Our services

Keeping vaccinations up to date is one of the most effective things you can do to protect your pet's health. We offer puppy and kitten primary courses, annual booster reminders, kennel cough vaccination, and full rabbit vaccination programmes.

• Kennel cough (Bordetella) intranasal vaccine
• Annual cat booster (cat flu, feline enteritis, FeLV)
• Rabbit combined vaccine (myxomatosis + RVHD1 & RVHD2)
• Full health check included with every vaccination appointment

Microchipping is a legal requirement for dogs in the UK and strongly recommended for cats and rabbits. We use MyPet microchips by Trovan — a leading ISO-standard chip trusted by vets and rescue organisations across Europe. Registration to the Petlog database is included.

• ISO 11784/11785 compliant 15-digit microchip

• Certificate provided at time of implantation
• Available for dogs, cats, rabbits and small mammals
• Can be performed during any consultation or combined with neutering

Neutering is one of the most responsible choices you can make for your pet's long-term health. We provide full pre-operative health checks, tailored anaesthetic protocols, and dedicated post-operative nursing care. We follow the latest RCVS and BSAVA guidance on timing for different breeds and sizes.

• Pre-operative health examination and blood profile (recommended)
• Modern, carefully monitored general anaesthetic
• Castration (male dogs, cats, rabbits)
• Spaying — traditional or laparoscopic (female dogs, cats, rabbits)
• IV fluid support as standard
• Pain management protocol and take-home analgesia
• Post-operative nurse check included

Dental disease affects the majority of pets over three years old and is a leading cause of chronic pain that often goes unnoticed. Our dental service ranges from at-home care advice and nurse dental checks to full anaesthetic scale and polish, extractions, and digital dental X-ray.

• Dental health assessment at every routine consultation
• Nurse dental clinics — brushing technique and diet advice
• Anaesthetic scale and polish with ultrasonic scaler
• Digital dental radiography
• Extractions where required
• Post-operative pain management and soft-food guidance

Our fully equipped operating theatre allows us to perform a broad range of surgical procedures without the need for stressful external referral in most cases. Dr Sarah Whitaker leads soft tissue surgery, and Dr Tom Bryant handles complex orthopaedic cases.

• Mass / lump removals and biopsies

• Gastrointestinal procedures
• Bladder and urinary tract surgery
• Orthopaedic procedures (fracture repair, cruciate surgery)
• Specialist referral arranged where required

Fast, high-quality in-house imaging means your pet can often be diagnosed and treated in a single visit. Our digital radiography system produces instant, high-resolution images, and our portable ultrasound allows real-time soft tissue assessment without sedation in many cases.

• Digital radiography (X-ray) — chest, abdomen, orthopaedic
• Ultrasound — abdominal, cardiac screening, guided sampling
• Same-day results in most cases
• Images can be shared digitally with referral specialists if required

Our in-house IDEXX Catalyst laboratory means we can run a full biochemistry and haematology profile within 30 minutes. This is invaluable for anaesthetic screening, emergency triage, and monitoring chronic conditions like kidney disease or diabetes.

• Urinalysis and sediment examination
• Fine-needle aspirate cytology
• Rapid parasite and allergy testing
• Thyroid and cortisol assays in-house

• Anal gland expression

• Nurse-accompanied visits available
• Particularly suited to palliative care, mobility assessments, and multi-pet households
