Nurse consultations
Our veterinary nurses can offer advice, carry out routine procedures and support you with many aspects of your pet’s day to day care. Nurse appointments are friendly, practical and ideal for regular check- ins that help keep your pet healthy.
Why nurse consultations matter
Nurses play a vital role in preventive care. They have extensive training in nutrition, behaviour, wound care, dental hygiene, weight management and postoperative support. Regular nurse check- ups help you stay on top of your pet’s wellbeing and allow early detection of problems before they become more serious.
Nurse consultations are included in our PetPeople Health Plan, so you can see our nursing team as often as needed. We are open seven days a week with appointments from early morning into the early evening, making it easy to find a time that suits you.
