Bellarine Veterinary Practice, Geelong
Bellarine Veterinary Practice, Geelong, provides quality care for life for pets of all kinds and sizes. We have been part of the Geelong community for more than 45 years, starting when founding partners, veterinarians Ewen McMillan and David Hopkins, established the first clinic. Ewen and David have now retired, but their legacy continues through the values of the practice.
Since it began, Bellarine Veterinary Practice has grown from one vet clinic to six, with four of these clinics being fully equipped veterinary hospitals. The main practice at Newcomb has been Geelong’s only accredited Australian Veterinary Association (ASAV) hospital since 1990.
With an increased number of clinics, more staff are required. Today Geelong’s Bellarine Veterinary Practice employs more than 120 people including veterinarians, nurses, receptionists, administration staff, pet groomers and hospital attendants. Our entire team is committed to our practice’s core values of honesty, reliability, unity, care, and a sense of fun.
Our team insists on the highest standards in facilities and equipment, which means you can be assured of the highest quality care for your pet, whether it’s a kitten or pocket pet, mouse, dog or bird. Naturally we back up our quality care with Geelong’s most extensive range of veterinary services for every stage of your pet’s life, from preventative health to dog training and grooming.
Our company slogan is “Quality Care for Life” meaning that we provide quality care for our patients at every life stage.
Our company vision
“To provide the best individual solutions to all pet problems and to be the best veterinary workplace.”
This means that we work with you, the clients and patients, to provide tailored solutions and treatment options that will suit your situation and we want to attract and retain the best veterinary staff available to provide that high quality care sustainably.
