They support each other clinically and case discussions are positively encouraged as part of a culture of support and collaboration.
They have a range of diagnostic equipment, Digital x-ray, ultrasound, endoscopes, fully equipped laboratory, blood pressure monitor and various other smaller pieces of equipment. They have infusion pumps to support their hospitalised animals and two fully equipped dental machines.
