COMPASSIONATE CARE FOR PETS, EXPERTISE YOU CAN RELY ON

At Rutherglen Veterinary Clinic, we know pets are family. Since 2008, we’ve proudly cared for animals from Northeast Victoria, Indigo Shire, across the Murray River and beyond. Our mission is to provide Exceptional and personalised veterinary care for all patients that come through our door through unwavering animal advocacy, outstanding customer service and clear, honest communication. We are committed to striving for knowledge and continual improvement through the values of lifelong education for staff, pet owners and the community we serve.

Our clinic takes pride in the delivery of lifelong care of your pet, including preventative care and wellness provision, emergency care when the unexpected happens, and supportive care throughout your pet’s life journey.

We are well equipped with quality equipment, including digital radiology, ultrasound, in-house blood testing, and a blood bank to support the timely investigation and treatment of emergencies. We are looking forward to the imminent installation of our new state-of-the-art surgery table and surgery lights as part of the upgrading of our facilities, as we progress to meet the increasing needs of our patients in the future.

We appreciate that veterinary care can have a financial impact on household budgets. We have flexible payment options such as VetPay, Afterpay, and ZipPay to ease the stress of the impact of finances that veterinary bills can have during what can often be an already stressful time.
