Moorabbin Veterinary Hospital: Reviews
Fantastic experience: The vets here are empathetic, honest and upfront about any questions you have about your pet’s care or the fees. Over the last year MVH has treated our cat and dog with emergency care after horrible accidents, as well as routine dentistry. During a stressful time they’ll reassure you and they’re also very honest if is something out of their scope (our dog needed a specific type of specialist). Dr Yoke Tan and Dr. Sarah Park are fantastic.
Fantastic experience: I have been attending Moorabbin Vetinary Hospital for over 20 years. The vets are so knowledgeable and caring. The admin staff are friendly and extremely helpful. I would highly recommend Moorabbin vets to look after your beloved fur babies!!
Thank you for the lovely 5 stars Faye! They mean a lot from such a loyal and long standing friend of MVH! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Great, friendly quick service.
Thank you for the 5 star review Tilly & Betsy! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: I wish I could give MVH more than 5 stars! Their immediate warmth and compassion puts both you and your animal at ease. All the staff are personable and make a real effort to build a relationship with you and your pet. Dr Jenny's expertise always ensured I felt safe leaving my frenchie's welfare in her capable hands - thank you to the MVH team for being such superstars!
Thank you so much for your 5 stars Carly! We’re delighted to hear you Marley feel so cared for by our team, especially Dr Jenny! We appreciate you! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: I have been going to this clinic for a couple of years now and I’m always so impressed with the genuine care I receive from not only the vets, but from the front of house crew as well. I have recently had quite an issue with my cat and had to visit the clinic every day for the last four days and they have been incredible with handling my cat and me! They are so thorough and full of empathy! I highly recommend this vet for anyone who is nervous about attitude or service or who have had bad experiences elsewhere. And they’ve just renovated so it looks incredible as well!
Thank you Sara, what a lovely review! We appreciate your kind words! It means a lot to know that our team made your visits special! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: We went to the Moorabbin Veterinary Hospital mainly to get some advice concerning a little lamb we had in our care since it had been neglected by its mom. Tanya was very helpful and went out of her way to give us as much information as possible. This practice doesn’t specialise in farm animals, which is understandable, but we felt the deep sense of care and compassion. We were able to purchase some items that would be helpful in looking after the lamb and got directions where to get some additional food supplements from a shop nearby.
Thank you for your kind review Adam! We're happy that we could be of some assistance! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Thank you to all the entire team at MVH. The amazing vets, nurses and receptionists for all your care of Shiloh over the last week (and over his whole life too!) It has been reassuring knowing that he is in good hands with you all. You’ve all been wonderful. We really appreciate all your time and effort with him. Thank you for all that you do!
Thank you for the lovely review Michaela! We're glad he's feeling better and that he's back home with the family! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Been taking our dogs here for years. Great service.

Thank you Jane, for your kind words, and also the photo of your gorgeous boy! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Today I took my new pup Digger to MVH for his 3 mth health check and vaccination. The Vets, nursing staff, admin staff are second to none and i wouldn't take my dogs anywhere else. This is my 4th Australian terrier to be cared for by the staff at MVH since my fist visit in 1993. Thank you so much for all you've done to care for my dogs and me!
Thank you Carole, we always love seeing you and Dudley! And also thank YOU for being such a lovely client for all of these years. Love Team MVH! x

Fantastic experience: Can’t speak highly enough about the Moorabbin Veterinary Hospital. Everyone in the team goes above and beyond to make sure our girls are happy, healthy and well cared for. 10 out of 10!
Thank you for your kind review Di, give the girls a cuddle from us! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Thank you Nurse Dominique for doing such a great job with Roxy! You were extremely calm and patient and did a fabulous bandage, even though Roxy was distressed and in pain. You are really good at reading animal behaviour.
Thank you for your lovely review and kind words for Domi! Hopefully Roxy is on the mend and still loves us a little bit! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: We’re incredibly grateful for the exceptional care Dr John Ley & the team at MVH provide. They’re thorough, knowledgeable, compassionate & gentle, always going above & beyond to ensure our fur babies feel comfortable & receive the very best treatment & care. You guys are amazing!!!
