Aspley Veterinary Practice

We bought the Aspley Veterinary Pactice from Dr Richard (Harley) Lomax in 1997. At the time it was in an old wooden Queenslander on Gympie Road where Harley had practiced for nearly 30 years. When Harley began practice there was no veterinarian to the north of him until you reached Townsville.

Since 1997 we have built a new facility, replaced all the equipment, and introduced highly trained nurses. Aspley is now able to offer full service patient care with veterinary and nursing staff on-site six days a week; dedicated surgery suite; in-house biochemistry and haematology analysis, and dedicated hospital facilities for patients needing to stay with us.

The most valuable asset we gained from the old practice was Dr Jill Retell who continues practising today
