Macquarie Veterinary Hospital

Best For

• Long-term relationships across a pet's entire life span, from puppy vaccinations to senior cancer care
• greyhounds and anxious or reactive animals who need patience
• owners who want transparent discussions about treatment options without pressure
• North Shore families who value a practice that remembers them across years and multiple pets

• 🏥Serious cases handled in-house with collaborative careMultiple reviews describe emergency surgeries, cancer treatment, blocked urethras, and IVDD cases coordinated between their clinic and sister facility AVC.
• 🦴Greyhound expertise that's genuinely specialisedReviewers specifically praise "great expertise with greyhounds" and note multiple vets who know exactly how to handle this breed's anxiety and medical quirks.
• 💰Honest advice without the upsell pressureMultiple reviews explicitly thank the practice for not "constantly trying to upsell" and for assessing pets properly "before recommending any treatment, ensuring you're never faced with unnecessary or costly procedures." One owner facing their dog's terminal cancer values having options "explained PROPERLY" so they could choose between surgery, chemo, or palliative care based on real information, not sales tactics.
• 🐾Pets who actually want to visitRepeated mentions of dogs pulling to get in the door, cats purring non-stop during exams, and one puppy who "genuinely enjoys visiting the clinic and happily greets the staff." Free nurse appointments for medication administration, complimentary calming meds before anxious visits, and six-monthly free dental checks create an environment one reviewer describes as having "an air of calmness" despite the busy workload behind the scenes.
