Independent Orthopaedic Surgery for Sunshine Coast Pets
Evidence-based veterinary surgery that is truly worth the drive down the M1.
Whether your dog injured their knee running on the beach or hiking the hinterland trails, complex orthopaedic and spinal surgeries demand the right expertise at the right price point. BoneVet serves as an independent surgical destination for Sunshine Coast families seeking a second opinion.
Our state-of-the-art facility delivers the elite technological capabilities of a corporate specialist centre, but wrapped in the highly personalised, unhurried care of an owner-operated surgical team.
Advanced Care, Direct to You:
Evidence-Based Surgery
We let the science guide our scalpel. We specialise in procedures backed by decades of peer-reviewed literature, including gold-standard TPLO and complex fracture repair.
Transparent Surgical Estimates
We provide direct, independent surgical options for coastal owners who have received prohibitive, multi-tiered estimates from massive referral networks.
Dedicated Post-Op Support
We ensure your peace of mind doesn’t end when you drive home. Our team remains on-call 24/7 for our registered surgical patients during their critical recovery phases.
