Owner Review Summary
Distilled from Google reviews — see what pet owners actually say
👍What Pet Owners Praised
Owners repeatedly praised the team’s compassion, clear communication and thorough, skilful care. Many cited excellent outcomes for surgeries and procedures (from deep laceration repairs and dentals to urgent cases), thoughtful follow‑up, and a calm, low‑stress approach that put even anxious seniors at ease. Same‑day help in emergencies and staff who stayed late or reshuffled appointments were also highlighted.
💬Common Feedback & Suggestions
Reviews are overwhelmingly positive. A few practical downsides came up: the clinic can be a bit hard to find and parking is tight, and a small number of older reviews mentioned a brusque interaction or a strict upfront‑payment policy in emergencies. These instances were rare compared with the strong volume of praise and long‑term loyalty.

🐾Tips for Pet Owners
- If your pet is anxious, ask about pre‑visit sedation and low‑stress handling options—they’re used effectively here for nervous animals and seniors.
- For urgent issues, call ahead or book online; the team often fits in same‑day emergencies and may stay back when needed.

- Discuss treatment plans and costs upfront—staff are transparent and happy to explain options in detail.
- After procedures, keep your phone handy for follow‑up calls and clarify home‑care instructions before you leave.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are the questions pet owners ask most often — tap a question to read the full answer. For other concerns, please consult a licensed veterinarian.
Hilltop Veterinary Hospital is in Kalamunda, WA 6076, in Perth’s Hills. As there isn’t a train or light‑rail station within easy walking distance, driving is usually the simplest option. Street parking is available nearby, but it can be tight at busy times—allow a little extra time and check local signage. If you’re using public transport, check Google Maps for the best bus route. The clinic can be a bit tricky to find, so arriving a few minutes early helps.
They’re open Monday to Friday 8:00 am–6:00 pm and Saturday 8:00 am–1:00 pm, and closed on Sundays. Hours may vary around public holidays—call ahead to confirm.

You can book online via the clinic’s website or call to arrange a time. For urgent issues, call ahead as the team often fits in same‑day emergencies. Because parking can be limited and the location a little hard to spot, aim to arrive a few minutes early.
Veterinary fees in Australia aren’t government‑regulated and vary by clinic and by case, so call the clinic for a current consultation quote. For any procedure, ask for an itemised written estimate so you understand what’s included. If you require after‑hours care at an emergency hospital, fees are typically higher than daytime consults. Pet insurance can help with unexpected costs, and some clinics offer payment‑plan or gap‑claim options—ask what’s available.
Most Australian vet clinics commonly accept EFTPOS, Visa/Mastercard and tap‑and‑go (Apple Pay/Google Pay), and some offer pet‑insurance gap claims or payment plans. Please call ahead to confirm what this clinic accepts on the day.