Thank you for the lovely review Ella! Please give the kitties a smooch from us! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: We’re so grateful for the amazing care from Sarah and Kiah. Willow, who used to dread visits, now actually loves coming in! They were incredible through her knee surgery and recovery, helping her bounce back stronger than ever.
Thank you Hayden! We love that Willow loves to come in now! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Having recently lost our beloved Lily, our Maltese 'Princess' I would like to put up some observations about MVH. All of the Vets have been fantastic with Lily and us, as her owners. Nothing was too much trouble for any of the staff, be they Reception, Nurses or Vets. We were given plenty of time and information about Lily over the last year. We never felt rushed in the appointments, our questions were always answered and we never felt that Lily was " over treated". Everything was realistic, manageable and reasonably priced. All of these factors are what a pet owner needs to know. After Lily's passing, we received a lovely bunch of flowers and a card, plus a follow up phone call a week later to see how we were all getting on without Lily. Several weeks later, the Vets generously gave their time to speak to our adult daughter and help her through the grief of Lily's passing. We would highly recommend MVH for your pet, as everyone is very professional and knowledgeable about their work.
Thank you Jocelyn, what a lovely reflection on what was a difficult time for you and your family. We thank you and Woody for being such a lovely friends to MVH! X
Fantastic experience: The entire team at Moorabbin Vet are supportive, caring and extremely knowledgeable. Our little pup Willow needed a lot of attention last year (2 knee surgeries and spent a few days at the vet for dehydration), and the team went out of their way to show her so much love and helped keep our anxiety/stress levels as low as possible with regular communication and check ins. We are so grateful for their help. We now travel 40 mins each way to continue using them as our regular vets
Thank you for the 5 star review Steph! We appreciate your kind words, and your visits with little Willow! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Absolutely the best vet care is given by the Moorabbin Veterinary Hospital staff. We used to take our Guinea Pig Cookie here and now our dog Zaar. The staff are amazing, super knowledgeable and very helpful. Zaar gets excited to come visit the vets and is never scared. He has unfortunately had a few incidents requiring medical attention and the doctors, nurses and the reception staff have always been there and offered the best treatment, care and support possible. Thanks team for being there for Zaar
Thank you Smita, what a lovely review! Thank you for the 5 stars! Also special thanks for the cute picture of Zaar, give him a cuddle from us! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing team who have been treating my animals for years.
Thank you for the lovely review Craig! We appreciate you! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: A HUGE thank you to Dr Rhona who helped my bunny with GI stasis today. Our first time navigating this scary condition and Rhona was amazing! Moorabbin Veterinary Hospital has helped us with our dogs previously and they are always so loving and kind. They never over charge and will go above and beyond to help your fur babies!
Hi Amy, thank you for your 5 stars! We hope that Pablo is on the mend and feeling better soon. Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Thank you for the great consultation for my dog, Boxer. The staff were not only friendly but truly compassionate. I couldn’t have asked for a better visit — you treated Boxer with kindness, professionalism, and genuine care. Thank you so much for the exceptional service you provided. It meant the world to us!
Thank you for the 5 star review Ruth and Boxer! We'll be sure to pass them on to the team! MVH! X
Fantastic experience: I’ve been taking my dogs to Moorabbin Veterinary Hospital for over 20 years, and I honestly wouldn’t go anywhere else. John, Jenny and the entire team are not only highly knowledgeable but also incredibly caring and empathetic. Whether it’s been for routine check-ups, surgery, or supporting me through the heartbreaking experience of my dogs crossing the rainbow bridge — they’ve always gone above and beyond. Their warmth, professionalism, and genuine love for animals shines through in everything they do. I’ve recommended them to many friends and family over the years, and they’ve all had equally positive experiences. Thank you to the team for your continued care and compassion — you’ve made such a difference in our lives and our fur children’s.
