Parking @ Katong
Gantry underground parking is available just across the road at Katong Point Little Farms (exit via ramp - be careful of oncoming traffic!), and i12 Shopping Mall (exit via service lift). We recommend planning to park at Katong Point as public parking spaces are limited along this part of Joo Chiat Road.
Limited public parking spaces are available directly outside our clinic (on Joo Chiat Road), as well as across the road. Parallel parking spaces are also available on Onan Road. There is a large public carpark located further up Joo Chiat Road as well (Joo Chiat Road Carpark).
Driving to Katong
Driving in from East Coast Road will make it easier to drop off with your pet; the clinic is located on the left side when you turn into Joo Chiat Road from East Coast Road.
If entering Joo Chiat Road from Dunman Road or Geylang Road, the clinic will be on your right; you will need to alight at Little Farms and cross the road to get to the clinic.
