K-laser Therapy
Our Class IV K-laser therapy provides non-pharmaceutical pain relief for pets. This advanced treatment accelerates tissue healing while reducing inflammation and swelling. Clinically proven for conditions like osteoarthritis and cystitis, it's covered by most pet insurance policies. Sessions typically last 15-30 minutes with visible results after 3-4 treatments.
Pet Vaccinations
We offer comprehensive vaccination programmes for dogs, cats, and rabbits. Our protocols follow the latest veterinary guidelines to protect against common infectious diseases. Vaccination packages include health checks and are tailored to each pet's lifestyle and risk factors. Annual boosters maintain continuous protection for your pet.
Emergency Care
Available 24/7 for critical pet emergencies, our experienced team handles accidents, injuries, and acute medical conditions. We have immediate access to diagnostic tools including digital X-ray and ultrasound. Emergency consultations include stabilisation, pain management, and follow-up care plans for complex cases.
Neutering Services
We provide safe neutering procedures for cats and dogs with pre-operative health assessments. Our packages include pain management and post-operative care instructions. The cost varies based on animal size and complexity, with discounts available through our Pet Health Club membership programme.
Dental Care
