Soft Tissue Surgery
More and more vets are becoming aware of our extremely user-friendly specialist-led surgery service. We offer a full range of soft tissue (and orthopaedic) surgeries - please send us an enquiry or referral and we will take great care of your patient and client .
Ian Nicholson, Barney Dean (RCVS and European recognised Specialists in small animal surgery) and Richard Murphy (Certificate Holder) work seamlessly with our Internal Medicine team where cases require the input of both disciplines.
We are known for our clear communication and always happy to give you a free of charge, no obligation second opinion. We treat patients as if they were own pets, supporting their owners throughout the journey as well.
We only ever operate when surgery is truly indicated - we will always explore and explain any conservative options first.
We keep an eye on costs, offering various packages and we also make direct insurance claims.
Referring vets have an open invitation to attend any surgery on their patients.
