Strategic Partnership in Australia

Published On: 29. January 2025

We are excited to welcome WestVETS from Australia to our Altano Group.

This partnership marks an exciting step as Altano expands its presence in Australia, bringing together a wealth of expertise and experience. Australia’s reputation for world-class clinical care and thoroughbred racing makes this partnership a valuable addition to our network. By promoting the exchange of knowledge across continents, our network will gain valuable insights while sharing our own expertise with Australia. The close geographical proximity between our Australian and New Zealand clinics fosters seamless communication and strengthens our collaborative efforts to provide the best possible care for the horses we treat.

Founded in 1999 as the Anstead Veterinary Practice, WestVETS has grown into a highly respected multi-veterinarian practice serving a wide variety of animals. In 2012, the practice expanded by opening a second small animal hospital and an Equine Reproduction Centre in Marburg, conveniently located along the Warrego Highway. To reflect its broadened scope, the practice rebranded as WestVETS Animal Hospital.

With 24-hour emergency services, WestVETS ensures that horse owners can rely on professional assistance whenever needed. The team of skilled veterinarians, specialists, and technicians provides comprehensive surgical and medical services, addressing all aspects of equine health. The services offered include:

  • Emergency Care
  • Equine Surgery
  • Medicine and Intensive Care
  • Sports Medicine
  • Ambulatory and Preventative Medicine
  • Equine Dentistry
  • Prepurchase Examinations

In addition to the wide range of services, WestVets places a heartfelt focus on reproduction, providing expert guidance and compassionate care to support every step of the journey. The Equine Reproduction Centre, situated on 65 acres in Marburg, specializes in artificial insemination, embryo transfer, high-risk pregnancy management for mares, and stallion services.

WestVETS is renowned for its compassionate and high-quality veterinary care, supporting family pets, horses, and farm animals. This partnership underscores a shared vision of advancing animal health and well-being through expertise and dedication.

We look forward to a successful collaboration with WestVETS as we continue to prioritize the well-being of animals.
