Ophthalmology

We take referrals for a wide range of medical & surgical ocular conditions in small animals

The presence of on-site specialists in internal medicine, cardiorespiratory medicine,  dermatology, soft tissue surgery, neurology and diagnostic imaging gives the benefit of a comprehensive approach to most conditions involving the eye.
