Vets on Crown is just a street away from Darlinghurst
If you've taken your pet to three different locums in the past six months, or you've had to re-tell their full medical history every time you walk in — that's not normal, even if it's common. Vets on Crown is 1km south down Crown Street, about 12 minutes on foot from Taylor Square. Dr Nima founded the clinic at 537 Crown St in 2017 and still sees patients every day the clinic is open. Most of our Darlinghurst clients see the same vet from their pet's first puppy visit through to their last.

Our reviews
Vets on Crown is my one-stop-shop for vet care, grooming, doggy day care, and puppy pre-school. The staff are skilled, attentive, and caring and take excellent care of my dog, Nina.
Excellent and affordable grooming services. Tomo is amazing and Sasha Bella loves her. Always a great experience. Thank you, Ray.
The team at Vets on Crown are amazing. Not only are they really professional and courteous but you can tell that they honestly care about the pets they treat. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
Friendly and professional staff. Highly recommended.
The vets are great there. Always get an appointment and they love their animals.
The best service, always very thorough and wonderful team of vets and staff. Thanks Omid and Nima for looking after us. We can’t thank you enough for looking after River.
Our shih-tzu, Milo stayed here and they took great care of him. Sent us photos, took him on plenty of walks and he was happy, healthy and CLEAN when we picked him up as they gave him a bath for free as well!
Took my puppy after he had been having gastro issues on and off. Previous vet treated him with antibiotics but did not run a secondary test afterwards to see if it had cleared as they thought it wouldn’t be necessary. Well, he got sick again and that’s when I took him to Vets on Crown who did fecal test which came back with not only the same bug he had before but another 2! After 17 days on antibiotics followed by repeat tests it is now cleared
Really good team and surprisingly cheap compare to other veterinary clinics I have visited in the past. They took good care of my pets and gave me many treatments options that other clinics didn’t. Would recommend.
Tomoko’s grooming at Vets on Crown is top rate. My dog is quite anxious but he always has a good time when he’s there and always comes out looking so clean and handsome. The whole process is seamless, with very kind and caring staff. Highly recommend.
Dear Team, We just wanted to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude for all the support you’ve given us during this challenging time with our little Buddy. It’s tough with all the health troubles, but knowing that we have such a caring team behind us is making a world of difference. A special shout-out to Bree for being particularly helpful and understanding, we can’t thank you enough. Carlo and Terry
Lisa, Nima and all the staff at Vets On Crown are simply superb, have never met more caring vets and the facilities are exceptional!

Frequently asked questions
About 1km south down Crown Street — 12 minutes on foot from Taylor Square, or 4 minutes by car.
Yes. Flag it when you book so reception can allocate a longer slot and a quiet consult room. The cat-only zone has calming pheromones, and we work slowly enough that the pet isn't being pinned down to get through the appointment. If handling is making things worse, we stop and talk through options rather than push through.
Yes, during business hours (Mon–Fri 7:30am–8pm, Sat/Sun 10am–4pm). Call (02) 9133 1300 first if you can, so we can triage before you arrive.
If you ask for a specific vet at booking, yes. Dr Nima has been consulting here since he founded the clinic in 2017, and most of our vets have been on the team for years. Even if your regular vet isn't in that day, the whole team works out of one physical clinic and shares notes on every patient — so whoever you see will know your pet's history.
Yes. Geriatric medicine is a substantial part of day-to-day work here. We handle ongoing monitoring, pain management, and quality-of-life conversations. If home euthanasia is the right option, we can refer to a colleague who provides this in the Darlinghurst area.
Vets on Crown is not a 24/7 hospital. From Darlinghurst, the closest overnight options are SASH Alexandria (~10 minutes by car) and the Sydney University Veterinary Teaching Hospital in Camperdown (~12 minutes by car). Save both numbers before you need them.
