Triage and assessment

A nurse assesses your pet on arrival. Patients are seen by urgency, so critically unwell pets are treated first. We keep you informed if there is a wait.

Treatment and next steps

The vet discusses tests, options and estimated costs before proceeding wherever possible. Payment is required at the time of treatment. Afterpay, VetPay and GapOnly accepted.

If your pet needs to stay overnight

Some pets need fluids, pain relief or monitoring through the night. If yours does, they stay with us and go back to your regular vet in the morning.
