General Medical & Annual/Biannual Health Check & Vaccinations
We believe it is important for your pet’s health that they have regular checkups. This is normally done at the time of their annual vaccination booster. At this check the vet will examine your pet’s eyes, ears, nose and mouth, for any problems. The vet will also listen to the heart, and lungs. The abdomen will also be palpated checking for normal size and location of liver, spleen, kidneys, bladder, intestines and prostate. The lymph glands and skin are also checked for any problems. Finally the musculoskeletal system is checked for any problems with the joints, muscles or bones. This allows problems to be picked up and treated early. The annual check is a good opportunity for you to discuss any concerns you may have about your pet’s health. The veterinarian can also let you know measures to help prevent your pet developing health problems.
Surgery & Anaesthesia
We can perform a wide range of surgery for you pets anything from abscesses, soft tissue surgery, exploratory laporotomy, cystotomy, thoracic, reproductive and orthopaedic surgery. Anaesthesia is undertaken using the latest technology and always with pain control being an integral component before during and after a procedure.
