Student Veterinary Clinic

South Metropolitan TAFE’s Veterinary Student Clinic at the Bentley campus is a teaching clinic run as part of the Certificate IV in Veterinary Nursing training, and it welcomes appointments from students, staff and the general public. The clinic is staffed by veterinary nursing students working alongside qualified veterinarians and registered veterinary nurses who also hold training and assessment qualifications, so pets receive supervised clinical care while students gain practical experience. Services offered include general consultations and health assessments, vaccinations, routine dental procedures for cats and dogs, and sterilisation surgeries for cats and dogs (with preoperative consultation and health assessment requirements for older animals). The clinic operates during teaching periods and term dates and functions like a routine general practice, providing affordable, practical care while supporting the learning of future veterinary nurses. If you’re looking for standard veterinary care delivered in a teaching environment—by supervised students and experienced clinicians—this clinic provides a clear option for both routine procedures and preventative care.
