Unlike many other clinics, we allow a minimum of 15 minutes for each appointment.

This ensures there will be time for us to discuss any problems thoroughly. All our consultations are by appointment. If you think you may need extra time, please let us know when you phone to book.

Primary care

A large proportion of our time is dedicated to routine and preventive healthcare. The services we offer include:

Vaccination programmes
Dietary advice
Flea, tick and worm control
Microchipping
Pet travel advice and documentation
Senior pet healthcare
Puppy and kitten checks

Dentistry

As well as offering dental advice and checks, we have a range of diets and dental care products to help keep your pet's teeth and gums healthy.

Dental disease can cause mouth pain, infections, bad breath and can also contribute to wider health issues. We carry out scaling and polishing under anaesthetic for dogs and cats and also have dental burrs to treat rabbits and rodents with tooth problems.

Medical investigation

For poorly pets, we are able to carry out a wide range of diagnostic procedures in-house, helping us to get a diagnosis quickly. We have our own laboratory on site, for carrying out blood screens, microscopy and urine analysis.

We have digital x-ray and ultrasonography facilities, ECG monitor and equipment for measuring blood pressure. For the tests we are unable to run in-house we work with a number of external laboratories, with samples usually collected from the clinic same day by courier. We also have good relationships with regional veterinary hospitals and medical specialists who can provide advice and assistance with more complicated problems.

Surgical procedures

Our surgical caseload is wide ranging, including routine spays and castrations, tumour removals, cleaning and stitching wounds, Caesarian sections and gastrointestinal surgery.

We also undertake a number of orthopaedic procedures - managing fractures, ligament tears and joint problems. Where we are unable to offer appropriate surgical intervention we are able to arrange for surgery to be carried out at one of the many referral centres in the South-East.

Thank you so much for everything these last two weeks! Every single one of you has been so kind, welcoming and helpful the entire time...

We just wanted to thank you all so much for the kindness and excellent care you gave to our very special cat Tommy who came to you...in a very poorly state. He is now nearly back to his old self, we cannot thank you all enough for the exceptional care and treatment you gave him and the regular contact you made with me...

I've been using this practice for 27 years now and you've always been brilliant. Thank you so much to everyone and today especially Jane for her care with Kasper.

Thank you to you Bradley for all your skill with Badger, and to all your staff for their gifts of lots of loving care and understanding during his op and before and after. You made him feel it was his second home!

Thank you for all your care and support over the last few weeks with our fiesty little beastie!
