Avian Vets in Singapore [2025]

For parrot owners in Singapore, finding a vet experienced in avian care can be challenging. Not all veterinary clinics have professionals who are trained to handle and treat birds, so having a reliable list is important. This guide provides a comprehensive directory of avian vets, their services, and their availability, ensuring you have access to the right care when your feathered friend needs it.

If you know of any other vet clinics experienced in handling avian cases in Singapore that are not listed here, please drop us a note via our contact form to let us know!

Disclaimer: This list is compiled to the best of our knowledge, but may not have complete information as service and vet availabilities vary. We generally aim to update this on an annual basis (usually by March or April each year), and some information may have changed in between updates. Do call the vet clinics directly to check for the most updated and accurate information prior to visiting the clinic.

FAQs for Parrot Owners

Which is the best vet? Does PSS have any recommendations?

The best vet depends on your location, budget, and your bird’s specific needs. While all vets listed here are experienced in avian care, some may specialise in certain treatments such as surgery or orthopaedic procedures, while others may be more adept at general consults.

Which is the cheapest vet?

Pricing varies widely depending on the clinic and services required. Consultation fees can differ, and additional tests or treatments can increase costs. It is always best to call ahead for a price estimate.

Why does PSS not publish relative pricing information anymore?

Our vet list previously provided estimated price categories of vet consultation costs, but we have discontinued this due to fluctuations in veterinary fees, changes in clinic policies, and the complexity of comparing services fairly. We encourage owners to contact clinics directly for up-to-date pricing.

Why is your vet list showing clinic operational days instead of focusing on the availability of avian vets?

As the schedules of the avian vets may be subject to change without notice, and some vets do not have fixed working days, we would prefer to indicate clinic operational days instead. We encourage you to call the clinic if you would like to enquire on the availability of an avian vet.

How do I transport my sick parrot to a vet safely?

Use a secure travel cage or carrier with good ventilation. Cover the carrier partially to reduce stress and keep your bird warm if needed. 

In Singapore, pets are not permitted on board public transport, so it would be necessary to call for private hire cars and taxis, or a pet transport service provider to bring your parrot to a vet clinic. Do ensure to check with the driver beforehand if they would allow parrots to be transported in their vehicle.

Note: Grab is unable to accept birds on the GrabPet service.

You should never allow a parrot to be transported unaccompanied, to avoid the risk of theft or mishandling. If you are not able to transport your parrot by yourself, engage a trusted friend or family member to help you do this.

What information should I prepare beforehand prior to my vet consultation?

To ensure a productive vet visit, it’s helpful to prepare the following:

  • Medical history – Any previous illnesses, treatments, or medications your parrot has received.
  • Weight history – If you track your bird’s weight at home (which is recommended), bring a record of past measurements.
  • Diet information – A list of what your parrot eats daily, including brands of pellets or seed mixes.
  • Symptoms log – Any unusual behaviours, changes in droppings, or physical symptoms you’ve noticed.
  • Recent photos or videos – If your bird exhibits abnormal behaviour at home, a video can be useful for diagnosis.
  • Poop sample – depending on the medical condition, some vets may require a fresh sample of the bird’s poop for observation or testing. This can be obtained just before visiting the vet, or a sample can be taken from the bird’s carrier as it is likely to have pooped on its way to the vet clinic.
What should I take note of after arriving at the vet clinic?

Most vet clinics listed here handle not only parrots, but also other pets such as dogs and cats. Close contact with these animals can lead to stress in your parrot. Wait in a quiet corner at the clinic if possible, and avoid any contact between your parrot and other pets. 

Also, avoid removing your parrot from its carrier unless otherwise instructed by the vet or their staff members.

What should I do in case of an avian emergency?

Remain calm and contact an avian vet immediately. If your bird is bleeding, apply gentle pressure with a sterile cloth. If there is breathing distress, keep your parrot warm and quiet while transporting them to the vet as soon as possible.

How often should I take my parrot for a vet check-up?

Annual wellness check-ups can be useful to monitor health, prevent diseases, and catch early signs of illness. Older or medically complex birds may require more frequent visits.

Do all vets listed here handle small parrots and large parrots alike?

Most avian vets can treat all sizes of parrots, but some individuals may be more familiar with handling small birds (budgies, lovebirds, cockatiels), while others have more experience with larger parrots (macaws, cockatoos, African greys). It’s best to check with the clinic beforehand.

For certain procedures such as microchipping, some vets may have weight requirements of the parrot due to availability of equipment on hand.

What is Fear-Free certification? If I go to a vet without this certification, are they going to handle my parrot roughly?

Fear-Free certification is a specialised training programme that teaches veterinary professionals how to minimise stress, anxiety, and fear in animals during handling and treatment. It focuses on gentle handling techniques, behaviour-based restraint, and positive reinforcement to keep animals as comfortable as possible.

A vet without this certification is not necessarily going to handle your parrot roughly. Many experienced avian vets have excellent handling skills even if they are not officially Fear-Free certified. If you are concerned about handling methods, you can always ask the clinic about their approach to bird restraint and stress reduction.

I have a negative experience with a vet and I would like to raise awareness. Can PSS do something about it?

The PSS Avian Vet List has been compiled objectively, without reference to individual reviews or personal experiences. Veterinarians undergo years of extensive training and rigorous certification to practice, equipping them with the expertise to make informed medical decisions. Their approach to handling animals or prescribing treatments may sometimes differ from personal expectations, as these decisions are based on professional knowledge and clinical judgment.

If you have concerns about a particular veterinary experience, we encourage you to discuss them directly with the clinic to gain clarity on the rationale behind their recommendations. For serious matters, you may consider reporting them to the Animal & Veterinary Service (AVS). Additionally, if you would like to share feedback, you are welcome to reach out to us via our contact form. However, as we are unable to independently verify individual cases, we cannot guarantee to take specific action regarding complaints about veterinary services.

If a clinic consistently receives significant complaints regarding avian care, we may reassess their inclusion in future updates.
