caring for local pets since 2006

The staff at Blakehurst vet are incredibly welcoming, friendly and professional.They 100% live up to the amazing google reviews online and is exactly why we chose to bring our fur baby Billy to Blakehurst - 10/12/20

Excellent service and honest. Recommend it to everyone. - 30/11/20 

I have always found Hamish and the vet support team super friendly, attentive and caring. Special thanks to Catherine and the team today who had to pump my Pugs stomach after he got into a box of Favourties. Not an ideal job but no complaints. I've found the service reasonably priced too compared to other vets and the long opening hours help with booking appointments. - 02/11/20 

The staff are so incredibly friendly, happy to help and reciprocate the same love that we have for our own pets. Blakehurst Vet not only has impeccable customer service, but it is also an inviting and clean veterinary clinic. The vets are so thorough and go into depth with all their service and explanations, the passion for their profession truly shows. - 20/10/20

Blakehurst vet is our new vet for our puppy. Very informative and so far the quality of care is excellent. Thanks to all the staff for taking the time to teach us about a puppy’s world. - 23/09/20 

Wouldn't take my pets anywhere else. My Aussies always hated the vets but now they find it a pleasant experience. Hamish and the staff are wonderful. They are not over priced and they will take the time to look after each pet and their individual needs. My boys enjoy going to the vet! They are great with our blind pup. I appreciate the follow up phone calls to see if everything is ok. Thank you to all the staff. - 23/09/20

Blakehurst Vets are simply great. I found them professional, able to communicate and importantly, to listen. Most of all I felt welcome and the staff were really friendly. Highly recommended. The quality of the two staff I dealt with were top shelf. - 30/07/20 

I visited this vet for the first time for my 2 year old cats skin issues. The Nurse and the Vet were extremely warm and friendly. The nurse took the initiative to retrieve my cats medical history from her previous vet which I believe is important and I haven’t had other clinics do this before. The vet was very thorough and informative and offered several avenues of help. He was very warm and friendly with my little one which I appreciate. He took his time with explaining everything in detail and answered all of my questions. The clinic was clean and inviting, I loved the spa music in the waiting room and appreciated the seperate cat and dog waiting area. I will definitely be bringing my cat back here and make this her regular vet. - 30/07/20 

A very caring and professional team. Our dog is very comfortable there. The care and level of professionalism is second to none. - 30/07/20 

Best bet in the area - 20/07/20 

Hamish is always so patient and thorough - he is so great with my dog she actually likes coming to the vet! The level of service is fantastic, right from the moment you step in the door.

Very professional and caring practice highly recommended to look after your fur and feathered children. A very knowledgeable, informative and caring team.

We’ve been taking our cats to Hamish for many years and we love the care and attention we and our kitties receive at Blakehurst Vet.We recently also had one of our cats stay at the cat hotel. Whilst the cat didn’t appreciate being away from us for a week, it was very clear how much all the staff cared for our cat during his stay and were very attentive to his needs. - 23/01/20 

Amish is such a good vet and even the other nurses are. We just got our pup in for Puppy school and couldn't be happier with the service. Also they recently moved to a new building and the place looks amazing. - 23/12/19 

My cat and dog comes back happy after boarding. They hate some of the other larger places which have too large of a pet to people ratio. At the end of the day, you can’t ask for much more than that. - 23/12/19 

Gary and I have known Hamish for 25 years through this time he has been our Amazing Vet and a wonderful caring and talented person. Through looking after our first Furbabie X Joshua X ( Cat ) And operating on him successfully so we could have him for a extra couple of years to X Love X 💖 And over the years looking after X Chloe 🐹 X Sophie 🐺 X Gary and I highly recommend Hamish and his caring and loving team at Blakehurst Vets 🐹🐺🐦 Susie X Garry X 😙 - 23/12/19 

Happy to recommend. Seen both Hamish and Catherine and they are really good vets. My dog had a 4 week course of arthritis injections and I can’t believe the believe how it’s helped. She’s acting like a puppy again! - 23/11/19 

Hamish is a wonderful vet and he has very caring and compassionate staff, the clinics intended move down the road will be a huge bonus and even more user friendly. - 23/10/19 

How to begin this, how to say thank you to a team of people that have loved and cared for your animal as much as you did. 14 years ago we met Dr Hamish when we brought our scrawny rescue in and with his help we had a wonderful cat named Bruce. We have been seeing him ever since for regular check ups to emergencies and everything in between. Our trust in him never wavered and his advice was always welcome. This last year has been our hardest with Bruce becoming older and requiring a lot of extra attention. Hamish and his staff have gone above and beyond to help us, answering questions and accommodating her needs. When it was time to make the hard decisions he was kind and patient. He allowed her to have dignity in her final moments and as much as we have lost a friend, I would like to thank Hamish and his staff for everything they did for Bruce. - 23/07/19 