Thank you so much for your kind review Tanya. We love hearing that we make a difference. Working with committed pet owners such as yourself is very satisfying. Dr Jenny, Dr John and the MVH team! X
Fantastic experience: I started taking my 2 cats here a couple of years ago and they are great. Recently one of my cats was injured and we have been in every few days and the whole team have gone above and beyond. I couldn’t be happier with his treatment from Dr Jennibelle, Hayley and the others whose names I can’t remember (sorry)! I highly recommend them and am so glad I found them. Thanks team!
Thank you for the 5 stars Sarah! The team has enjoyed your visits, sending smooches to Davey! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Dr Rhona has been an incredible experience over the last 5 consecutive weeks of care for my clients dog Lady. My client who has had a bad past experience with vets was very soon put at ease with Dr Rhona's bedside manner, empathy and her care in animals and their health. Although it was not the end result we wanted, Rhona handled everything with such expertise and compassion for my client as well as her dog. We have now been referred to an eye specialist and we can only hope for the best moving forward. Thank you for your care!
Thank you for your kind words regarding Dr Rhona, and the lovely review! Sending our love to Lady! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: So thankful for everyone here, friendly and attentive staff. Would highly recommend, they made our experience a lot better - forever grateful Special thanks to Domi, you are a gem
Thank you Selena! We think Domi is a gem too! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: These guys are amazing! Extremely caring and supportive staff that accommodated us quickly and professionally. I couldn't recommend them more. Domi is also the goat.
Thank you Naoki, we're glad that we could be there for you at such a stressful time. Give Teddy a cuddle from us! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: All 3 of our animals have been cared for so beautifully by the staff at Moorabbin Vet. The service is fantastic and the staff are so helpful and caring. Highly recommended!
Thank you for the 5 stars Sarah! We appreciate you! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Have been attending this vet for many years with our cats and as a family for over 30 years. The staff have always been friendly and nice to deal with, being animal lovers themselves. Facility hours are the best in the area, being open 7 days a week. Clean facility and quick to get an appointment. We have always been pleased with the time taken to explain everything, but even when we had concerns, the team are happy to explain things further and alleviate those concerns.
Thank you for your 5 stars Bobby. We're very grateful for your loyalty and custom over the years. Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: I recently took my 10 year old fur baby here for a major dental procedure which I was terrified of doing. The staff were all amazing and made me feel so much better about having Kuda put under. I honestly couldn't recommend anymore! The only place I would trust to take him from now on - everyone was amazing!
Thank you for your 5 star review Cassie and Kuda! We're thankful for your kind words. Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Excellent service, very nice, affordable
Thank you for your 5 stars Luke, we're delighted that you enjoyed your visit with Minzi this morning! Team MVH! X
Negative experience: The whole experience was lacking - but would have been ok if it wasn’t for the Review Consultation. There appeared to be no real handover from the original Vet to the Reviewing Vet. The 2nd Vet didn’t even read the file notes. I don’t know if the file notes were adequate or not, but there should be a pre-defined handover procedure. I am really not happy with the Review nor am I confident that things are ok with my dog after $$$ surgery. The original surgery, after care, and nurse involvement were all good (not perfect but good) and I would rate that at around 4 stars. The Review has left me concerned and unsure as to whether or not I need a second opinion. ***Update: I had a call from the principal Vet asking me to change my review. He didn’t address my issues: he just wanted me to change the review. The response (to my review) from the practice, is really a bit of a stretch. Firstly, the title of the practice includes HOSPITAL so I do expect things to be shuffled around when an operation is required, and I do expect you to be highly skilled at that. If the operating vet had to work overtime, then she should received overtime, TIL, etc, the cost of the surgery was more than enough to cover this. That my dog remained overnight, well this happens, she was far too sedated to come home. I provided all of her food and snacks. Nurses were excellent! When a client writes a negative review, the recipient has the opportunity to address the issue and this can result in a negative review becoming a positive review. The worst possible outcome, is when a client votes with their feet.
Thank you for your feedback Elizabeth, we are always open to ideas as to how we can improve our service and the experience as a whole. We are surprised to find that you thought the MVH service was lacking after we fitted you in as an extra on a fully booked morning, and the vet stayed back to ensure that your dogs surgery was completed on the same day. Although your pet was able to go home after surgery, we also waived the overnight and following day hospitalisation charges as a way to accommodate your request that she stay. We're sorry if you feel that we did not meet your expectations.
