Hi, I’m Dr Melyssa Cotton
I provide low-stress, in-home veterinary care, making it easier and more comfortable for both you and your pet to stay on top of their health.
With nearly 15 years of experience caring for Bayside pets as a general practice veterinarian, I’m confident treating a wide range of common conditions in cats and dogs. I’ve seen firsthand the difference a home visit can make—especially for pets who feel anxious at the clinic, or for owners who find the experience stressful. Being in a familiar environment helps pets feel more relaxed, and allows for a calmer, more positive experience for everyone involved.
What matters most to me is building genuine, long-term relationships with the families I work with and tailoring care to each individual pet.
Whether your pet needs a "once over" once a year or management of a chronic or more complex condition, you can count on calm and personalised care.
