Advanced services

We have invested considerably in our team and kit to make a number of advanced services available to our clients. We also accept referrals from other practices.

Orthopaedics

Our veterinary team have undertaken advanced training to allow us to perform orthopaedic surgery in our practice. If your pet develops an abnormality involving their skeleton or joints, such as elbow dysplasia, a patella (kneecap) that gets stuck, or a torn cruciate ligament, an orthopaedic procedure may help them.

Ultrasound

We are pleased to be able to offer ultrasound scanning in practice, which is a painless way to look inside your pet’s body to find out what’s going on.

Ana Xavier

Practice Owner & Veterinary Surgeon

Read Ana Xavier bio

Having graduated from Lisbon University in 2005, Ana worked in Utrecht, Netherlands until moving to Britain in 2006. Her main areas of interest are endocrinology, orthopedics and acupuncture. Ana speaks fluently in 5 languages and occasionally she gets these mixed up which leaves the nurses very confused! She has 2 cats, Oli and Gorda, which she loves to bits, almost as much as her new husband, Jose, who is also a vet.

Vanessa Lambert

Veterinary Surgeon

Read Vanessa Lambert bio

Vanessa graduated from the Royal Veterinary College in 2004. Since then she has worked in various practices in Hertfordshire, Norfolk and Suffolk but she also spent some time doing charity work in the more exotic locations of Thailand, India and Cook Islands. She deeply enjoys working with small animals and has a keen interest in small animal medicine, so much so that she recently completed her General Practitioner Certificate in Small Animal Medicine. At home, Vanessa has one dog, one cat, one chicken and one child to keep her very busy!
