Wing Clipping*​
​
*Wing clipping is only performed in specific circumstances and following individual assessment. As an avian-focused clinic, we do not routinely recommend wing clipping and encourage owners to allow their birds to maintain normal flight whenever possible. Wing clipping should only be considered when there is a clear welfare or safety reason to do so.

-
Home visits provide a convenient and low-stress option for many birds and their owners. Seeing your bird in their familiar home environment allows us to assess not only their health, but also their housing, diet, husbandry and overall setup.
-
Home visits can be particularly beneficial for birds that become stressed when travelling, households with multiple birds requiring care, or when transporting your bird to a clinic is difficult.
-
A range of veterinary services can also be performed in the comfort of your home, including but not limited to health checks, blood testing, beak trims and cytology.
-
For end-of-life care, we also provide the option of euthanasia in a familiar, quiet and private environment, surrounded by the people and comforts your bird knows.
Â
*A deposit of $100 is required to secure your home visit appointment. Your deposit will be put towards the total cost of your consultation, so it will be deducted from your final account.
* Home visits are offered on a case-by-case basis, depending on your bird’s individual needs. Some patients may need to be seen in-clinic, particularly when procedures requiring anaesthesia, specialised equipment or hospital facilities are necessary.
* A travel surcharge may apply depending on your location
Â
Telehealth
30-minute Telehealth Consultation — $100
Telehealth consultations are designed to complement, rather than replace, in-person veterinary care. As your bird cannot be physically examined during a telehealth consultation, we are unable to provide a confirmed diagnosis or prescribe medications based solely on a telehealth consultation.
Where appropriate, we may recommend an in-person consultation following a telehealth appointment to allow your bird to receive a complete physical examination and any necessary diagnostic testing.
Â
Flexible Payment Options
We understand that unexpected veterinary costs can be stressful.
Â
That’s why we’ve partnered with Zip Pay and VetPay to offer flexible payment options to help make accessing veterinary care easier.
