🩼Bluetongue Ram Vaccine Day🐑

With the current Bluetongue Situation in England we have seen the demand for Vaccination soar, making the supply chain a bit slower than normal. In light of this we are advising to ring in with your order sooner rather than later. If you would like to vaccinate your whole flock we advise that you call the practice to add your name to our vaccine waiting list. However, we are conscious that finances may be tight, and you may want to only protect certain animals in your flock. In light of this we are looking to offer a Ram Vaccine day at the clinic.

To register your interest, and for more information, please call the office on 01273 473232 (opt 2). If there is sufficient uptake we will organise a date and inform the interested clients.

Welcome to our new vet Charlie! 🩺

Some of you may recognise him as a local farmer or from all the time he spent with us as a student. He has a great first few of weeks at work, getting stuck in at every opportunity - from emergencies, scanning, enucleations and blowing a tyre on day 4 🚙

We are sure you will join us in being friendly faces on farm and welcoming him to the team!
