Hospital kennels constructed in stainless steel for maximum comfort and hygiene. Walk in kennels for larger patients and an isolation kennel for those with suspected infectious or contagious disease, which may require barrier nursing.

Payment

To ensure fee levels are kept as reasonable as possible, we expect payment in full to be made at the conclusion of a course of treatment. We accept all major credit cards.

With the spiralling costs of diagnostic tests and treatments and the increasing sophistication of surgical proceedures, we would advise you to insure your pets. Please phone or ask at reception for more details
