Welcome to Hervey Bay Vet Surgery

Welcome to Hervey Bay Vet Surgery and thank you for taking the time to have a look at our website. At our clinic, we have an experienced vet team, with a wonderful support team available to help you with your pet’s health care needs. Our current lead vet is Dr. Megan Devlin, she is supported by Dr. Jason Tait, Dr. Nicole Rutledge, Dr. Danielle Melhuish, and Dr. Louise Barbesgaard. As a team, they have vast knowledge in small animal consults, surgery, rehabilitation, emergency, and medical cases. We also offer horse and farm animal consults for most species. For large animal emergencies or urgent care, we may need to refer you, depending on the situation.

Our team strives to provide a high standard of veterinary care to the animals of the Hervey Bay community. We offer professional, up to date advice and aim to continue the bonds and trust with our long-term clients that was previously established by Dr. Ron McKay. We also love to welcome new clients and their furry family members to our clinic.

As a clinic, we offer:

  • Vaccinations and routine health checks
  • Emergency consults
  • Small animal surgery; including desexing, soft tissue surgery, abdominal surgery and more

BEST FOR PET

Best for Pet is a fantastic pet health care plan that we offer in clinic. It is similar to our previous CritterCare program with some added and alternative benefits. Best for Pet members receive free consultations and get some great discounts on their pets health care. To learn more, ask for more information next time you are in the clinic. 

CONSULTATIONS BY APPOINTMENT

We run our consultations by appointment. If your pet requires vet attention, please call (07) 4124 4679 to speak with one of our team members to book a time. If you would like a specific vet or if your pet has a specific problem, please be sure to let us know so we can provide tailored care for you and your pet.

EMERGENCY

If it is within our open hours and your pet is in a critical condition or you believe they need URGENT care please call (07) 4124 4679. We can provide emergency care but in these situations, we appreciate a phone call to let us know you are coming so we can prepare appropriately for your pets arrival. There may be rare situations where we do not have a vet available, if you call first we can give you the information you need to get your pet seen as soon as possible. The vet clinics in Hervey Bay work together to provide an after hours service to our area. This means that it may be a different clinic on call, depending on which night of the week it is. If you believe your pet needs urgent care at a time when the clinic is closed, please call (07) 4124 4679 and the recording will provide instructions on who to call.

BIRDS AND SMALL MAMMALS

We often get asked whether we do consultations for exotic pets like birds, rats, reptiles and guinea pigs. These animals are not our specialty. We are happy to provide basic vet care, by appointment only, to these pets but if you want in depth, experienced advice for exotic animals we suggest you look for a veterinarian with a special interest in the species of animal you own.
