Working together for your patients

When you refer a case to us, you remain an integral part of your patient's care journey. We see ourselves as an extension of your practice, providing advanced veterinary expertise while respecting the relationship you've built with your client and their pet. Our goal is to support you in delivering excellent care, not to replace the trusted service you provide.

We have highly skilled veterinary surgeons within our team, many with advanced certificates and we work alongside trusted visiting veterinary surgeons who bring additional expertise to our Highgate clinic. This means your clients can access advanced diagnostics and complex surgical procedures locally, without the stress and expense of travelling to distant referral centres.

Seamless communication

Supporting your clients

We recognise that advanced veterinary referrals can be stressful for pet owners, both emotionally and financially. We take time to explain everything clearly, provide detailed cost estimates upfront, and treat every patient with the compassion and care they deserve. We'll always keep your clients informed throughout their pet's treatment while ensuring you remain their primary veterinary care provider.

Continuing care

Once treatment is complete, ongoing care returns to you. We'll provide comprehensive handover information and remain available for follow-up queries or advice. For cases requiring long-term management, we're happy to work collaboratively on treatment plans that you can implement and monitor at your practice.

Get in touch

If you'd like to discuss a potential referral, need advice on a case, or simply want to learn more about our services, we're here to help. Our team is always happy to have an informal conversation about whether referral would benefit your patient.

We look forward to working with you to provide the best possible care for your patients and clients.
