About The Animal Doctors (Tiong Bahru)

A small animal clinic on Boon Tiong Road that has been open since February 2008 and runs its own laboratory on site. The Animal Doctors' website describes medical, surgical and dental care for pets, with in-house blood testing, X-ray, dental X-ray and ultrasound. Its surgical suite has continuous anaesthetic monitoring and handles soft tissue surgery and occasional orthopaedic work. The website also says the clinic has a 24-hour nursing service, uses acupuncture and laser therapy for chronic pain, and offers radioactive iodine treatment for cats with an overactive thyroid. It also says it is the only practice in Singapore offering that treatment.

Customers mention last-minute appointments, quick replies over WhatsApp, and vets who explain things patiently to children. One owner whose hamster needed urgent care was seen at short notice on a Sunday morning. Another, relocating with a cat, got clear advice on the vaccinations, travel requirements and certificates needed. Rabbit care is also mentioned.

Within a kilometre there is one other vet listed, Town Vets.

The clinic is by appointment. Walk-ins half an hour before closing time pay a surcharge, according to the website. The clinic's number here is 6253 3023.

The clinic is at 11A Boon Tiong Road, #02-07/08, in Tiong Bahru.
