter means that Australian veterinarians can ...now start down the path of becoming specialists in the field of Veterinary Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation, like their American and European counterparts. Dr Yoko will now start studying for the inaugural membership exams to be held in 2022 - we wish her all the best in advancing her knowledge even further! ‘Members’ of the college have undertaken at least 400 hours of self directed study, and sat difficult exams with at least a 70% mark required to pass the examinations. ‘Fellows’ have studied for longer, undertaken residencies, more exams and once they pass, are eligible to register as specialists in their field. Well done Yoko for helping to establish our profession’s newest chapter!
