Routine Surgery
We perform routine elective surgery from Monday to Friday. This includes neutering of dogs, cats, rabbits and other small pets. We also perform a lot of soft tissue & orthopaedic surgery.
Advanced Surgery
Advanced soft tissue surgery, surgical oncology and many different types of orthopaedic procedures including cruciate & patella surgeries are regularly carried out at Forest Hill Veterinary Hospital.
Our Vets are very experienced surgeons who regularly perform complex procedures that many vets would refer to specialist surgeons. This has the advantage of your pet being cared for by a familiar team & also of reducing the cost of surgery.
