Annual Health Checks

A yearly health check is essential—even pets that appear well can hide early signs of illness. Our thorough examinations include nose-to-tail assessments: eyes, ears, teeth, coat, nails, heart, lungs, abdomen, and mobility, thanks in part to our practice garden for movement screening.

Vaccinations & Microchipping

Keep your pets safe from serious diseases through timely vaccinations and boosters. We also provide microchipping to ensure your pet has the best chance of being reunited with you if lost. It’s a quick, safe procedure with lifelong benefits.

Preventive Care & Advice

We offer parasite control solutions tailored to your pet’s lifestyle—from fleas to worms. Our team also provides expert nutritional and weight advice for pets of every life stage, helping them stay healthy and active.

Neutering Procedures

Our neutering services are safe, routine, and designed with your pet’s long-term health in mind. We offer full guidance before and after the procedure, ensuring you’re well-prepared and your pet is comfortable throughout.

Dental Care Services

Our dental services help protect your pet from common oral health issues. We offer scale and polish treatments, dental x-rays, and tailored dental plans to prevent gum disease, manage tartar build-up, and maintain strong, healthy teeth for the long term.

Home Visits

If getting to the clinic is difficult, our team can arrange home visits for your convenience. This ensures your pet can receive the necessary care in a familiar, stress-free environment.

Nurse Clinics

Our nurse-led clinics offer valuable support throughout your pet’s life. From post-operative checks and weight management to parasite prevention and general wellbeing advice, our nurses provide compassionate, practical care.

Pet Travel & Health Certificates

Planning to travel with your pet? Following Brexit, UK-issued pet passports for the EU are no longer valid. We issue Animal Health Certificates (EHCs)— valid for up to four months—and can guide you through rabies vaccination timing, tapeworm treatment (e.g. for Finland, Ireland, etc.), and export health documentation.
