Pet Vaccinations
We provide comprehensive vaccination programs for dogs, cats, and rabbits to prevent life-threatening diseases. Our veterinary nurses conduct full health checks during appointments, administer core vaccines like distemper and feline leukaemia, and advise on travel requirements. Vaccination schedules are tailored to each pet's lifestyle and age, with automated reminders to ensure timely boosters. Pet Health Club members receive discounted rates on all vaccination packages.
Dental Care
Our dental services address common issues like tartar buildup, gingivitis, and periodontal disease through professional scaling and polishing under anaesthesia. We offer preventative care advice including tooth brushing techniques and dietary recommendations. Advanced cases may require extractions or specialist periodontal treatment. Regular dental check-ups form part of our wellness screening packages, with early intervention helping prevent systemic complications like heart disease.
Emergency Services
Lime Trees Vets provides 24/7 emergency veterinary care for critical cases outside regular hours. Our equipped facilities handle trauma, poisoning, breathing difficulties, and other life-threatening conditions. Emergency appointments are prioritised based on severity, with dedicated staff available for immediate assessment and stabilisation. Clients receive clear guidance on after-hours procedures during initial consultations.
Referral Surgery
We accept referrals for complex surgical cases including orthopaedic procedures, soft tissue surgery, and advanced imaging diagnostics. Our multidisciplinary team collaborates with primary vets to develop tailored treatment plans. Facilities include CT scanning equipment and dedicated surgical theatres. Referral cases benefit from coordinated aftercare and follow-up with the original veterinary practice.
Pet Wellness Screening
Our wellness screening packages detect early signs of conditions like kidney disease and arthritis through blood tests, urinalysis, and physical examinations. Recommended annually for mature pets, these assessments include joint mobility evaluations and parasite protection reviews. Early diagnosis enables proactive management of age-related conditions, with screening costs discounted for Pet Health Club members.
