About us
Furkids is far from the ordinary practice! We provide specialised, high-quality treatments and are looking for an experienced vet with robust surgical, medical and leadership skills to join our team.
Located in Greenbank, a rural residential suburb southwest of Brisbane, Furkids is a modern, all-inclusive clinic with advanced diagnostics, expertise, and professional service. Our high caseload includes fascinating patients, such as Brachycephalic breeds, complex medical cases, and reproduction.
Our facility is well-equipped with in-house pathology, x-ray, dental, ultrasound, endoscope, and more. We invest heavily in our staff and equipment, allowing comprehensive in-house care.
We prioritise our patients and are committed to practicing outstanding medicine. We value every individual, going above and beyond for our patients.
The vets and nurses here are second to none. They treat both of my collies like their own and always make us feel welcome and at complete ease whenever we visit. I recommend them to anyone who will listen – Jasmine W – Google Review
