We microchip cats and dogs. We are able to scan and quickly rehome the many stray dogs that are bought to us, especially after storms.
Oncology
Oncology has become a very important part of our practice with many patients receiving chemotherapy, usually after surgical resection of tumours. We frequently utilise the services of specialist veterinary oncologists via email and telephone consultations, to help us tailor the chemotherapy protocols.
Dental Care
Dentistry for your pet has become a very important part of preventative health care. Often this can be overlooked as our pets can’t tell us that they have a sore tooth and most of the time they don’t show many outward signs of dental disease. Examination is the key to determining whether treatment is needed. …
Cryosurgery
Used especially for shallow skin tumours such as skin cancer in cats.
Desexing
Desexing helps in your pet’s long term health and behaviour training.
Cremation
In the sad event of a pet’s death, we are able to organise cremation and return of the ashes.
Ultrasound
Ultrasound has become an invaluable tool in small animal diagnostics. We are fortunate to have state of the art machines which are used frequently for important diagnostic work at Belmont and Charlestown. We are skilled at heart and abdominal ultrasonography.
Pathology
In-house pathology is available as well as through Symbion Pathology, who provide us with prompt and efficient service, and the back up of trained pathologists with whom we can liaise for those difficult cases.
Endoscopy
These are fibre optic tools used in the gastrointestinal and respiratory tract often proving invaluable to us in making some diagnoses which would have been difficult without it. They often allow us to avoid invasive surgery.
Electrocardiography
The ECG/EKG helps us in the diagnosis of heart disease in pets.
