Our stock includes various specialised diets by Burgess Supafeeds for rabbits and guinea pigs.

All of our veterinary nurses have completed a minimum of two years formal training and examinations covering practical and theoretical aspects of animal nursing. The training scheme and examinations are supervised by the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons and further details for budding nurses can be found on the RCVS website - https://www.rcvs.org.uk/home

Our qualified nurses are listed with the RCVS, enabling them to undertake a range of procedures. They are actively involved in assisting the veterinary surgeons in the consulting rooms, operating theatres and X-ray department. All nurses provide constant care for the hospitalized pets following surgery. Our nurses can discuss problems with clients on a friendly basis over the counter or by telephone. They regularly perform some basic laboratory tests and monitor anaesthetics under the supervision of the veterinary staff. Qualified veterinary nurses are required to improve and update their skills by regularly attending continuing professional development (CPD) courses and seminars.

During our Nurse Clinics, our qualified nurses can perform minor procedures and give a range of advice and practical help on a wide variety of different topics:

- Free puppy and kitten health checks

- New pet health care

We routinely see rabbits and rodents for vaccinations, neutering and health checks. We are happy to see other exotic species for basic consultations and health exams and routinely consult with specialists about conditions if needed.

For more complex conditions we may recommend visiting a vet with further qualifications in exotic veterinary medicine.
