Its vets handle complex operations and give second opinions, with endoscopy, pathology, x-ray and ultrasound all on the premises. Puppy school sessions fall on Saturday afternoons and on Thursday evenings. Cats board on site, and dogs are sent to a partner hotel instead. Outside opening hours emergencies are passed to SASH Alexandria Veterinary Emergency and Specialists, so call ahead before setting out.