Fantastic experience: With a long history of pets and four now, it is easy to notice a good diagnostician vet . Highly recommend Sarah Parker who has advised on difficult matters and is also empathetic and kind to both pet and worried owner! Friendly staff at the reception helps the experience a lot.
Thank you for the 5 stars! Thank YOU for being a lovely and loyal client over the last decade! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Thank you for being so accommodating and compassionate. The world needs more vet clinics like you.

Thank you! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Always late with appointments, otherwise good care
Fantastic experience: We are grateful to the amazing team at Moorabbin Veterinary Hospital! Our dogs ate a bag of chocolates each, and we raced them straight there. They acted quickly, offering expert care and reassurance. Jenny, John and the staff were compassionate and professional, keeping us informed throughout. Our pups are doing great now, thanks to their quick response. We have been taking all our animals to MVH for over 50 years, and they have always gone above and beyond in looking after our animals.
Thank you for your wonderful 5 star review Cheryl! We're glad Banjo and Bella are back to their usual selves! Team MVH! X

Fantastic experience: We’ve been bringing our mini groodle Tilly to Moorabbin Veterinary Hospital since she was a puppy and have always been impressed with the care they’ve provided. But the level of love, support, care and kindness the whole team provided to Tilly and our family recently after a traumatic incident was next level. They saved Tilly’s life and we’ll be forever grateful. Thank you!
Thank you for your lovely review Natalie. We're glad that we could be there for you, Tilly, and the family during such a distressing time. She's been a very brave little lady! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Wonderful vet clinic! I take my cat and dog here .. and every time when I’m faced with a diff vet I receive caring honest advice. Dr Jenny, Dr Angel and recently saw Dr Yoke and all were wonderful! Please continue with your care of our furry friends.
Thank you for your kind review, we're glad that you enjoy your visits! Team MVH! X

Thank you for your kind review Christine! We're also glad that little Ruby is okay (hopefully no more sneaky treats in her future!). Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: They have looked after my puppy amazingly
Thank you for the 5 stars Craig! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Fantastic vet clinic! Great spot on South road with easy parking. Really friendly front desk staff and nurses and clean facilities and work-friendly operating hours with late night trading. I especially appreciated the sms reminders and email links to complete required paperwork ahead of appointments. Dr Jenny is a wonderful vet - Really took the time to assess my Italian Greyhound thoroughly and understand his history and recommend the appropriate course of dental treatment that minimized pain and delivered good outcomes while being up front and reasonable with pricing. Went to this clinic as a second opinion after moving from interstate and so glad I did! Took great care of my pup during his dental surgery, provided SMS updates of his progress once out of surgery and called me as soon as he was ready to go home. I'll happily take him back for his yearly health checks :) Great experience!
Thank you for this 5 star review Samantha! We're glad that you had a great experience! We also hope your little man Molto is feeling great after his procedure! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Dr Wang was so kind and caring when my cat was sick. Very informative and helpful when I was stressed about his health, couldn’t recommend them enough!
Thank you for the 5 stars Shab! We hope that Ronald is feeling better! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Caring and competent care & medical help for my dogs. Lovely experience.
Thank you for your 5 star review Toni, much appreciated! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Thank you to Dr John & Dr Priyanka who saw both my little dachshunds recently, both pups came down with a bad case of Gastro. They completely bounced back to normal after their seperate consultations. Amazing service and both vets were patient with us and our dachies. Thank you again!!
We are glad to hear that they are going well! Thank you for the 5 star review! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Five Stars all the way!! Went above and beyond for our boy, very friendly, kind and compassionate staff. I have only great things to say about this vet, an added bonus was that they're reasonably priced. Keep doing the great work that you do! <3
Thank you for your 5 star review Elizabeth! We hope Frankie is feeling better! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: If I could give more stars I would...from the receptionists to the vet nurses to the vets...they are all worthy of multiple stars...their knowledge and treatment of our precious pets ( and us their precious owners!) Is outstanding.
