Ohana Vetcare is a Singapore veterinary clinic located at Loyang Point in Pasir Ris, built around the philosophy that 'family means forever.' The clinic strives for a family environment both among its own team and with clients, with the vets themselves being pet owners who understand the bond between people and their 'fur-kids'.
The practice is run by a team including Dr. Francis Tay (BSc BVMS Hons, Murdoch, graduated 2009), Dr. Ong WeiJun (BSc UC Davis, BVM&S Edinburgh, MRCVS, with a CVE in Oncology completed in 2015), and Dr. Sara Koh (DVM, Murdoch, graduated with distinction, with a particular interest in internal medicine and exotic pet care). All three are pet parents themselves, caring for a mix of cats and dogs at home.
Services span general consultations (wellness checks, illness consultation, vaccinations, microchipping, pre-export check-ups and emergencies), surgery (sterilisation, soft tissue surgery, orthopedics, and dental work), housecall visits for clients who need care delivered at home, and in-house diagnostics covering laboratory testing (biochemistry, hematology, Idexx SNAP tests, urine and faecal analysis) and imaging (radiography and ultrasonography). Housecall visiting also extends to compassionate services like home euthanasia.
Ohana Vetcare is open daily, Monday through Sunday, across three separate sessions: 10:00am-12:00pm, 2:00pm-6:00pm, and 7:00pm-9:00pm, with last registration for an appointment 30 minutes before each closing time.
At Ohana Vetcare, the name says it all: 'family means forever.' Based at Loyang Point in Pasir Ris, the clinic strives to build a family-like environment both among its own team and with the clients who bring their pets through the door, drawing on the fact that its vets are pet owners themselves.
Ohana Vetcare's team includes Dr. Francis Tay, who graduated from Murdoch University in 2009 with a BSc BVMS (Hons) and has worked in small animal practices across Singapore ever since. He shares his life with three biological children and two fur-kids, Jack Tay Ah Kow and Muffin Tay Meow Meow. Dr. Ong WeiJun studied at UC Davis before completing his BVM&S at the University of Edinburgh, later finishing a CVE in Oncology in 2015 and developing a particular interest in veterinary oncology. At home, he's joined by his wife and three furkids: Keiko, Bruno and Mr. Catty. Dr. Sara Koh graduated with distinction from Murdoch University with a combined BSc and DVM, and has built a professional interest in internal medicine and exotic pet care. She's a proud parent to three cats — Pip, Bean and Squid — and a maltipoo named Cookie, who she credits as her motivation for entering the veterinary field.
Ohana Vetcare's consultation services cover general wellness checks, consultations for acute and chronic illness, vaccinations, microchipping, pre-export check-ups, and emergencies.

For clients who need care delivered at home, Ohana Vetcare offers a full housecall visiting service, covering health check-ups, vaccinations, blood tests, parasite treatment, ear and skin treatment, fluid therapy, microchipping, nail clipping, and post-surgery wound care.
