Consultations are by appointment only. We run appointments all day for routine and emergency consultations. For more complicated cases, such as skin problems, we will extend the length of our consultations to allow plenty of time to assess your pet and give it the best possible treatment. We prefer to attend to animals at the surgery as examination can be more thorough and all the necessary equipment and drugs are to hand. However, essential home visits can usually be arranged during weekday mornings, although they incur an extra charge. The supply of many medicines is controlled by law and requires a prescription. We usually supply such medicines directly but can provide a written prescription, if requested, to allow the drug to be sourced from another veterinary surgeon or pharmacy. Our veterinary surgeons can tell you the price of any product which they propose to dispense.
