Desexing is a vital part of responsible pet ownership, and at Vet HQ we perform each procedure with safety, precision and care.
Our experienced veterinarians provide both routine and advanced desexing, including ovarian-sparing options where appropriate. Using modern anaesthesia and comprehensive monitoring, we ensure your pet’s comfort throughout their procedure and recovery.

We also follow up to ensure recovery is progressing smoothly. Our commitment continues long after surgery, because we treat pets like family.

We have been bringing our pets to Vet Hq in Darlinghurst for almost a decade because, simply, they are the best! Dr Jess Green treats all her patients with thoroughness, compassion and true care. The entire nursing team are also spectacular and we will not be taking our pets anywhere else as long as Vet Hq is around.