Hamish is such a great vet who has an exceptional team working for him. Professional, caring and knowledgeable. We attended Puppy School and found the classes fun and engaging and loved that it included one on one follow up sessions after the course finished. Finally trips to the vet are not longer stressful, both dogs cant wait to get through the door! We are so glad we have found Hamish and his team, we feel like part of the family. - 23/06/19 

All staff and Vets are very caring and friendly - 23/06/19 

Very professional and caring practice highly recommended to look after your fur and feathered children. - 23/06/19 

Could not be happier with Dr Hamish's work. The surgery went well and the stitches are a work of precision art. Well done. - 23/06/19 

The best vet in Sydney. Dr Hamish is so caring and compassionate. Our fur babies are so well looked after and the Hotel for Cats is something you would have to see to believe. It is beyond 5 star. If you need your fur babies cared for this is the place to take them. Also the girl on reception is the friendliest receptionist I've dealt with. 10/10 in all areas of service. Thanks so much Dr Hamish and your superstar team. My babies purr thank you too!!! - 23/06/19 

Great place. Staff are friendly. Chloe has great knowledge of how to train my puppy and the veterinarian vanessa is lovely and is so good with my puppy - 23/06/19 

The best vet have always gone to Blakehurst vet so thorough and caring. My dogs get excited to go and see Dr Hamish or Dr Catherine. Thank you for caring❤ - 23/06/19 

Hamish and his team are truly wonderful - caring and compassionate. Our family dog had been unwell for awhile and injured himself and we had to make the awful decision every pet owner dreads. Hamish was very sensitive to how we were feeling and endeavoured to make things easier. In addition, the team sent us a lovely memorial card sometime after....would recommend him and his team to anyone looking for a vet - 23/06/19 

My labrador Athena absolutely loves Blakehurt Vet Hospital - she actually pulls me down the street when she knows where we are going! All the staff are wonderful 🐶😊 - 23/06/19 

Hamish is a lovely vet who really seems to love animals. - 23/06/18 

Hamish is the best! He is always so friendly and caring. We would not see anyone else! Our cat can be bit grumpy sometimes but Hamishis very gentle. The hotel is super nice for cats!much bigger and better than the kennels. - 23/06/18 

Dr.Hamish is always so good with our cat and so gentle, we've been taking him here since he was a kitten and he's now 6! Beautiful clean premises and the nurses are always friendly. - 23/06/18 

I have entrusted the care of my pets to Dr. Hamish and the staff st Blakehurst Vet for the last 12 years. In that time we have known Hamish to always provide our pets, whether it be our guinea pigs or beloved dog Henry, with expert veterinary care and attention. They have always made time for appointments even at short notice and they have provided follow up care after treatment plans were put in place. I recommend Blakehurst Vet to anyone who loves their pets and wants the best possible care for them. Thankyou Dr. Hamish....... - 23/06/17 

Hamish is the best vet around. He really takes the time to look over your animals and cares about every patient that walks in the door. - 23/06/17 

I have been taking my dog Teddy to Hamish for about 4 years. The service is always outstanding and the nurses are so friendly and caring. Teddy loves going to the vet, as they always fuss over him and make him feel at home. What more could a dog owner want. Thanks Blakehurst Vet. - 23/06/17 

Wish we could put 7 stars - but only 5 are allowedCannot think of any other place to take our 2 furry family members - but here at Blakehurst Vets Sasha Tasic - 23/06/17 

HOPE, My Birman girl had bad breath, also her eyes watered all the time. After having her teeth cleaned and tear ducts flushed she is like a new girl. Thank you Hamish. - 23/06/17 

Always a pleasure to visit the surgery (maybe not for Bonnie) !!! but I feel confident we will be looked after by the friendly staff and especially Hamish. A very caring environmentThank you., - 23/06/17

I was at the end of my tether with my vet but I'm sooo glad that I found Hamish at Blakehurst. He is very caring and has such a natural way with my dog Johnnie. His years of experience shows. He was able to fix Johnnies ear infection when others have failed. I can always get into see him so Johnnie always has the same doctor which I just love. You will never find a better vet than this one. Do your pet a favour!! - 23/06/16 

Dr Hamish Bathgate is a wonderful vet. 4 years ago he saved my beautiful dog Niki when she had an Addisonian crisis. Addison’s disease is very difficult to diagnose and I am most grateful that Hamish had the expertise to solve her illness before it was too late.He is a caring, compassionate and experienced vet and I cannot recommend him highly enough. If you are looking for a top rate vet then Hamish is the one. - 23/06/16
