In An Emergency
After surgery hours, please call the practice number and listen to the automated message which will direct you to our out-of-hours provider Vets Now.
These professional and experienced vets and nurses are specialised emergency care providers.
What’s more, they are based at our Brinkley Lane practice, so you don’t have to worry about travelling to an unfamiliar location in an already stressful situation.
Vets Now are available every evening and weekend, all year round, so you know that there is always help on hand even after our normal practice hours.
