CAIRNS VETS (AND THEIR PETS)
Cairns Vet Clinic employs 7 Cairns vets, Dr John Robertson, Dr Catherine Mackenzie, Dr Dallas McMillan, Lizzie Jensen, Murray Gosney, Owen (Taffy) Williams and Victoria Turner. Our vets possess a wide range of medical and surgical expertise covering all common small animal health problems. All our vets undergo ongoing professional development including attending a week long veterinary conference or training session annually.
Cairns vet's veterinarians all consult and perform surgery, and spend time at both our main clinic at Pease St and our branch clinics to ensure they develop well-rounded skills.
Our large veterinary workforce allows us provide our own 24 hour emergency after hours services and serve 3 locations at Aeroglen, Pease St Manunda and Gordonvale.
Cairns Vet Clinic vets all have training and experience to deal with common Cairns Pet Problems.
