🌟 Meet Claudia! 🌟

We’re delighted to introduce the newest face at Forestside Veterinary Clinic - Claudia, our wonderful reception team member who joined us a few months ago and has already become a brilliant part of the clinic.

Originally from England, Claudia has recently settled in Lisburn and brought her passion for animal care with her. She loves getting to know our clients, building trust with pets and their owners, and helping make every visit as smooth and welcoming as possible. 💙🐾

At home, Claudia is kept busy by her Bengal cat Ray-Ray, who’s full of energy and character (as only a Bengal can be!). And when she’s off duty, you’ll find her outdoors, cooking up something delicious, or dancing.

If you see Claudia at the desk, be sure to say hello - she’s always happy to help! ✨

Is surgery really the only way? Your dog might disagree… 😉

Ask us about Suprelorin, the clever little implant that keeps his options open!

At Forestside Vets, we’re often asked about alternatives to surgical castration for male dogs. One option that’s becoming increasingly popular is the Suprelorin® implant - a small, reversible hormone implant that temporarily reduces fertility and testosterone. It’s widely used across Europe, ...

🐾 Milo the Boxer puppy was in today for his manicure… and honestly, judging by the size of him at just 3 months old, we think he’s going to be an absolute monster (in the best way 🤣).

👻 They say every old building has a few ghosts… so we decided to check!

From gardeners and war-time nurses to engineers and even funeral directors, Galwally Lodge has seen a lot of residents over the past 140 years - so we wouldn’t be too surprised if a few decided to stick around 😅

Some say you can still hear footsteps in the corridors late at night… others say it’s just Andrew and Rory checking the inpatients. We’ll let you decide. 👀
