🏡🐾 Did you know we offer weekday house calls?

We know that sometimes getting your animals to the clinic isn’t always easy, so we can bring veterinary care to you! 💙

House calls are an option for:
🐱 Animals who get stressed, anxious, struggle with car trips or being transported
🐮 Large animals who are difficult to move or transport
🐾 Owners who have difficulty getting their animals to the clinic
🕊️ Pets nearing the end of their life, allowing families to say goodbye in the comfort and familiarity of home.

Our team is here to help make accessing veterinary care easier for both you and your animals.

📞 Give our clinic a call to discuss whether a house call is suitable for your animal and arrange a visit.

Meet the Team 🩺🐾
Introducing Lisa, one of our wonderful hospital nurses who has been part of our clinic family for the past 4 years! 💙

Lisa’s journey into vet nursing started thanks to her best friend, who introduced her to the job and helped her become the vet nurse she is today. With a lifelong love of animals, she knew she wanted a career working with them for as long as she can remember! 🐶🐱🐴

At home, Lisa has a whole crew of her own, including 4 dogs, 4 horses and a rescued cat from our very own clinic! 🐾 Three of her dogs are her favourite breed, Australian Cattle Dogs, but she also has a soft spot for her scruffy little Jack Russell Terrier. ❤️

If there’s one thing you’ll find Lisa doing around the clinic, it’s cuddling an animal! Her favourite patients are the extra-smoochy, affectionate snuggle bugs. And her dream animal to work with? A meerkat! 🐾

A few more fun facts about Lisa:
🍫 Go-to clinic snack: Chocolate
💩 Most common saying: “I smell a poo!”
🏹 Wildest case: A large-breed puppy who swallowed an ENTIRE suction cup arrow from a kids’ bow and arrow set!
🐾 Small animals, large animals or exotics? ALL OF THE ABOVE!

We’re so lucky to have Lisa’s big heart, love for animals and willingness to get involved with just about anything that comes through our doors!

Next time you see Lisa in the clinic, be sure to say hello! 👋

Meet the Team!🩺🐾
Dr Kara has been part of the Jimboomba Vet Surgery family for 15 years! She first joined us as a vet nurse in 2011 while studying at uni, before returning as a vet in 2016.👩🏼‍⚕️

Her passion for animals began in Year 4 after a wildlife ranger & koala visited her school and inspired her to pursue a career working with animals every day! 🐾

Kara loves the variety of veterinary life, from medicine and surgery to large animal work. Her smallest-ever patient was a tiny lizard that fit in the palm of her hand! 🦎

💗 Her favourite part of the job: Building lifelong relationships with pets and their owners, from their first puppy or kitten visits through to their golden years.

🌙 Something clients might not realise is just how much dedication goes into caring for their pets. Kara has even driven to the clinic in the middle of the night just to check on her patients!

🐶 A case she’ll never forget: A dog ate an entire pair of pantyhose, requiring the removal of half its small intestine. Despite developing short gut syndrome, the pup made a full recovery and now lives a normal life with a dietary change!

🦷 Kara is passionate about regular health checks and dental care, as dental disease can cause significant pain, infection and complications affecting vital organs.

☕ Clinic fuel: Coffee and sweet treats!
🐱 Favourite cat breed: Burmese, she has one of her own!
🐕 Favourite dog breeds: Great Danes and Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. Two very different-sized lap dogs! 😂
💙Favourite part of our clinics: The team, the friendships and the support everyone shares.

Thank you, Dr Kara, for your dedication, compassion and the care you give every patient and their family. We’re so lucky to have you on our team! 🐾

Meet the Team!🩺🐾
Introducing Ellie, one of our veterinary nurses who has been part of our team for 5 years!
Growing up surrounded by cats, dogs, horses and all kinds of farm animals, becoming a vet nurse felt like the perfect career for Ellie. 🐶🐴🐱

🏥You’ll find Ellie working across reception and hospital nursing from greeting clients and triaging patients to running diagnostics and caring for emergency cases.

🐍 Her favourite cases? Snake bite and tick patients. Ellie loves following their journey from critical care through to the day they’re ready to head home, building a special bond with them along the way. ❤️‍🩹

🩺 Dream specialty: Veterinary reproductive nursing
🐕 Favourite dogs: Mastiffs & anything with a big chunky head
🐈 Favourite cats: Sphynx cats
☕🍕 Clinic fuel: Iced chai + pepperoni pizza

😂 Her “I’m a vet nurse” moment: Spotting a dog out and about with an excellent jugular or cephalic vein and thinking, “That would be a great blood draw!” 🩸

💙Ellie’s tip for pet owners: Tell us the little things! Special commands, how your pet likes to be handled, their favourite treats (or foods they refuse!) these details help us make their visit as comfortable and positive as possible.

We’re so lucky to have Ellie on our team! 🐾

Say hi to Ellie next time you see her! 👋🏼

🐾 Cat available for Adoption!🐾
This sweet little man has been in our care for the past few weeks after coming into Jimboomba Vet Surgery as a stray. He arrived with no microchip and no collar, and despite our efforts to reunite him with his family including posting on lost and found pet pages. Unfortunately, no owner has come forward.

So now, we’re hoping to find this gorgeous boy a loving forever home. 🏡🐱

He is a desexed male Domestic Short Hair with the sweetest nature. He’s quiet, relaxed and absolutely adorable. Once he’s had a little time to warm up to you, he loves nothing more than cuddles and a good head scratch. 🥹❤️

We haven’t yet assessed him with other pets, so his compatibility with other cats or dogs is currently unknown.If you think you could be the forever family this handsome boy has been waiting for, we’d love to arrange a meet & greet!

📞 07 5546 9540
📧 [email protected]

Please share this post to help us find him the loving home he deserves. 🐾❤️

Meet the Team🩺🐾
Dr Peter Ko MANZCVS Veterinary Practice (Small Animals) has been part of our veterinary team for 8.5 years and brings a passion for solving some of the most challenging cases that walk through our doors.

🔬 If he could specialise in anything?
Internal medicine! Peter would love to focus on diagnosing and managing complex, chronic and multi-system diseases especially the cases that require a little extra detective work. 🕵️‍♂️
🐹 Most unusual procedure?
A guinea pig caesarean!
🩻 Most unusual X-ray finding?
Kebab skewers… in a dog! 🌭
🐱 Favourite cat breed?
Chinchillas.
🐶 Favourite dog breed?
Anything Arctic!❄️
☕ Clinic fuel?
Several coffees throughout the day!

❤️ Favourite part of being a vet?
For Peter, it’s the challenge of solving complicated cases and seeing the difference that treatment can make not just to the animal, but to the families who find it incredibly difficult to watch their furry family members become sick.

💬 One of the challenging parts?
Helping owners navigate the difference between what we would ideally recommend medically and what is realistically achievable for them and their pet. Every pet and every family is different, and sometimes the hardest part of veterinary medicine is having honest, compassionate conversations about treatment options, prognosis and what can realistically be achieved.

✨ And the most rewarding part?
Watching a patient’s condition improve and seeing the joy on their family’s faces when they’re finally able to take their furry family member home.

We’re lucky to have Peter’s experience, curiosity and compassion as part of our team. 💙
Thanks for everything you do, Peter! 🐾
