Community Engagement

Because people and pets beyond Frankston need help too!

Pets in the Park

This National charity provides veterinary care to the pets of those experiencing homelessness. Clients are referred by their service providers ensuring those most in need receive care.

Staffed by volunteer vets and nurses with the support of sponsors and donations from the public, pop-up clinics are run once a month and provide routine health care, parasite control, vaccinations and microchipping free of charge.

Search and Rescue Dogs Australia

We proudly support Search and Rescue Dogs Australia (SARDA)

This wonderful group of volunteers and their dogs based on the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria, is trained to international standards in Search and Rescue. SARDA members are also based in NSW & Qld.

Frankston Heights Vet Centre provides veterinary care to SARDA dogs injured on deployment or in training and advises the team on first aid.

Australian Companion Animal Health Foundation

.The Australian Companion Animal Health Foundation is a charity run by the Australian Veterinary Association. The purpose of the foundation is to raise funds which support ethical research to make the lives of our pets longer, more comfortable, and free of disease.

At Frankston Heights Veterinary Centre, we make a voluntary donation to ACAHF every time we farewell one of our patients. That way, something sad always leads to something good.

Golden Retriever Rescue

We are proud to support the tireless volunteers at Golden Retriever Rescue, who strive to find forever homes for Goldies in need.

Having the opportunity to care for these newly rescued dogs and make a difference in their lives is truly rewarding.

Colliewobbles Rescue & Rehoming Australia

The Western Arnhem Land & Daly River Dog Health Project

Since 2005 Frankston Heights Vet Centre has contributed to the work of this volunteer group of vets and final year vet students, providing health care to dogs in indigenous communities.

Co-founded by our own Dr Lucy White, each year the teams return (by invitation) to provide desexing and parasite control, and other veterinary care as needed.

Donations of medications and other supplies from our generous clients and veterinary industry suppliers help fund the programme and ensure it continues from year to year.

The bond built with the communities and the improved health of the dogs and cats in those communities is immensely valued by all.

"Lovely Caring People"

 

We needed a vet urgently after being told by our Mount Eliza vet of 20 years that we had to wait 3 hours! We were seen immediately here.  A terrible day made just that bit easier because of these lovely caring people.  Thank you!

"I Highly Recommend Frankston Heights Vet Clinic"

 

I have been attending Frankston Heights Vet Clinic for many many years – Why? Because their level of service, their level of care and the clinic itself is just of the highest grade. The animals’ welfare is always their first priority – not the money side of things. I highly recommend the Frankston Heights Vet Clinic.

"Such Good Staff"

 

Such good staff. Called around with inquiries when my pup was getting get vaccinations as I wasn't happy with the service of the vet I was going to, and this was the only vet clinic who happily answered all my questions no matter how stupid they were.

"The Best Care At The Best Price"

 

Thank you Frankston Heights vet clinic for helping our whippet Zelda with her leg injury at such short notice and on Christmas Eve. Our other whippets are patients of your clinic too and we always feel they're getting the best care and at the best price also.

"Simply exceptional"

Will and his team are simply exceptional. When our dog got sick they went above and beyond to care for him. When it was time to say goodbye we felt so supported by Will, he was so caring and thoughtful. I cannot recommend this incredible team highly enough. Our newest additions are just as well cared for and we won’t be going anywhere else. Thank you for everything you have done for us guys x

"Answered all my questions"

Such good staff. Called around with inquiries when my pup was getting get vaccinations, and this was the only vet clinic who happily answered all my questions no matter how stupid they were. Had her last vaccine done here and her desexing on Friday, and they didn't even care this morning when I rocked up unannounced with my pup cause I was worried - she was seen straight away and the vet and vet nurses were so lovely and informative and 100% made me feel a lot calmer. Thanks to the staff so much!

"Amazing"

The team at Frankston Heights Vet centre are amazing. Our dog Sailor recently lost her fight with skin cancer. We have taken her here for many years and the staff got to know her and adored her as much as we did over this time. Thank you for helping us keep her for 12 amazing years.
