20.01.2022 Elf is checking a slide with the microscope. We offer different types of in house cytology which can often be done during your appointment. We do a cell examination on these slides using different methods of staining or non stained to help determine treatment or the need for further investigation. Cytology helps us to diagnose ear infections, cancerous lumps, urine issues, blood disorders skin parasites etc.

20.01.2022 Dr Caroline and Dr Georgina spent a full weekend in Adelaide at an advanced ultrasound course. Their ongoing education had enhanced their knowledge in diagnostic imaging. They were so excited to get back to work and put into practice what they had learnt.

13.01.2022 ~ Meet Sadie ~ This beautiful blue eyed rag doll presented to the clinic with ongoing vomiting and just not her usual bright and active self. Upon X-ray we could see a very radio opaque dense object in her small intestine. She was taken in to surgery later the same day where a laparotomy was performed by Dr Caroline to remove the object. Luckily Sadie has recovered well from the surgery but the object is still a mystery to us and her owners

09.01.2022 We had an injured turtle with a damaged shell dropped in to us by a wildlife carer. Dr Caroline managed to repair the break with fibre glass, once dried and set we were able to have him released back to the wild, great outcome!

02.01.2022 Murphy the Cocker Spaniel is a very special patient of ours - he has had a big year which started with a hospital stay for pancreatitis. The pancreas is a special organ with many functions - it produces hormones to regulate the blood sugar levels and enzymes which break down food in the small intestine. It can get upset though, more often in overweight dogs, or after a particularly fatty meal (sausages, fat off cuts, ham, bacon etc.). In some cases like Murphy this... makes the dog quite unwell and is painful and means they need to stay in hospital for a few days to get better ! Murphy’s owner has done so well with his weight and this is an appreciation post as Murphy has lost 3Kg on his new diet regime!! Well done Murph! This should ensure he doesn’t experience pancreatitis again!!! Please avoid high fat foods in dogs, but if you do think your dog is unwell give us a call, there’s a quick blood test we can do at the clinic and have a result for you in 30minutes which will tell us if the pancreas is unhappy See more