Oh Ruth, this is the loveliest review! We give you 5 stars too! It's always a pleasure when you come in! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Dr Yoke at Moorabbin Veterinary Hospital is fantastic. She’s very thorough, thoughtful and kind. Thank you Dr Yoke.
Thank you for your kind words about Dr Yoke, we will make sure she sees them! Thank you Sarah! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Moorabbin vets has looked after both my pets and my family’s. I have complete faith in all the staff I have been vet nursing for over 10 years (in emergency) and I can’t recommend this practice enough Thanks Jenny and all the team for looking after Kaiser and Norman.
Thank you for your 5 star review Kristi! Thank you for taking the time to share these kind words! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Squeezed us in on Xmas eve (even though they were fully booked and obviously very busy) to help us say goodbye to our elderly dog Jackson. Understanding, compassionate and kind. Many thanks to a brilliant team
Thank you for your lovely words. Jackson was clearly a very much loved and cared for member of your family. Our condolences at this difficult time, Team MVH, Xx
Fantastic experience: Dr. Jenibelle Wang was excellent, knowledgeable, as superhumanly patient helping us with our cavoodle Archie on Saturday. A very big thank you to her, and to Moorabbin Veterinary Hospital.
Thank you for trusting Archie with our care, and thank you for your kind words regarding Dr Jenibelle (she is a wealth of knowledge!). Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: My dog absolutely loves it here (she's a bit weird I think!) She is always so happy to be looked after. Dr Angel Chu is very knowledgeable and always helpful. Reception staff are lovely too!
Thank you for your 5 star review and kind words about Dr Angel! We're glad that Kiko loves her visits to MVH. Thank you Ebony! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Aiobheann & l feel so blessed that she is in my life. She looks after all my animals with kindness & compassion. She's intelligent, patient & explains her diagnosis clearly with options if there is any. Thankyou Aiobheann for everything you do, especially with Bluey. All the staff at Moorabbin Vet are so lovely. I love my animals & it feels really good to know their in good hands.
Thank you Philomena, these are lovely and very true and kind words about Dr Aoibheann! We also send our condolences for your recent loss of Bluey. Team MVH. X
Fantastic experience: The gorgeous vets and staff here were wonderful throughout my pets life and even more caring at the end. I travel from Port Melbourne to them. Highly recommend.
Thank you for your kind words Denise. We are so sorry for your loss, she was a beautiful girl and we know you will miss her dearly. Sending our love. Team MVH xx
Fantastic experience: The Moorabbin AEC was amazing and helped me out in a dire situation and my pets were safe because of them. I'd like to particularly thank their receptionist and training vet Jasmine for her quick thinking on the phone and hospitality when I arrived!
Hi Adam, just letting you know that you have left this lovely review on MVH and not the AEC Moorabbin. Team MVH!
Negative experience: Brought my parents dog Milo a few months ago. Milo is 11 years old, and had glaucoma in one of the eyes, and was poorly that day. The vet suggested an operation on one of his eyes. When I said my elderly parents who are on the pension could not afford such a hefty bill, and its risky to put an elderly dog under anaesthetic and what other options we had, she casually said we should euthanise him that week. Two moths later we have a happy dog, who eats, goes for walks etc. I thought that comment was very inappropriate, considering she only saw Milo for 10 min, and had very little info about him. I still find it very upsetting when I think back on that visit. I do not remember the vet''s name, but would not recommend her
Thank you for discussing this with me last week Sasha. We are delighted that Milo is so happy - a result that was perhaps unexpected.
Our professional code dictates that we offer all options to clients, although I do understand that euthanasia is a difficult topic to be confronted with.
Regards,
Dr Jenny
Fantastic experience: My partner & I brought our 14 year old husky, Simba this morning for an emergency appointment. From the beginning, the lady on the phone (I’m so sorry I forgot your name) showed empathy and concern- something my own vet for over 10+ years did not show when I rang them. We saw Dr.Jennibelle who showed the same concerns we had for our boy. More importantly, she listened to us, answered every question we had and gave us the hope we were looking for in proper care for Simba. Thank you, and I wouldn’t hesitate to bring him back to your care in his later stages of life.
