Brockwell Veterinary surgery

Your Veterinary Surgery in South London opposite Herne Hill Station, established for 25 years an We are thrilled to embark on this new chapter with you all!

We are thrilled to announce that from October 2023, Brockwell Vets became fully independent once again! The new owners are William Chandler MRCVS and Jenny Kalogera MRCVS. William, who will be the primary vet at the clinic, brings his years of experience in local veterinary hospitals to the team, eager to continue providing exceptional care in a friendly and welcoming environment. Jenny, the previ

ous owner for the last 20 years, is indeed a familiar face at Brockwell and is proud to embark on this new chapter with William. Together, they are committed to building upon the legacy of Brockwell Vets, ensuring a seamless transition and providing consistent high-quality care for you and your beloved pets. In addition to our usual offerings, William has brought key additional services to the clinic, including advanced ultrasound (with echocardiography) and laparoscopic surgery. This means we can now offer more comprehensive diagnostics and treatment options right here at Brockwell Vets, saving you valuable time and travel. We understand that change can bring questions, and we are here to answer them. Please do not hesitate to reach out to William, Jenny, or any member of our friendly team.

Upgrade Loading!

The clinic has served Brockwell Vets well for many years but since returning to Independent ownership, we have started to outgrow the space.

We are upgrading the space doubling our consult room space. We are redesigning the look and feel to be more in line with our current branding. It is a much needed change and there will be more change to come down the line - we cannot wait to show you all the finished product.

Please bear with us, we will be maintaining as normal a service as we can for consults but procedures and inpatient care will be unaffected. The shop is crammed into a smaller space so please ask our team if you need anything - we can order next day!

Lots of love from the Will, Jenny and the team!

Purrrfect Reunion! 🐈😻

Meet Luna - the bold explorer that crossed the river from East London and was found by a caring member of public strolling the streets near Herne Hill. Thankfully she had a microchip and we were swiftly able to contact the owner! The relief in her voice was palpable. Luna had been missing for over a week and amazingly was in great health. Who knows what adventures she got up to!

Since microchip registration became a legal requirement in June last year it has made it much easier to reunite missing cats. So please, if you or anyone you know has not yet made it to the vets to get their microchip - do not hesitate to call and book it in.

As always Brockwell Vets is here as your local independent vets keeping your pets living their best lives.

A time to be thankful - one year on!

It seemed that winter woke up this morning - first frost!

I live locally and am lucky enough to be able to jog to work. My route takes me through Brockwell Park and I have loved to see how the place has changed over the year. I have seen the 'ugly ducklings' transform, the trees bloom and the leaves fall. Made me think how our veterinary clinic on the edge of the park has also changed over the year.

So what has changed?

We have invested heavily into new diagnostics and tools to help our team provide the care your pets deserve. This includes a complete in-house laboratory, a new ultrasound machine for detailed abdomen and heart scans, a new dental X-ray unit and a wonderful new laparoscopy set up for key-hole procedures.

Our new website is live as well as online bookings and easy WhatsApp communication with our team. We have welcomed three new and experienced staff member to the team. We will soon be even breaking ground into a grand refurbishment (details to follow) to improve the client experience, increase our consult room space and improve the comfort our patients.

What will never change though is our focus on providing excellent care while keeping our fees sensible. Our mission is your pet, living their best life and that will never ever change.

Remember Remember the 5th November 🎆🎆🎆

Crazy as it is, the time of year is upon us when explosives are sold freely and used without restraint. It is a distressing time for most animals and there appears to be no end in sight for the unregulated sale of fireworks. So let us focus on what we can do (ie rant over).

There are many 'extras' that can be helpful during this time but the safest and simplest first step for is to avoid walking later in the afternoon as it starts getting dark. 'Bolting' when stressed has led to some of the more serious problems we have faced - whether it is injuries or missing dogs and cats. For the stress whilst at home there are some medical and non-medical options that can be helpful but company is the most important. Medications (Sileo, trazadone, etc) can be very soothing for those dogs really affected.

