| Appointments
We run
an appointment system and give 15 minute consultations which
allow time for full examinations and full discussion if necessary.
We will
always endeavour to see you at the time you request, but please
understand minor emergencies take precedent over routine appointments
if necessary.
Our small
animal surgery times are:-
Mornings
Monday - Friday 9 am - 11am.
Saturday - 9am - 12am.
Evenings
Monday - Friday 3.30pm - 6.30 pm.
Operations
Animals
arriving for surgical procedures or operations should arrive
between 9.00 and 9.30am having had nothing to eat from 8.00pm
the night before, they are usually fit to go home later that
day.
Nurse
consultations
The nurse
is qualified to perform minor procedures and consultations.
Nurse consultations include:
- 2nd
Vaccinations.
- Claw
clipping/teeth/beak trimming
- Emptying
anal sacs
- Weight/obesity

- Geriatric
check-ups

blood samples
Nurse
clinics are run daily, so please specify if the appointment
is for the vet or the nurse.
House
visits
We do
provide a house visit service, however clients are encouraged
to be seen at the surgery, where we have all the equipment,
medication and staff to treat your pet quickly and to the
highest possible standard.
If transport is a problem may we suggest a taxi as a cheaper
option than a house call, or we can provide a collection service.
The Exception
to the above is for the euthanasia of a loved pet. We are
more than willing to visit you in your home to minimise distress.
House
visits obviously have to be arranged around surgery times,
unless it is an emergency. The best time is between 11am and
1pm – operations permitting, or after evening surgery.
There
is a standard charge for the visit and consultation; medication
etc is an additional charge.
