Nurse consultations
The nurse will see you now
​
Our team of qualified nurses are always on site to give advice and offer dedicated consults between 2-4pm on weekdays. As well as looking after your pets during their time in the practice, our team of qualified nurses also offer consultations for various things such as:
​
-
Puppy or kitten advice
-
Diet advice
-
Nail clips and anal gland expressions
-
Second vaccinations
-
Parasite control
-
Injections for allergies and arthritis once prescribed by a vet
​
Please note that nurses are not allowed to diagnose conditions so if your pet is unwell or injured they will need to see the vet initially to make a treatment plan.
