A popular vet practice in Heavitree in Exeter has achieved a coveted wildlife award in its drive to create a friendly space for humans and animals.
Devon Wildlife Trust has recognised Linnaeus-owned City Vets’ wildlife garden due to its welcoming environment for animals.
The garden project was started a year ago by registered veterinary nurse Marianne Segev and veterinary surgeon Fay Dimaline, with donations and support from colleagues.
Fay helped Marianne build the garden on her day off and collected a lot of plants along with donations from other staff members...
A top Devon primary care vet practice is throwing open its doors for one day only so pet owners can meet the team and view its first-class facilities.
The fun-packed afternoon takes place at Linnaeus-owned City Vets’ Heavitree Hospital on Saturday, June 17, between 2pm and 5pm, and will see plenty of activities on offer, plus a starring role by Guide Dogs.
There will also be the opportunity to tour the practice’s recently completed £350,000 extension and see its new £125,000 state-of-the-art CT scanner in action.
A top animal hospital in Devon has been recognised as the crème de la crème in cat care.
City Vets in Exeter, which is owned by Linnaeus, has scooped a coveted International Society of Feline Medicine (ISFM) gold award for its highly-respected Heavitree pet hospital.
It’s the ultimate ISFM accolade and is only awarded to veterinary centres which deliver the highest level of care and facilities for cats. Heavitree’s delighted cat advocate, vet nurse Marianne Segev, says she’s feline fine after landing such a prestigious award.
Exeter based, independent veterinary practice CityVets, are reassuring all pet owners that they are open for emergencies, patients requiring urgent treatment, medication and pet food throughout the pandemic, come what may.
CityVets has four practices in Exeter, however, at this time two of the branches - the Alphington and Whipton practices have been temporarily closed. The Heavitree Veterinary Hospital and the St Thomas (101 Buddle Lane) branch remain open for phone advice, enquiries and emergency appointments and treatment.
Cowick & St Thomas PCSO and CityVets have teamed up to promote responsible pet ownership by offering microchips completely free of charge. This is all possible due to the PCSO securing POCA (Proceeds of Crime Act) funds.
The microchips will be supplied by Pet Identity. The great thing about Pet Identity is that you can update any future changes for free.
The offer is open to all species, all ages. There is no requirement to be an existing CItyVets client, the offer is open to everyone.
I’m sure you're aware that it’s now a legal requirement to have your dog...
CityVets, a Veterinary Practice in Exeter, is using pioneering Adipose Stem Cell treatment on a four year old Siamese cat called Pharaoh who has been diagnosed with a previously untreatable disease called Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP).
Using Adipose stem cell therapy, a relatively new treatment that CityVets has been using for chronic arthritis in dogs, Veterinary Surgeon Ed Pattison has adapted this technique using Pharaoh’s own fat cells to create unique stem cells that are used in an attempt to stop the progression of FIP and prolong his life.
CityVets today announced that it has achieved hospital status from the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons.
With a member of staff on the premises 24 hours a day, this means that the CityVets veterinary team are always on hand and responsible for the care of animal patients.
