Company

We are proud to be a Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons accredited Small Animal Practice. This means that we undergo regular inspections by the RCVS to ensure that we meet the highest standards of veterinary care when it comes to hygiene, 24-hour emergency cover, staff training, certain types of equipment and cost estimation procedures.

We are also a veterinary nurse training practice, committed to investing in and providing the best staff.

 

We are one of only a few practices in the UK to offer keyhole surgery. In order to reduce the number of open surgical procedures we need to carry out on our patients, we are equipped with a wide range of rigid endoscopes, allowing us to operate in the smallest of spaces (such as joints were we often use a scope as small as 1.9mm), to larger sites (such as the abdominal cavity or chest where we use 5mm scopes).
