Veterinary Services
Comprehensive veterinary services in Kidderminster, Worcestershire
Our vets offer consultations by appointment, during which they will listen to any concerns you may have, examine your pet, and take a detailed medical history. When waiting for an appointment, our separate dog and cat waiting areas will hopefully lessen the stress for you and your pet.
Laser Therapy
Treatments take only a few minutes and are totally painless.
Prices range between £18-£25
per session, depending on condition being treated.
Expert care for your furry friend
The care of your pet is our top priority. Our 24-hour emergency service means that we are on hand to offer expert veterinary care, advice and emergency treatment 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
We are able to offer some complex procedures e.g. orthopaedics, gastrointestinal surgery, ocular examinations and surgeries without the need for distant referral in most cases.

Veterinary consultations
Our registered, qualified nurses are also available for consultations by appointment. They also offer a wide range of services such as puppy parties, and dental, weight, senior pet and behaviour clinics.
If your pet needs to stay with us, we have completely separate dog, cat and isolation hospitalisation facilities on our purpose-built premises.
Hospitalisation and surgical procedures
If your pet requires hospitalisation, following surgery or because they require intensive care and treatment, we have separate dog and cat hospitalisation facilities on-site in our purpose built-premises.
Within our purpose-built facilities, we have a designated operating theatre which enables us to carry out a wide range of surgical procedures at your convenience.
We can also generate our own pure oxygen for our critical patients (even a medium sized dog can exhaust purchased bottles very quickly!), so we have a limitless supply when needed.
Pet Travel
From the 1st of January 2021 the regulations and requirements for pet travel from the UK to mainland Europe have changed.
Previously issued and accepted UK pet passports will not be accepted as valid for travel to Europe with these changes.
With these changes you will now need an Animal Health Certificate (AHC) to travel with your dog, cat or ferret.
These AHCs must be issued by an Official Veterinary Surgeon (2 of our vets are available for this service) and are valid for travel to specific destination states for 10 days from the date of issue. They are valid for return to the UK up to 4 months from the date of issue. An AHC is only valid for one trip.
For your pet to travel with an ACH it must:
Be over 12 weeks of age (16 weeks for some destinations),
Must be microchipped with information up to date
Have had a rabies vaccination at least 21 days prior to the issue of the AHC.
Before you plan to travel please contact the surgery in good time as there is some information we require before we can complete the AHC so we will need this in advance of your appointment.
When you attend your appointment, you will need:
To bring your pet for his/her microchip to be verified,
Proof of a valid, in date rabies vaccine, (UK Pet passport if you have one already issued),
Written authorisation if you will not be accompanying your pet naming the person who will be responsible for them during travel,
Proof of entry to an event if travelling for the purpose of competition.
Please note that the AHC is not for animals that are being sold or used for commercial purposes.
Please note that entry to European countries must be through specific entry points.
In some cases, different countries may have extra requirements such as a valid rabies blood test. More information about which countries this may be should be checked online here as this information changes regularly
If you would like any more information or to book an appointment prior to travel, please contact us