Thank you for your 5 star review Nat, we appreciate it! We hope Simba is feeling better. Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Have just gotten a puppy and have been visiting Dr Jenny at MVH - super knowledgeable & friendly. Great staff + great location. Thanks for all of your help so far. Nurse Kiah is lovely too
Thank you for your lovely review Rachel, we look forward to more cuddles with Butter soon! Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: We had two incorrect diagnoses at two other vet hospitals before meeting Dr John. We found out about this clinic too late. If we had known about this clinic earlier, our Zora girl would still be with us today. The team went above and beyond to help us during a critical time, despite only meeting us for the first time that day. The heart felt care we received was better than our previous vet who we had known for more than 18 years. We will only ever take our current & any future dogs to Dr John.
Thank you for your kind words Lisa. Team MVH. X
Fantastic experience: The vet was able to quickly see our puppy (who had eaten a foreign object) with very little notice and slightly before opening time. Very impressed with the service.
Thank you for the 5 stars Ben! We hope Hadley is staying out of trouble! Team MVH! x
Fantastic experience: Dr Angel is fantastic
Thank you Kelly, we think so too! X
Fantastic experience: The team at MVH are super friendly and caring (to patients and owners!) The adoption process for my kitten was seamless and I was given all of the information and resources I needed. The same goes for his recent check-ups & appointments - I couldn't ask for a better vet clinic & team.
Thank you for your lovely words Lauren! We are so happy that little Nino has found such a lovely furever home. Team MVH! X
Fantastic experience: Back in October 2021, our regular vet was (thanks to COVID) too busy to see our Bichon when his condition deteriorated. So with a quick google I found myself an appointment at the Moorabbin Vet Hospital within in 24hrs. The staff were polite and accommodating, showing us nothing but compassion and sympathy while we navigated the passing of our boy. From the moment we walked in the door both front and back of House teams went beyond the call of duty to help, making us feel like we were 'regulars' and nothing was too much trouble. Now I happily travel 20minutes to receive care (and lots of kisses and cuddles) for our new puppy. I can not thank MVH enough for welcoming us into their 'family'
Thank you for your kind words, we're pleased that you felt welcomed and cared for at a difficult time. We're also delighted that you're happy to stay as part of our family, with your adorable pup Billy! Team MVH! xx
Negative experience: Very poor service. I brought my cat in as he had a swollen tummy, was told it would have to be drained but they didn’t have time. They did half and was told to bring back my cat on Monday to do the rest. Then tried to pay the bill but the staff member ignored me and continued to have an aimless conversation. This used to be a wonderful place to bring my pets but it has slowly gone downhill.
Thank you for your feedback, and I understand your point of view.
Regards
Dr John Ley
Fantastic experience: Such a lovely place to take your animals. Kate was the original receptionist who was always lovely and engaging. Would take my dog in just to say hello if I was walking past. Unfortunately she no longer works there but all staff seem caring and compassionate.
Thank you for your kind review Jazz! Team MVH!
Fantastic experience: I came across Moorabbin Veterinary Hospital during Christmas as my cat got into an accident and broke her leg. This clinic has been absolutely remarkable, i could not recommend enough. I am not even from the area but willing to travel for the quality of service, kind and caring staff that I am constantly greeted with. Not only were they super informative, but i also felt that they genuinely cared and wanted to help at the most economical price. After spending hours prior calling other clinics and animal hospitals, only to receive ridiculous prices, I came across Moorabbin Vet Hospital. They saw me straight away ( even on a public holiday), had the MOST reasonable price i had ever come across and actually gave me proper information. I was updated via email and text, the service was unmatched. I am so grateful to all the reception staff and the VET Jenny who performed my cats surgery. After several weeks of bad luck, finding this clinic was a true blessing. I will most definitely be travelling there from here on out!
