We have a holistic approach towards the treatment of animals in our care.

We look at the whole animal for example its diet, husbandry, environment and not just its presenting symptoms.

The majority of problems are caused by incorrect  diet & husbandry.

At Currumbin Valley Veterinary Surgery we place a great emphasis on the education of our clients to make them more aware of the special needs and requirements of their pets.

Photos from Currumbin Valley Birds, Reptiles & Exotics Vet's post Many birds are presented to our practice with too short, “hacked off”wing trims which are a common cause of trauma in pet birds. They crash land on wood or tiled floors and split the skin over the breast bone. When new, delicate, blood feathers grow, they are unprotected by older, stiffer feathers and they get knocked, broken and bleed. It is common practice in avian Vet surgeries to do feather extensions or imping on bird’s wings that are cut too short and this corrects problems caused by inappropriate wing trims. The following photos show Dr. Peter doing imping on Scooby, a young Indian ringneck.
