Emergency Veterinary Services
Our 24-hour hospital in Bradley Stoke provides urgent care for pets at any time. Equipped with advanced anaesthesia monitoring and dedicated specialists, we handle critical cases including trauma, poisoning, and acute illnesses. Clients across Bristol and surrounding areas can access immediate treatment, with prices starting at 275 for out-of-hours appointments.
Pet Vaccinations
We offer tailored vaccination programmes for dogs, cats, and rabbits to prevent life-threatening diseases. Core vaccines include protection against distemper, leptospirosis, and feline leukaemia. Puppies and kittens receive full courses, while adults benefit from annual boosters. Vaccinations are included in our Pet Health Club plans, ensuring lifelong disease prevention.
Wellness Screening
Comprehensive health assessments for mature pets identify early signs of kidney disease, arthritis, and dental issues. Our 85 screening includes blood tests, weight checks, and dietary advice. Early detection allows prompt intervention, improving long-term outcomes. Pet Health Club members receive 10-20% discounts on this preventative care service.
K-Laser Therapy
Available at our Yate surgery, K-Laser therapy reduces pain and inflammation for pets with osteoarthritis or post-surgical conditions. Treatments last 3-8 minutes, with recommended sessions every other day for a week. This non-invasive option enhances tissue repair and mobility, offering an alternative to medication for chronic pain management.
Acupuncture
Provided by qualified veterinary surgeon Ellie Cliff in Thornbury, acupuncture alleviates pain from arthritis and muscle spasms. Sessions involve placing fine needles at specific points to stimulate nerve pathways. Most pets require weekly treatments for 4-6 weeks, with 80% showing improvement. This complementary therapy works alongside conventional treatments for enhanced recovery.
