OUR
SERVICES
Our vets and nurses have a wide range of knowledge
and skills, which along with our extensive equipment and facilities
means we are able to offer you and your pet complete veterinary
care. We constantly reinvest in staff training and new equipment
to ensure the practice is up to date. Whether you just need us for
routine vaccination or for emergency care (and everything in between)
we strive to offer a friendly but professional service.

Consultations
All our veterinary consultation appointments are 15 minutes
long, this ensures that we always have the time to thoroughly
examine your pet. We have consulting periods throughout the
day to make your visit to us as convenient as possible. We
try where possible to ensure that you see the vet of your
choice, to give good continuity of care.
Surgical procedures
If your pet requires a surgical procedure or diagnostic tests
we can be as adaptable as possible, arranging the day and
vet to suit you. We are happy to give estimates for any procedure
your pet may need.

Puppy Parties
These parties are held on a week night evening
for four consecutive weeks. The aim of the evenings are to
help socialise your puppy with other puppies and people. In
addition you learn about basic training, common behavioural
problems (and how to avoid them), and general dog care. All
the puppies that have been to puppy parties seem to remember
the practice as a fun place, and even years later bound through
the door, rather than having to be dragged over the threshold!
Kitten evenings
These evenings are held once a month, and we will give advice
on parasites, vaccination, microchipping, dental care, nutrition,
first aid and behavioural problems.
