We have just had the most amazing experience from Rob and the dedicated nursing team after our Burmese kitten 'Snickers' decided to eat the rubber rim from around our washing machine! Their dedication, attention to detail and care for us as well as snickers went above and beyond what you could only hope for. We will be forever greatful to you all for saving our affectionate and somewhat cheeky rascal! A huge heartfelt thanks once again!

Dr Rob is great, gives my highly strung dufus dog all the time he needs to get through our visits and explains things really well to me. The nurses are really sweet and friendly. We always feel really supported after visits here, especially compared to some vets. That’s the reason I drive all the way from Croydon rather than taking my babies to the vets in my area.

I'm so pleased to have recently found this clinic! Dr Rob and the staff are incredibly caring, gentle and warm. They ensure that your beloved pet is as comfortable as possible in what can sometimes be a stressful situation. The 24hr emergency service is invaluable! It was such a comfort to have access to the vet outside of business hours when our dog was showing some worrying symptoms. Thank you, Ivanhoe East Veterinary Hospital!

Thanks so much for seeing our collapsed chicken last night. Cinnamon is doing really much better today. Thanks so much for the personalised care, calmness, understanding and also great sense of humor during our visit. Will definitely be switching to your clinic to care for our animal family. Thanks again and highly recommend to all.

Best vet clinic ever. The team are hard working and always helpful. Rob the vet is amazing and can always be trusted to be informative, compassionate and thorough. even the dental cleaning is affordable over any other vet we've tried.
This vet is a hidden gem.

We have the most gorgeous divine Ragdoll cat Ellie Grace who has a life threatening parasite. Rob is amazing & so caring. He even phoned me on his day off to give me an update on her results as he knew we would be anxious. He is the best vet doctor & we highly recommend him to all you animal lovers.

We at Forever Friends Animal Rescue cannot recommend Ivanhoe East Vet Hospital highly enough. Dr Rob, Karrie and all the staff are incredibly dedicated and caring towards our rescue animals, and treat them equally to their other patients. All our volunteers love visiting this clinic and are hugely grateful for the care they give.

The Ivanhoe East Vet team did a great job of looking after our precious cats Sam and Dean [in the cattery] during the holidays. We were a bit nervous at first - two weeks is a long time away from home! But Sam and Dean seem to have enjoyed their stay, and have settled in back home in a matter of minutes. Thanks everyone for taking such good care of them (and dealing with Sam's temper tantrums)
