Housed in a spacious, renovated building, it has all the usual equipment, including small animal ultrasound and digital x-ray machine and is computerised with RxWorks software. The clinic also has a large animal ultrasound and in-house laboratory.

The practice is located in a friendly town in the centre of a prosperous dairy area of northern Victoria. The area boasts a pleasant, warm and sunny climate all year round, and all the usual sporting, social and educational facilities are easily accessible. It is just twenty minutes from a large rural city and the Murray River, and within a reasonable driving distance of the snow during winter.

30/9/21 Comments from a 2020 grad: I started here as a new graduate. It is a really fun team to work with. The nurses are really helpful. The other vets were fantastic to work with. It is a supportive practice. There is a very good mix of work and lots of exposure to an excellent caseload.
