Services
Vaccinations
We provide comprehensive vaccination programmes for dogs, cats, and rabbits. Our core vaccines protect against life-threatening diseases like parvovirus, distemper, and feline leukaemia. Puppies and kittens receive tailored schedules starting at 7-8 weeks, with annual boosters maintaining immunity. Pet Health Club members receive vaccinations as part of their plan, ensuring continuous protection against preventable illnesses while offering cost savings for responsible pet owners.
Wellness screening
Our comprehensive wellness screens detect early signs of disease in mature pets. Including blood tests, urine analysis, and physical examinations, these assessments identify conditions like kidney disease and arthritis. Recommended annually for pets over 5 years (3 years for giant breeds), the 30-minute appointments include dietary advice and parasite protection reviews. Early detection enables timely intervention, improving treatment outcomes and maintaining quality of life for ageing animals.
Eye surgery
Snowdonia Eye Vets provides specialist ophthalmic services for complex eye conditions. Equipped with slit lamps, retinal cameras, and phacoemulsification equipment, we treat cataracts, glaucoma, and corneal ulcers. Our dedicated operating suite and experienced veterinary ophthalmologists deliver advanced care for referral cases, ensuring optimal visual outcomes. Emergency eye consultations are available for urgent cases requiring specialist intervention.
Acupuncture
Veterinary acupuncture treats musculoskeletal and chronic conditions in cats and dogs. Administered by certified practitioners, this complementary therapy addresses arthritis pain, mega colon in cats, and wound healing. As an adjunct to conventional treatments, acupuncture offers pain relief for pets with mobility issues or post-surgical recovery needs, providing holistic care options for pet owners seeking alternative treatment approaches.
Pet nutrition
Our nutrition consultations address dietary requirements for pets with medical conditions. We recommend scientifically formulated diets for renal disease, gastrointestinal issues, and mobility problems. With hydrolysed food options for allergies and probiotic supplements for digestive health, our tailored nutrition plans consider each pet's specific needs. Registered veterinary nurses provide guidance on weight management and dietary transitions, ensuring optimal nutritional support for pets at all life stages.
