Owner Review Summary
Distilled from Google reviews — see what pet owners actually say
👍What Pet Owners Praised
Owners consistently praised the caring, empathetic team and clear, proactive communication from both vets and nurses. Many noted thorough examinations, same-day or urgent appointments when needed, and gentle handling of anxious pets, including desensitisation “happy visits.” Several reviews highlighted strong outcomes in complex cases, compassionate end‑of‑life support with thoughtful follow‑ups, and staff who go the extra mile, such as check‑in calls and help to and from the car.
💬Common Feedback & Suggestions
Reviews were overwhelmingly positive, with a few concerns raised about pricing, including perceived high costs, script fees that weren’t expected, and one case disputing the number of teeth recommended for extraction. A small number of reviewers questioned medical decisions (including one alleged misdiagnosis) or felt communication was defensive when concerns were raised. One reviewer mentioned not being offered triennial vaccinations, and another noted a short post‑consult wait for paperwork. Most feedback, however, commended the clinic’s responsiveness and follow‑up when issues were raised.

🐾Tips for Pet Owners
- If your pet is anxious, ask about ‘happy visits’ or desensitisation sessions to make future exams easier.
- Call ahead for urgent issues—many reviewers were seen the same day or accommodated at short notice.
- Request an itemised estimate (including any script fees) and discuss options up front to avoid bill surprises.
- If you have mobility needs or a large dog, let reception know—nurses have helped owners to and from the car.
- For vaccinations, ask about protocol options (e.g., triennial schedules) so the plan matches your preferences.

Lathlain Veterinary Hospital is located in the suburb of Lathlain, Perth WA 6100.

Veterinary fees in Australia aren’t regulated by a government fee schedule and Medicare doesn’t cover pets, so prices vary by clinic and by your pet’s needs. For the most up-to-date consultation fee, call the clinic and request an itemised written estimate for any procedures (including tests, medications, anaesthesia and hospital care). As they provide urgent and emergency care, be aware that urgent or after-hours fees are typically higher. Many pet owners use pet insurance, and some clinics offer gap claims or payment plans (e.g., VetPay, Afterpay, GapOnly)—ask what options are available to you.
Australian vet clinics commonly accept EFTPOS, Visa/Mastercard and tap-and-go (Apple Pay/Google Pay); some also support pet-insurance gap claims or payment plans. Please call ahead to confirm what this clinic accepts before your visit.
They provide urgent and emergency care; for emergencies during opening hours, call for advice and attend as directed. For after-hours situations outside the listed hours, call ahead for guidance or seek a 24/7 emergency veterinary hospital in Perth.
