We FINALLY have news!
For those who aren't aware; Doreen District Vets acquired a block of land next to McDonalds on Bridge Inn Road back in May 2024.
We were so happy to expand our practice and provide a much needed service to the community and were overwhelmed with the excitement from all the local pet parents, future veterinary graduates, work experience kids, and vets & nurses asking to work with us.
We submitted our plans to the Whittlesea Council Planning Department after extensive consultation with builders, developers, architects, traffic engineers and local town planners.
We thought it would be a straightforward process but we were bitterly disappointed.
For more than a year we battled for a planning permit. We fought to convince them that the community wanted a vet clinic. After so many redesigns and delays we were considering whether it was worth it at all.
Well, it finally happened. We got approval.
Doreen District Vets is building a BRAND NEW CLINIC to be open next year!!
To prepare for the opening of our clinic we will be closing down our pop-up and mobile services from December. We will still be available via email for general advice and ongoing medication needs for our existing patients, although please be patient as we are busy behind the scenes creating something fantastic.
Thank you to all our lovely clients for supporting us over these hard times. We appreciate the kind words, encouragement and empathy you have shown us over these couple years and we look forward to seeing you for many more years to come!
Warm Regards,
Dr Louise and Kirstie
