Birds, reptiles, small mammals (guinea pigs, rats and mice) and fish have specific requirements that differ to those of more traditional domestic pets and Brisbane Bird and Exotics Veterinary Service is proud to cater to the special needs of our patients. We work together with you, the owner, to maximize the health and longevity of your pet.
Preventative Health ProgramA cornerstone of maintaining wellness in birds and exotic pets is regular preventative health examinations. These examinations use a combination of physical examination and diagnostic testing to assess your pet for any early signs of disease, as early identification of disease provides the best chance of successful resolution. A health check is also a fantastic opportunity to give the husbandry, feeding and behavioural management of your pet a ‘once-over’.New Pet/Post-Purchase ExaminationsWe recommend veterinary assessment of all new pets. This is important for early identification of abnormalities and is particularly relevant if you already own birds or exotic pets, as some diseases can spread rapidly from the new arrival to the other animals in your household. If you are new to bird or exotic pet ownership, this initial consultation will ensure that you start your ownership armed with the most up-to-date knowledge for that particular species.We aim to provide the highest quality of professional service to our clients and patients, We look forward to working with you to achieve the optimal health and contentment of your pet!
