We understand some dogs hate coming inside the vets. If your dog is happier waiting outside or in the car then we are happy for them to do so, just let us know you have arrived.�

For reactive dogs, we offer a dedicated waiting area to keep them calm and comfortable.�

We know that you know your pet the best, so if there is something specific we can do to help keep the experience as stress free as possible then please just let us know.

If your dog gets wound up in the waiting area, then we will always try and put you in a free consulting room to help keep the stress levels lower.

We offer home visits but recommend that you book at least 24hours in advance.

In an emergency we will always try to accommodate your request, but it is often better for your pet if you bring them to us, as we simply cannot bring everything we may need to them and treatment is a lot easier within the hospital.

Our Rainbow Room provides a peaceful and private space for saying goodbye to your beloved pet.

This peaceful environment is designed to offer comfort and support during this difficult time.

Our compassionate team is here to help you and your pet with the utmost respect and care, ensuring a gentle and dignified farewell.

Dogs and cats

Dental disease is common in our pets, with over 70% being affected by just 2 years of age. That’s why we have all the equipment to be able to deal with it. Whether your pet needs a descale and polish to prevent any progression of periodontal disease or they need to have some teeth removed we have the skills to do so.  All our Dental packages include full mouth dental radiographs so that we can accurately assess and treat as required.

Advanced dentistry

Carly has a special interest in dentistry, meaning that we can carry out some advanced procedures that elsewhere would require referral. Advanced procedures that we can carry out include:

• Treatment of lingually displaced canines
• Maxillofacial surgery
• Treatment of jaw fractures
• Vital pulp therapy
• Total mouth extractions for advanced periodontal disease
• Dental composite bonding

Rabbits and other small furries

As their teeth constantly erupt it is vital they grind them down to stop them developing painful overgrown teeth. Sometimes for various reasons this doesn’t happen. We have a full dental kit to allow proper examination of all cheek teeth and incisors and therefore treatment of any overgrowths.

Vet Jenny has completed her certificate of advanced veterinary practice with an interest in surgery, so she has made sure that our theatre is top notch. We even have two theatres to ensure that should an emergency arrive we can always get on with the job in hand.

We have separate wards for cats and dogs. If we have other animals admitted they can also be cared for separately.

Our cat condos meet the ISFM gold cat friendly clinic standard and have been proven to help reduce stress and maintain body temperatures.

We strive to keep stress in hospitalised patients to a minimum, that’s why in both the cat and dog wards they will not face one another. We also have pheromone diffusers plugged in and keep external noise to a minimum.

If your pet is suspected of having something infectious that could be passed to other pets then we will keep them in the isolation ward where they will be barrier nursed for their own protection as well as the protection of other pets in the hospital.
