Practice Manager (Rosebud)

**A bit about us**

The Peninsula Vet Care story started over 40 years ago, with our first clinics in Mt Eliza and Dromana. Since then we have grown to 6 clinics, from our initial clinic in Mt Eliza all the way to Rye Beach. Through renovations, investment in new technologies and highly skilled staff, we are delighted to be able to offer the highest levels of healthcare to the animals we see.

In 2019, our East Mornington site became the first 24/7 Emergency and Referral Hospital on the Mornington Peninsula. When it comes to consistency, we value our process of linking patient histories, meaning we’ll have all of a patients information instantly on hand to provide urgent care for your pet when they need it most.
