Behaviour
Healthy Pet Behaviour Services
At QVS we work in partnership with Healthy Pet Behaviour Services to bring a comprehensive, veterinary led behaviour referral service to our clients.
Healthy Pet Behavioural Medicine is a referral service run by Dr Bronwen Bollaert. Far more than training, behavioural concerns require evaluation of emotional, physical and mental health. Qualified and highly skilled veterinary professionals are best placed to deliver appropriate care. We work closely with clients and primary care vets to develop complete plans tailored to the individual patient and their unique challenges.
We address all manner of behavioural issues including aggression, fears and phobias, separation-related problems, repetitive behaviours, sleep disorders, developmental problems, ingestive and elimination problems, and many others. We offer Comprehensive Assessments and Treatment Plans, as well as Vet-to-Vet consults and behavioural modification for supporting general practice.
We enjoy working with veterinary teams in facilitating care to their patients, and improving outcomes for patients, clients and the veterinary team. This referral behaviour service is now available in our Sunshine Coast Hospital every Tuesday.
