ABOUT
OUR CLINIC

Forbes Veterinary Clinic has been caring for animals in Forbes and surrounding communities for decades, building lasting relationships with both pets and their people.

From pocket pets to farm animals, every animal in our care is treated with kindness, respect, and compassion.

Dr Krista Jenkins took ownership of the clinic in 1993, and in 1998 Dr Patty Paul joined the team, forming a trusted partnership that continues today.

 

Together with a dedicated team of six veterinarians, five veterinary nurses, and three support staff, we are committed to delivering reliable,
high-quality veterinary services.

We offer a comprehensive range of services, from routine health care to emergency treatment, supporting both companion animals and livestock.

Condobolin Clinic

We are committed to supporting the Condobolin community, with our clinic operating one day a week (Tuesday or Wednesday) from 9:00am to 4:00pm.

To book an appointment, please contact our Forbes Clinic—we are happy to help and look forward to caring for your animals.
