Mildura Veterinary Hospital (MVH) is a cornerstone of animal care in the Sunraysia community, proudly established in 1968. As the oldest veterinary hospital in Mildura, MVH has a rich history that began with its original location opposite the old Mildura Base Hospital. In 1977, the hospital moved to its current purpose-built facility at 370 Deakin Avenue, becoming the first accredited small animal hospital by the Australian Small Animal Veterinary Association. Over the years, MVH has undergone significant renovations to enhance its services and facilities, with plans for further expansion on the horizon.
At MVH, the commitment to animal welfare and community support is at the heart of its operations. The practice is led by experienced principals, Drs.
