Birds
African greys, macaws, budgies, cockatiels, conures, finches and lovebirds.
Turtles & tortoises
Shell, skin and nutrition, with digital X-ray for shells and skeletons.
Guinea pigs & small pets
Guinea pigs, hamsters and gerbils, and the occasional rescued squirrel.
One clinic for all of them.

Answers in the same building.

Surgery
Under the lights,
nothing is routine.
Pre-surgery bloodwork in our own lab the same morning. Gaseous anaesthesia, gentler on heart and lungs, with faster recovery. Suture checks and follow-ups planned before your pet goes home.