Thank you for you lovely words Nicole! We are glad we were able to help during a stressful time for you both. Please give Shady a cuddle from us, and we look forward to your next visit! Team MVH! Xx
Fantastic experience: The saddest day arrived on Monday when we had to make that awful decision to put our beautiful 11 year old terrier to sleep. As everyone knows as you’re reading this post it’s heartbreaking . With the covid situation as it is , some clinics won’t allow you in as a couple to say your final farewell , however, John and his wonderful team allowed my husband and I to be with Ted as he got his wings to fly while both cuddling him in the car with the sun shining outside. An experience that no pet owner wants to go through was made as best it could by this kind practice. Please chose these guys, you will never be disappointed by their level of expertise and compassion.
Oh Judi, thank you so much for your beautiful words. We are so glad you were both able to spend those precious moments with darling Ted. Sending our love, Team MVH. X
Fantastic experience: When that horrible day comes and you have to say goodbye to a loved member of your family as they head off to rainbow bridge the staff here make it as pain free as they can
We are comforted to know that we could make those last moments as smooth as we could. Sending you both our love. Team MVH, X.
Fantastic experience: Moorabbin Veterinary Hospital is the best vets I've ever been to. The doctors are friendly, knowledgeable and good at explaining issues and options for treatment. They provide great behavioral advice and general advice for a pets well being. The receptionists and nurses are also second to none and create a really welcoming atmosphere. I've been going to them for roughly 5 years now and have seen several different doctors and all have been good. Even the passing of one of my pets was greatly eased by their considerate handling of such a difficult event. I honestly can't recommend them highly enough.
Thank you for your kind sentiments Cara, it means a lot to the team to hear them! We hope Griffin is feeling better! Team MVH! X

Fantastic experience: Quite simply some of the best people you will ever come across, both professional and personable. They have constantly treated my four-legged babies like they are members of their own family; with genuine compassion, love and dignity. I could not recommend them any higher. I live well outside of the Moorabbin area but will always take my fur-babies to them.
Thank you Ryan, such lovely words! We are honoured that you continue to trust us with your fur-babies. From the whole team at MVH! X

Fantastic experience: The medical staff at Moorabbin Veterinary Hospital helped me and my cat through the painful but necessary process of diagnosing my cat's terminal condition and the very thoughtful and caring experience of euthanasia. I wish to thank them.
Thank you for your kind words Malcolm, Dr Kelene and Dr Sarah value that they could support you during this difficult time. The team at MVH xx
Negative experience: Took my cat in one afternoon due to him not moving and not eating. On arrival we were told he had a very high temp around the 41 mark and they would like to keep him overnight to run test and get him on fluids. The next morning they called me to tell me his temp had risen with his blood test results and ultrasound coming back in gold condition. They kept him for 2 nights, climbing the bill to 1500 to be told they don't know what's wrong with him and these things happen. Animals just fall sick with no explanation and there was nothing more they could do. Upset and still having a sick cat, I took him to another vet to find out he has fiv. It has been almost 2 weeks and my cat is still sick and running a fever. I was sent home with no explanations. He is now bring cared for by a new vet that won't rob me of my money and give me awnsers.
Hi Steph, thank you for your feedback. I am sorry to hear about your experience as we pride ourselves on a high standard of veterinary care. I am sorry to hear that he is still unwell and we hope that he recovers soon. If you would like to discuss this further with me, please contact Dr John Ley, on 9555 4808.
Fantastic experience: I just want to say thank you to the team at MVH, especially Dr Aoibheann for saving our cat's life yesterday. We were fearing the worst with the diagnosis of heart failure, and are so glad that he is able to come home with us the same day. We have been going to MVH for a few years, and have always received the best advice and care for our cat.
Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend this clinic highly enough, I would not take my pet anywhere else. The staff are always very caring and kind. Thankyou so much to Dr. Aoibheann Clarke for always treating my cat Chilli with gentleness and compassion and for your expert care. Aiobheann always took time to explain in detail Chilli’s incurable condition and our options, however we never felt rushed and our wishes were always respected. Also a big thankyou to Kate who displayed great understanding and compassion and who went above and beyond to assist in her final arrangements. If I get a new addition I know where I will go for expert veterinary care.
Thank you for your lovely review Carol. We are glad that we were able to offer you care in Chilli's treatment and in her passing. Our sympathies again, the team at MVH. X
