    Awesome customer service from the Vet nurses at Bondi Junction Vet.
    I took my little princess in for a check up and vaccination. She had been leaving some wee surprises in my laundry, but the Vet here was able to reassure my suspicions that she was just actually being a douche bag cat, and it probably wasnt medical.

    The vet nurses were friendly and caring.
    Parking is at a premium but f you sneak into the Library car park next door you get 1 1/2 free there, or try and nab one in the office works car park.

    It's just a pity I can't give a nil star rating, even that would be to much. The Botany Mascot Community Cat Carers is a Charitable NFP group that cares for, feeds and advocates for the cat colonies and stray cats in our area. This evening we spent time trapping a sick juvenile female from a colony who was in need of immediate care. The usual vet's we use had closed but we were told by BJVH that they could see her. One of our members spent time driving her to the BJVH to deliver her to their care. On arriving at the vet's the vet nurse attempted to transfer her from the trap she was in to a cage. At the same time the vet on call wandered into the room where this was happening leaving the door to the room wide open. The terrified cat fled out of the trap, the room and the veterinary hospital. Even though she was in their care when this happened the staff refused to take responsibility for their actions. The staff first attempted to blame the member who'd dropped off the cat, stating , she told us she wanted the trap so we had to transfer the cat to another cage. Our member did not ask them to do this. Later in conversation with our member the Vet who'd left the door open indicated that "it will all work out" as the cat would magically cat return to the BJVH, or that they would trap her and recover her. When another member rang the BJVH to seek clarification as to what had happened, she was at first stonewalled, then when she asked to speak to the vet in charge, the vet refused to speak to her. If these people are indicative of the level of professionalism and morality of the BJVH then I personally would be fearful to take an animal there. The day after the vet STILL can't call us to explain what happened

History

Established in 1934.

The Bondi Junction Veterinary Hospital was built in 1934 as the practice and residence of Major Norman Larkin a 1926 graduate of the University of Sydney.
In the 1930s small animal medicine or surgery was a rarity. Horses were still used for transport and there were still dairies in the Eastern Suburbs.
The small animal side of the Bondi Junction Veterinary Hospital grew under the direction of Major Larkin.
In the mid 1960s Robert Steel, purchased the practice in 1968 and from then on it was a primarily small animal veterinary hospital.
There has also been a succession of vets and veterinary nurses through the practice. Many have gone on to travel, further their studies and set up businesses.
Today the practice is owned and run by Dr. Tony Mosman and Dr. Julia Crawford.
