About Us:
Our long-established practice includes our main hospital in Maffra as well as the Sale Vet Centre and purpose-built Gippsland Equine Hospital.

The Sale clinic has recently relocated to new and bigger premises and can offer a wide range of services and the Gippsland Equine Hospital has purpose-built surgery facilities for both emergency and elective surgery.
We have a great client base of progressive dairy and beef farmers and an ever-expanding population of dedicated equine and small animal owners that trust us with the care of their animals.
We provide a high standard of service and can diagnose and treat most things in-house due to the quality equipment and extensive experience amongst our vets. We refer very little.
