The Adelaide Animal Emergency and Referral Centre (AAERC) is packing up and moving to a new location after 35 years.
After years of dedicated service to its community, on October 28 the centre will move from its current Kurralta Park location to Norwood, to make way for the construction of a new highway.
It will open on November 1 as the Greencross Vet Centre and be co-located with the Adelaide Veterinary Services and Referral Centre (AVSARC), making it one of the only sites in South Australia offering a combined General Practice (GP), emergency and referral veterinary service.
Di Whatling, Business Manager at Greencross Vet Centre, said they are thrilled to be entering this new chapter.
“By co-locating our general practice, emergency and referral services at the same location, we’re making it easier for pet owners to get comprehensive veterinary care without the need to travel between clinics.”
The Norwood site will be expanded to accommodate both team members and equipment from the Kurralta Park location. This expansion ensures a more integrated model of care, offering pet owners easy access to routine check-ups, emergency treatment and dermatology services — all under one roof.
“We’re excited to continue providing the highest level of care for local pets in this new, state-of-the-art facility, and look forward to serving the community for many years to come.”
The new GP services will operate alongside the existing emergency care, ensuring clients continue to receive high-quality veterinary services.
