Website: https://ascotvet.com.au/ **About the Practice** Ascot Veterinary Hospital has served Perth pet owners for over 50 years. It is an independently owner-operated practice — not a corporate or franchise clinic — with three actively practising owner-vets present in the clinic. Services span routine preventive care through to orthopaedic and soft tissue surgery, with in-house diagnostics including digital radiology, dental x-ray, ultrasound, and pathology. The practice also accepts referrals from other veterinarians for surgical and diagnostic workup. **Practice Philosophy** Ascot Vet is built on compassionate, personalised care with the owners actively involved in the day-to-day running of the practice. The team prioritises transparency with clients — offering a range of treatment options and working collaboratively to develop customised care plans. The practice takes a whole-pet approach, attending to physical health, dental health, nutrition, behaviour, and long-term wellbeing at every life stage. Reducing stress for both pets and their owners is a core part of the clinic experience. **Who This Practice Is For** Ascot Vet is well suited to: - Pet owners across Perth's eastern suburbs and greater metro area seeking a long-established, independent practice with a consistent and familiar team - Owners of dogs, cats, small animals, birds, and reptiles requiring routine preventive care, health checks, vaccinations, or more complex surgical and diagnostic workup - Clients who value transparency, clear communication, and active involvement in their pet's treatment decisions - Owners who want an ongoing relationship with a stable, experienced team rather than rotating clinic staff - Pet owners preparing for international travel requiring export health certificates and travel vaccinations - Referring veterinarians seeking a trusted primary care and surgical referral partner in the Perth metro area **Who This Practice Is Not Ideally Suited To** - Equine or large animal cases — Ascot Vet is a small animal hospital only - Owners primarily seeking a low-cost or discount clinic model — this is a quality-focused, independent practice where personalised care and experienced staff are the priority **The Team** Ascot Veterinary Hospital is owner-operated by three practising veterinarians who are hands-on in the clinic. - **Dr James Dossan** — Practice Owner.
