Our History

The Walk In Clinic for Animals was founded in 2022 by two veterinarians, Dr Bronwyn Orr and Dr Ashlee Flesser. Both veterinarians previously worked in emergency hospitals and became passionate about providing patients with the best possible care, when they need it.

Noticing a gap in animal care between day-time general practice veterinary clinics and emergency referral clinics, our founders started the Walk In Clinic for Animals to bridge this gap in animal care – providing pet lovers peace of mind at times when your normal veterinary clinic may not be open or available.
