About James
James Haberfield, BVMS, is a prominent veterinarian specializing in exotic animal medicine and an alumnus of Murdoch University’s Veterinary School, where he earned his Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Veterinary Medicine and Surgery. He also holds a Postgraduate Certificate in Business Management and memberships as a Member of the Australian and New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists in Unusual Pets and Avian Health. Approximately ten years prior to 2022, fresh out of Murdoch Veterinary School, Dr. Haberfield identified a gap in services for exotic pets in Perth and founded The Unusual Pet Vets in Balcatta. The practice has grown into the largest network of exotic-only clinics in Australia, with locations in Perth, Melbourne, and Brisbane, providing specialized care for reptiles, birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets, and other unusual animals.
Dr. Haberfield has contributed significantly to the veterinary field through publications and leadership. He co-authored 'Exotic Animal Practice in Australasia' in Veterinary Clinics of North America: Exotic Animal Practice (2024). He contributed the chapter 'Veterinary Care of Venomous Reptiles' in the book Venomous Reptiles and Their Toxins. His involvement includes providing tissue samples for the study 'Divergent bornaviruses from Australian carpet pythons with neurological disease' (2018) and presenting on Nidovirus associated with respiratory disease in reptiles at the 2024 Unusual Pet & Avian conference proceedings. Currently serving as President of the Unusual Pets Chapter of the ANZCVS, he advances standards in exotic pet medicine. His clinics' work was featured in the 2022 TV series 'The Bizarre Pet Vets' on 9Gem. Additionally, he has engaged in fieldwork such as microchipping Western spiny-tailed skinks and filming with king cobras in India. Dr. Haberfield has supported Murdoch University as a donor listed in annual reports.
