Health Care and Wellness Consultations

Stephen Terrace Veterinary Clinic is passionate about providing exemplary care to our patients, in order that they may live quality, healthy, comfortable and lengthy lives. We all know that our animals age more quickly than we humans. For example, one dog or cat year equates to seven human years. The cornerstone of any lifelong healthcare plan is based on regular health checks, relevant to their age and stage of life.

All health care at Stephen Terrace Veterinary Clinic is based around our healthcare (or wellness) consultation. These are performed twice yearly. Some services are combined with these visits, eg. when your pet’s vaccination falls due. If there are concerns which require extra support, further visits, consultations or hospital services can be scheduled appropriately
