Caring for your pet

Our Team

Dr Alex Melrose

B.V.Sc., M.R.C.V.S.

Practice Principal

Alex checking Vegas (our clinic's 3 year old chocolate Burmese) over for injuries from lying around too much (Even the average cat sleeps 16 hours a day! The sleepiest of all mammals).

Vegas's more rounded and definitely more silent shadow Jim, would be close by, probably eating some stolen nurses sandwiches. Keep an eye out for these two cats in the waiting room looking for attention.

Alex also has a fantastic Black Brussels Griffon, Prince. He's friendly to one & all, knows lots of tricks, is sneaky, very fast & can swim. Check him out on his facebook page.

Thank you so much for the wonderful care you gave our dear Beatrice when she had her surgery yesterday. It made it much easier to leave her there knowing she would be in good hands. She is doing fine and her bandage is still intact!
