Specialist Care

In some cases, your pet may require more advanced diagnostics or surgery than what we can offer at the clinic. We work closely with several nearby specialist referral centres and can guide you through the referral process should the need arise.

Andrei Uricaru is a highly-experienced, freelance orthopaedic surgeon who can perform complex procedures here at the clinic. Procedures offered include surgical treatment of cruciate ligament disease, patellar luxation correction, arthoscopic investigations and fracture repair.

Dr Audrey Petite is a local specialist in advanced diagnostic imaging, who is available for referral consultations. She travels to our clinic to perform detailed ultrasound scans; obtaining biopsies and other samples, thus offering a less invasive alternative to surgery.

Dr Babis Koffas is a specialist cardiologist and fountain of knowledge when it comes to complicated cardiorespiratory cases. He is available for investigation of heart murmurs, irregular heart rhythms and investigation of exercise intolerance.

While we don’t currently offer hydrotherapy at the clinic, we’re happy to advise you on trusted local centres that provide this specialist service. Hydrotherapy can be a great way to support elderly or post-operative dogs with their mobility, helping them stay active and comfortable. Call us today and we’ll point you in the right direction.
