We offer an excellent standard of care to ALL surgical patients regardless of how ‘routine’ the surgery might be. Our patients are comprehensively monitored during their surgery, right through to recovery and beyond as your pet’s health and recovery from anaesthetic is our top priority.

And just as important as our role, is yours in the after-care proceeding your pet’s routine procedure. Healthy happy healing comes from strict rest and monitored recovery. Our surgeons and surgical nurses will make sure that you are discharged with all of the information you require for achieving a problem free recovery for your pet post-surgery.
