Have your furry friend cared for by a team of awesome vets who have access to some of the best medical facilities on the Tweed Coast. You will find us in picturesque Cabarita Beach. It's not far from the ocean and there's a great beach walk for your dog just around the corner. We pride ourselves on working as a team to provide the best quality care for your pet, in a friendly and caring environment.
We are community orientated, helping to support local community organisations such as Friends of the Pound. So if your pet needs their annual check up and vaccination, or is unwell and requires medical attention, give us a call to make an appointment! My puppy is extremely anxious about seeing the vet and was starting to bark and growl due to her anxiety.

Fang is really the main person you need to know in the vet surgery. That's right, although she looks a lot like a labradoodle, she is convinced she is actually a person. She is not always present as she has a busy schedule, including several days a week at Dog Safari.
When she is in the clinic however, she is often far too busy supervising the treat jar to always be on show, but late afternoons she enjoys coming out to the reception area to remind us that it is time for her treat and afternoon walk.Born in 2007, Fang was destined to be a star. She has starred in many on stage performances.

What We Do
Report
Here at TCV we understand that coming to the vets can be stressful for our feline patients. That's why we have a designated cat-only waiting area, consult room, and separate hospitalisation facilities, away from those barking dogs. Our cat room is also equipped with a feline blood pressure monitor for stress-free B.P measurement in our older patients.

Nurses
Report
Time in industry: I have been working at Tweed Coast Vet for roughly 2 years. I have been involved in the animal industry learning and studying since I was 15 years old. Special interests: I am interested in surgeries in general and I find x-rays and ultrasounds very interesting. And of course getting to cuddle all the cute animals that come through the doors.
Reception
Report
Roles: Reception and practice manager. Pets: Sox A 3 year old cat who we adopted through Friends of the Pound. We also have a new addition, Baxter the 'bitser' dog, approx 2yrs old, who recently joined our family from AWLQ. Fun fact - When Sox was around 10 months old he was run over and we thought he would lose his back leg.
