Lort Smith is an iconic Melbourne institution providing exceptional veterinary services for all pet carers. We aim to provide world-class animal healthcare and wellbeing services through high-quality vet care and state-of-the-art facilities. But we do more than that. We champion the human-animal bond and have a unique legacy of compassion for pets and people in our community.
Our future is in your hands
As expectations increase in relation
to the quality of veterinary care, we
are boldly undertaking two major
projects that will change the
landscape of animal healthcare
and wellbeing in Melbourne.
Available for adoption
The Lort Smith Adoption Centre rehomes approximately 850 surrendered animals each year. If you are considering adopting a pet, the first step is to carefully read the ‘before you adopt’ section.
