ROUTINE HEALTHCARE & CONSULTATIONS

FOR PETS OF ALL AGES

Routine Healthcare & Consultations

Supporting your pets through every stage of life - from first vaccinations to senior health.

At Nowra Veterinary Hospital and Bay & Basin Animal Hospital, we believe in proactive, personalised care for every pet - whether they’re a playful new puppy, a curious kitten, or a beloved senior companion. Our consultations are thorough, thoughtful, and always guided by what matters most: your pet’s comfort and long-term well-being.

We provide a complete range of routine healthcare services for cats, dogs, birds, exotic pets, and more.

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING A CONSULTATION

During our veterinary consultations, we take the time to understand your concerns and thoroughly examine your pet.

Visits includes a comprehensive clinical exam. Whether you're visiting for a vaccination or a general check-up, our vets perform a full head-to-paw assessment, which may include:

  • Checking eyes, ears, teeth, and gums
  • Listening to the heart and lungs
  • Examining skin and coat for any signs of irritation or parasites
  • Feeling the abdomen and muscles for lumps, bumps or tenderness
  • Reviewing weight, appetite, and any behaviour changes
  • Tailored advice for your pet’s breed, age, and lifestyle

If something doesn’t look quite right - for example, a new lump, a persistent cough, or a change in appetite - we’ll discuss your options with you clearly and compassionately. Our goal is to identify issues early and manage them in-house wherever possible, saving you the cost and stress of specialist referrals.
