Animal Eye Care was the first stand-alone veterinary referral practice in Australia and has set the standard for providing the highest level of patient care and veterinary ophthalmology for nearly 30 years. We are focussed on the care and wellbeing of the patient and their carers. We do not sell “stuff” and aim to provide the best and most compassionate medical and surgical care.

• Being the friendly face and voice of the clinic
• Managing client calls and inquiries
• Greeting patients and their carers as they enter the clinic
