This team consists of 7 Veterinary Surgeons, 4 Registered Veterinary Nurses, 2 Student Veterinary Nurses, a Veterinary Care Assistant and 9 Support Staff. They have one Certificate holder in surgery at present and one Vet currently studying for a medicine certificate. They offer diagnostic imaging at 2 of our sites, dentals, lab work and surgical procedures. Their third branch carries out orthopaedic work and they see a varied range of cases; no two days are the same.