We have seen many of our regulars who need extra support during this period - but if you are worried about fireworks and need some last minute help - please reach out to our team and we can help you out.

If anyone can get those cute ear protectors to market - we will be all ears!

🐾 Attention Cat Owners! 🐾

📢 The countdown is on! 📢

Starting from the 10th June, it will be mandatory for all cats over the age of 20 weeks to be microchipped. This ensures that if your beloved feline friend ever gets lost, they'll have a much higher chance of being reunited with you quickly and safely.

Why Microchip?
🔸 Safety: A microchip provides a permanent form of identification.
🔸 Peace of Mind: Helps ensure a swift return if your cat goes missing.
🔸 Legal Requirement: Comply with the latest regulations and avoid fines.

There is only one week to go! If you have any queries, or would like to get your little one booked in for a microchip, please give our friendly team a call on 020 7737 2526 or email [email protected].

A Taste of Summer ☀️☀️☀️

What a glorious weekend we just had. A taste of the Summer to come! I'm reminded of how important it is to adjust our pet care routines as the weather heats up. Here are a few tips to keep our animals feeling great!

Dogs 🐕‍🦺
- Dogs lose most of their heat through panting and so lots of cool water to stop them drying out.
- If it’s 20 degrees or below, you should be fine for normal activity. Anything above, and it’s time to chill inside until it cools down.
- Keep them out of the sun where possible - these darker coats absorb heat quick!
- Remember that older dogs, puppies, overweight dogs and those with flatter faces 'brachycephalic' will inevitably struggle more during the heat so please maintain extra caution.

Cats 🐈🐈‍⬛
- Open windows are a tempting space for cats - do not let your cat be a victim of a slip and a fall from a height - get those windows secured.
- Cats love to sunbathe - outdoor cars can usually find a cooler spot when they need, indoor cats need somewhere cooler to go too. If your flat heats up in the day try closing blinds / curtains to limit sun exposure.
- Older cats often dehydrate quickly - particularly those with kidney changes and it is super important to keep them really well hydrated - consider adding more water to the food or even getting a fountain to encourage them to drink
- Open sheds are a tempting spot to hide in the day, when those sheds close, so does the escape route! Please check these spots first in your neighbourhood if the cat is not home for dinner!

Rabbits 🐰
- Rabbit runs can get really warm so it is important to make sure yours is ready for the sun.
- Flystrike is a common problem that can thankfully be prevented with good routine care - good diet & hygiene primarily and check their bums and bellies twice a day
- Water - having plenty available is not always enough, have a couple available for each rabbit and keep them in the shade ideally (the metal drinkers can get hot in the sun)

If you have any questions or concerns then give us a call to speak to our friendly reception team on 02077372526 or email [email protected]

🐾🌷 Keep Your Furry Friends Safe this Easter! 🌷🐾

As Easter approaches, let's make sure our beloved pets stay happy and healthy. Here are some friendly reminders from your pals at Brockwell Vets to keep the festivities pet-friendly:

🍫 Choc-no-go Zone: Chocolate goodies might be tempting for us, but they're a big no-no for pets! Keep all Easter treats out of paw's reach to avoid potential chocolate toxicity.

🌷 Lilies are Lovely, but Deadly: Those beautiful Easter lilies may be a sight for sore eyes, but they can be harmful to our feline friends. Opt for pet-safe flowers or decorations to keep the celebration hazard-free.

🥚 Egg-citing but Beware: Easter egg hunts are a blast, but make sure to collect all the eggs afterward. Pets might mistake them for a tasty treat, and plastic or foil can pose a choking risk.

🧼 Hoppy Hygiene: Be cautious with Easter grass and plastic wrap! These can be intriguing to pets but are dangerous if ingested. Stick to pet-safe toys and treats for playtime.

🏡 Quiet Time for Your Pets: Easter gatherings can be overwhelming for our four-legged buddies. Create a cosy retreat with their favourite toys and blankets to help them relax away from the hustle and bustle.

Wishing you and your pets a safe and joyous Easter! 🌷🐣🐾 🐰💙
