read moreWe provide an emergency service at Wendover Heights from 8.30am until 9.00pm daily. From 9.00pm until 8.30am, we have switched to using a dedicated out of hours provider, Hampden Veterinary Hospital in Aylesbury, who offer emergency overnight cover. Hampden have a team of on-site night vets and nurses and are located in Anchor Lane, Aylesbury, HP20 1AJ, near to the town centre. Hampden can be contacted on 01296 423666 and for further information, you can visit their website. We will continue to provide overnight care for any inpatients that are already with us so that they do not have to be moved between practices, unless we feel that it is in the pet's best interests to be moved for purposes of intensive monitoring.

This is why we stock a select range of cat and dog pet food in practice, helping to take the faff out of pet food for our clients by recommending diets that have been scientifically created to provide optimal nutrition, which tastes great!

Hydrotherapy involves the use of therapeutic exercise in warm water - a combination of warmth, buoyancy and hydrostatic pressure reduces pain and swelling, promotes muscle relaxation and improves circulation and healing. Exercising in water is effective in increasing proprioception, muscular and cardio-respiratory endurance, range of motion of the joints, general mobility and psychological well-being.

read moreUnlike in human hospitals we are not permitted by law to collect and store blood supplies for animal use. Severe sudden blood loss can be life threatening and a blood transfusion could be the only way to save a dog's life. We are therefore dependent on the help of willing volunteers who can come in at short notice and allow us to collect blood from their dog for transfusion. If your dog meets these criteria and you would be willing for your pet to provide a lifeline for a fellow dog in need, please let us know.
