University Avenue Vet Hospital

Located in Durack, Palmerston, here at University Avenue Vet Hospital we aim to develop an open, friendly and caring relationship with our clients, enabling us to help keep healthy pets well and help unwell pets to get better.

Whether you are visiting us for a general consultation or for a routine procedure such as vaccinations, microchipping or desexing, you can rest assured your pet will be given the very best care. Our staff are not only highly trained, but also passionate about the health of your pet.

We are open Monday through to Saturday, and can generally always offer same day appointments, although there are times when very unwell patients will be given priority, along with unpredictable emergencies that require all of our staff on board to help.
