How we picked vets near Bankstown

Ordering leaned on how well customers score each clinic, adjusted for how many have scored it, then on the breadth of services, the animals treated, and whether x-ray and lab work happen on site. The candidates were clinics in or near the suburb, plus mobile vets who name it. The clinics' own online material was consulted before any of them was placed. Night-time hours count only where the clinic publishes them.
