Equipped with modern anaesthetic monitoring systems and in-house diagnostics, we handle trauma, poisoning, and acute illnesses. Clients are advised to call ahead for urgent cases to prepare staff and equipment.

We provide core and lifestyle-based vaccination programs for puppies, kittens, and adult pets. Services include rabies, distemper, and feline leukemia vaccines, alongside preventative treatments for fleas, ticks, and heartworm. Personalised schedules ensure optimal protection.

Our surgical suite handles routine and complex procedures, including desexing, orthopaedics, and soft-tissue surgeries. Visiting specialists support advanced cases like cruciate repairs. Pre-anaesthetic blood tests and modern monitoring ensure patient safety during operations.
