| OUR
SERVICES AND FACILITIES Our aim at Lingfield Lodge is to provide a comprehensive health care service for our clients' pets. The practice is registered as a Veterinary Nurse Training Centre and also has reached the British Small Animal Veterinary Association's high standards for a veterinary clinic |
| When
a patient's condition requires investigation beyond an examination by
the veterinary surgeon, as in human medicine, a variety of tests may be advised.
We have on site excellent laboratory equipment able to analyse blood samples and give
results, if necessary, within minutes. Other diagnostic aids available include an ECG
machine to analyse heart function, an ultra sound machine to allow scanning of internal
organs and, of course. X-ray facilities including specialised techniques using X-rays
with contrast media allowing us to investigate kidney and bladder problems (urography) and
spinal problems (myelography). |
| Having
made use of our diagnostic aids we also have comprehensive surgical
facilities allowing most procedures to be undertaken. For dental work we have an
up to date compressed air driven dental machine to help us keep your pet's teeth
clean, and healthy - as well as helping to maintain fresh breath! |
| Nearly
all of the prescription medicines we prescribe are kept in stock. We
also keep in stock a wide range of easily used and effective wormers and flea control
products and a comprehensive range of top quality dog and cat foods, this includes
a range of specialised foods used as an aid in the treatment of specific conditions
for example diabetes, liver or kidney problems, obesity etc. On the subject of weight
control clients are welcome to come to the surgery at any time to check their pet's weight. |
| HOUSE
VISITS We can arrange a house visit if requested although, of course, there are limits to what can be done at home. If transport is simply the problem we can arrange for one of our staff to collect and return the patient home. |
