Chris Richards & Associates 33 Piper Lane, East Bendigo, Victoria 3550

Welcome to Chris Richards & Associates! Located in East Bendigo on Piper Lane, our establishment is a point of interest for all things related to veterinary care. We pride ourselves on providing top-notch health services for your beloved pets.

One of our standout programs is Best Mates, a preventative and protective healthcare program designed to give pet owners peace of mind. With Best Mates, you can enjoy real savings on everyday vet care, and the best part is, it includes unlimited FREE consultations! We believe in taking care of your furry friends without breaking the bank.

In addition to our regular veterinary care, we also offer specialized services for specific industries. Our ProDairy service is a partnership with dairy farmers and their veterinarians, aimed at improving cow health, welfare, biosecurity, and farm profitability. We are proud to utilize our national network of clinics to deliver this service.

The ProSwine team at Chris Richards & Associates is passionate about the Australian pork industry. We are dedicated to providing our clients with the highest standard of veterinary service, diagnostics, and technology. Our goal is to contribute to the success and growth of the pork industry in Australia.

For those in the feedlot sector, we offer a wide range of veterinary health consultancy and ancillary services. We understand the importance of herd health in the feedlot industry, and our team is committed to ensuring that your herd is working at its optimum level.

At Chris Richards & Associates, we value collaboration and forward-thinking individuals. We offer structured development programs and access to industry leaders for those who are looking to build a dynamic career in the veterinary field. Whether you're starting out as a newly graduated veterinarian or aiming for leadership and managerial roles, we have career pathways to support your growth.

We also believe in giving back to the community. Recently, we donated hampers and a Fur Life Best Mates Membership to the Stanhope Football and Netball Club for their Goods and Services charity auction. We are proud to support local initiatives and help raise funds for the community.

Throughout the year, we host various events and meetings to connect with professionals in the field. Our Swine Services team recently hosted two Pub & Pork events in Bendigo and Kingaroy, featuring special guest US swine veterinarian Dr Tara Donovan. These events provide opportunities for knowledge sharing and networking within the industry.

Our CEO, Chris Richards, and Head of People & Culture, Renee Waters, also actively engage with the community. They recently met with Lisa Chesters MP at our Fur Life Vet Epsom clinic, discussing the importance of veterinary care and its impact on the community.

We have a team of dedicated professionals at Fraser Coast Veterinary Services who love working at our clinic. They share their experiences and the beautiful location, including the pristine beaches of Hervey Bay. We believe that a positive work environment translates into better care for your pets.

If you're in the Tannum Sands area, be sure to visit our companion animal clinic, Boyne Tannum Vet Surgery. Located approximately 25 kms from our Fur Life Vet Harbour City clinic in Gladstone Qld, we are here to provide exceptional care for your furry companions in this region as well.

Lastly, on October 15th, we celebrate International Day of Rural Women, recognizing the invaluable contributions of rural women to our workplaces, communities, farms, and families. We acknowledge and appreciate the hard work and dedication of rural women in all aspects of life.
