This month, we are delighted to welcome Valerie Lamb to our Internal Medicine department. She will be working with Allison van Gelderen until Flo Juvet returns from her Maternity Leave in June. In addition, Ian Nicholson joins us from the RVC as a Surgeon. He will be covering Orthopaedic and Soft Tissue surgery, particularly while Mark Bush is on study leave for his Orthopaedic RCVS Diploma exam in July.

We offer a unique guarantee for a number of our surgical procedures. For hip and knee joint replacement and for tibial plateau levelling osteotomies (TPLOs) we are so confident of our success rate that we will treat any complications directly relating to the procedure free of charge. No other referral centre in the UK offers this guarantee.

For total hip replacement (THR) we are offering fixed price fees of £4000 for small dogs and cats (less than 15kg)and £4500 for larger breeds. This includes the initial consultation and assessment, 2 re-check examinations and free x-rays at either 4 or 12 weeks after surgery.
