Great Western Animal Hospital
At Great Western Animal Hospital we know how important it is that your 4 legged family member receives the best possible care and attention. Whether you visit us for your pet's annual health check and vaccination or if in the unfortunate circumstance that they are unwell or injured you can be rest assured that we will treat them as one of our own.

Despite GWAH being in one of the hotspot LGA's currently in lockdown we will still remain open to see our patients and deliver essential healthcare. We have however, implemented a number of protocols to ensure the safety of both our. Ear infections are one of the most common conditions we see here at GWAH.
Services
We have been going to GWAH for 13+ years and have nothing but praise for the entire team there. They have cared for two cats (Cleopatra and Miss Pud) and two dogs (Bandit and Larry) that we have had in our family during that time. The care and service given by all the staff through good times and bad has been excellent.
We are open 7 days a week with late weekday hours (8am - 8pm) in an effort to make sure we can accommodate for our client's busy schedules! Our consultations run on a 15 - 20 minute appointment basis in an endeavour to save your valuable time in the waiting room and to minimise stress for your pet.
Before your pet is vaccinated, one of our vets will perform a thorough health check and physical examination. Annual health checks are a very important part of your dog or cat's healthcare program. During this 15 - 20 minute appointment we will discuss any concerns you have regarding your pet's health and any other problems that we may find during the examination.
If you are not planning on breeding your dog or cat we recommend that he/ she be desexed between 5 - 6 months of age. Several health and behavioural problems can be prevented if neutering is performed at this age. Desexing requires a general anaesthetic so your pet will need to stay with us for the day but will usually be able to go home that evening.
Fleas are an all year round problem that all dogs, cats and rabbits are susceptible to. It is important to be aware that the flea problem is not only what you see on your dog or cat. Adult fleas represent only 5% of the flea population - the other 95% is found as flea eggs, pupae and larvae in the home environment.

I found them very thorough and helpful, my little boy was sick with a few things and they always called to see how he was doing, the nurses and staff were lovely.I was an ongoing mess trying to save him and… spent thousands in a short time, I was there at least twice a week and they or I called at least 3 times a week. I had to give my baby his wings in December 21, it hurt a little that no one bothered to call a week or so after he passed just to say we are sorry or hope you are going ok just one call to acknowledge the importance of his passing to me would have been thoughtful

They really care for your animal and are terrific communicators with organised and timely service. Wonderful vets, I left the vets in my local area because I prefer the service here. Simply expert care.

It’s taken a couple of weeks to write this but I had to say AN ABSOLUTELY AMAZING THANK YOU 🙏 Our princess LuLu sadly lost her life in a tragic accident 3 weeks ago & instantly I knew I wanted her home with us… ( cremated ). Our usual vet had closed for the day and I knew about GWAH through friends. Without a doubt I gave them a call , absolutely a mess and could barely speak. From the minute the phone was answered to the moment we picked up our girls ashes , YOUR STAFF WERE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING IN EVERY SINGLE WAY. Never experiencing loosing an animal of my own , you could

A great vet for anyone with a pet. The team at the Great Western Animal Hospital are excellent. Easy to book in, great attention to the client and their follow up is fantastic. The whole team really care about our dog, Chica. Pricing is great and they don't try and rip you off like other places. We wouldn't go anywhere else.

Jodie was awesome! The preschool session was great for our little Mouchi. I recommend to anyone who has a puppy between 8 to 15 weeks old to come and register as you learn a lot throughout the process.

The team at GWAH are always amazing. After a very scary episode with one of my cats, they booked him in right away. They treated him with such care, gave him lots of attention and kept us updated and well-informed throughout his treatment. Very grateful to Dr Matthew, Dr Mel & all of the nurses and staff who helped care for our boy. Very professional, and incredibly caring team. Thank you!

The team here are so friendly and helpful. One of my dogs was sick in the car on the way there and one of the VETs took the lead and washed it off for me. She could see my struggling to clean it with wet wipes.
They take great care of my boys! And offer wonderful advice.
Highly recommended this practice.

Beware. Only interested in money instead of the well fair of your family member. They prey on your emotions as a pet owner and charge you for things that you really do not need to have done and after all the that they make you put your pet down. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
