What we do

Six things, from the routine to the 2am.

Each has its own page: what it involves, what it costs, and who does it. Every price is on the prices page before you ring, and the health plan takes 10% off all of it.

All six treatment areas

01

Vaccinations and health checks

The routine care that keeps a pet out of the other pages: first vaccinations for puppies and kittens, annual boosters with a full health check, microchipping, flea and worm treatment, and the health plan that spreads it all over the year for a monthly direct debit.

Booster with health check £55, puppy or kitten course £75 for both visits, microchip £20.

02

Surgery and dentistry

Two operating theatres in the barn, a dedicated dental suite and a recovery ward with a nurse on it all day. Neutering, lump removals, abdominal and soft-tissue surgery, fracture repair and cruciate surgery, and the dental work that most pets over five quietly need.

Cat neuter from £95, dog neuter from £220 by weight, dental scale and polish from £320 including the anaesthetic and x-rays.

03

Emergencies and out of hours

When something happens at 2am, you ring 01632 960 813 and one of our own vets answers. They know the practice, the kit and usually the animal, and they see you here, not at a hospital forty miles away. The out-of-hours fee is £160 on top of treatment, and we will tell you on the phone what it is likely to cost.

Out-of-hours consultation £160 plus treatment, told to you on the phone first.

04

Diagnostics: imaging and laboratory

Digital x-ray and ultrasound in the barn, an in-house laboratory that turns a blood profile round in twenty minutes, endoscopy, blood pressure and ECG, so that most of the finding-out happens in one visit rather than a week of waiting.

Blood profile £95, x-rays under sedation from £180, ultrasound from £140, all with the results explained the same day.

05

Senior pets and long-term conditions

Dogs over eight and cats over ten are the fastest-growing part of the practice. Six-monthly senior checks, arthritis clinics with the nurses, the long-term conditions managed with monthly plans, and honest conversations about quality of life when the time comes.

Senior check £48 (free on the health plan, twice a year), arthritis nurse clinic £25, repeat prescription checks £32.

06

Rabbits, guinea pigs and small pets

Rabbits are the third most common pet in Britain and the most often let down by vets who treat them as small cats. Cerys is our rabbit and small-mammal lead: vaccination, neutering, dentistry, gut stasis emergencies, and husbandry advice that prevents most of it.

Consultation £48, rabbit vaccination £48 once a year, rabbit neuter from £110, dental burring from £140.

The barn

Two theatres, a lab, a ward and a quiet room.

The Old Barn was converted in 2011 around what a small-animal practice actually needs: four consulting rooms, two operating theatres, a dental suite, digital x-ray and ultrasound, an in-house laboratory, a recovery ward with a nurse on it all day, a separate ward for rabbits and small pets, and a quiet room with its own door to the garden for the hardest appointments.

  • Everything under one roof, so most things are done the same day
  • A nurse monitoring every anaesthetic
  • Referral surgeons and specialists we know by name for the rest

Register a pet, or book an appointment.

Registration takes five minutes and we request the history from your previous vet. Sick pets are seen the same day, emergencies at once, and out of hours one of our own vets answers 01632 960 813. Every price is on the website.
