Dental care
We approach dental care differently, starting with a dental exam at every single check-up to catch issues early. We’ve moved beyond surprise mid-procedure calls about extractions and unexpected costs. Our modern, staged approach prioritises your pet’s safety and your peace of mind. If a professional clean is recommended, Stage One includes scaling, polishing, and vital full-mouth digital X-rays for a complete assessment. We then discuss the findings and X-rays with you thoroughly. Should extractions be necessary, they are planned as a separate, scheduled Stage Two procedure, ensuring safer, shorter anaesthetics and providing you with clear, upfront cost estimates.

Vaccinations
Vaccinations are far more than just a quick jab; they represent a vital annual health check for your pet. Recognising this may be their only vet visit all year, we conduct a thorough nose-to-tail examination assessing overall wellbeing, not just immunity. We strive to make appointments stress-free, especially for anxious pets, offering pre-visit calming medication and utilising fear-free techniques like treats, pheromones, and a gentle approach. Vaccination plans are carefully tailored to your pet’s specific lifestyle and risks – never one-size-fits-all. We are also licensed to administer rabies vaccinations for travel or necessary situations. Every visit concludes with a detailed health assessment report.

Senior Pets
We are passionate about senior pet care, believing age itself is not a diagnosis. Signs like slowing down often stem from treatable conditions, not just ‘getting old’. Our focus includes early detection via health checks, tailored diets and medications, plus chronic pain management, including expert arthritis care. We offer comprehensive support like cardiology consultations, senior blood testing, and help for cognitive dysfunction (dementia). Importantly, we don’t avoid essential treatments like dental care in older pets; we manage risks to ensure procedures are safe and beneficial, enhancing their overall wellbeing and ensuring a comfortable life.
