Independent Orthopaedic Surgery for Redcliffe Pets

Evidence-based veterinary surgery that is truly worth the drive from the peninsula.

Walking along the beautiful Redcliffe Peninsula shoreline keeps local dogs fit and happy, but when sudden joint trauma or complex orthopaedic conditions arise, finding the right surgeon is crucial. BoneVet serves as an independent surgical destination for bayside families seeking a second opinion away from major corporate hubs.

Located in the inner-west, our state-of-the-art facility delivers the elite technological capabilities of a massive specialist centre, but wrapped in the highly personalised, unhurried care of an owner-operated surgical team.
