Armstrong Mobile Vets


Armstrong Mobile Vets is a unique veterinary service in the Berkeley Vale area, offering individual personal care for your pet, in your own home.

The veterinary surgeon offering this service is Ernest Armstrong BVSc (Hons) MRCVS.

Ernest has worked as a vet since qualifying from Liverpool University in 1989. He has worked in a wholly pet environment for the past 10 years and has a wealth of experience and expertise in this field.

We prefer to use a vet who will visit an unwell pet at Hydegate and we have found this much less stressful for the animals in our care. However, the option is available, on arrival, to stipulate your own vet, if you prefer.

Ernest is so impressed by what he has seen of Hydegate Pet Resort that he recommends us to all his customers and he boards his own animals with us.
