The veterinary team have an impressive combined experience of over 40 years of practice in the community. James has worked in rural mixed practice since 1995. After qualifying from Cambridge University in the UK, he worked in Yorkshire for 3 years. He then came to northwest Tasmania in 1999 and, apart from a short time in the Highlands of Scotland to be near family, James has worked here ever since.
James is experienced in all aspects of the veterinary health care we provide at Ulverstone Veterinary Clinic. He is closely involved with our small animal medical cases and undertakes many of the more complex surgeries that we perform. James is also experienced with the health issues facing horses, dairy cattle, beef cattle and other livestock in our area.

The cat is a fantastic pet that brings enjoyment and companionship to families and individuals worldwide. For the love and care you provide they will give you unconditional love and affection in return. Don't take on this role as a kitten carer without thinking of all your responsibilities for providing shelter and warmth, a safe environment as well as feeding and preventative health considerations.
Caring for a puppy that has only recently been removed from mum and the littermates is mostly a warm and enjoyable experience. Your new companion or new member to your family will have some major hurdles to overcome, and so will you. Hopefully you will have done some thinking to make sure that your chosen puppy is appropriate to your circumstances in size, temperament and maintenance requirements.
Rabbits are increasingly popular as domestic pets. They are particularly favoured by young families, but many adults also find them to be wonderful companions. Some people have them as pets entirely inside the home. Others have them caged outside at ground level, above ground or in specially adapted enclosures or sheds.
30 years ago it was the expectation that our canine and feline companions would live to 12 or 13 years of age and it was uncommon for life beyond this. Today it is reasonable to expect them to live up to several years longer than this. Humans in the western world in the same time frame have also had significant improvement in life expectancy.

100% recommend Ulverstone Veterinary Clinic, their professionalism and kindness is amazing, they really do care about your pet and are not just business people, after recently having to put our suddenly ill… family dog to sleep the way Alexandria explained everything to us at one of the worst possible times in our lives made the process as smooth as possible, they were extremely accommodating toward us and the communication we received was very much appreciated. It feels nice to know there are people out there that really care about their job and have consistently show passion towards our

Emergency trip to the vet tonight, sorry I’ve forgotten your name but you were fabulous! Thankfully it was an easily resolved issue after eating the wrong thing and getting an upset tum. Very appreciative of the professional manner, kindness and understanding towards myself and Jed. Currently recovering at home. Thank you.

Thanks so much UVC. I came in unannounced on a Saturday morning and thankfully they were quiet at the time. My little canine mate was seen to straight away and Anna the vet on duty was marvellous. She showed real empathy and kindness and that is exactly what you want when your dog or pet is feeling vulnerable. I'll be back, highly-recommended.

I can not praise enough all of the staff at the clinic. They are to be respected, valued, praised and recognised for their empathy, professionalism and extremely thorough care. I got a glimpse into what the veterinarian’s days can be like this last Friday and was amazed at how they managed such pressure. I predict that they were exhausted at the end of that day, but still kept me updated with Mike’s progress. I am eternally grateful they are always there when I need them.🌟🌟 Olivia & Sarah🌟🌟
