OUR SERVICES

As veterinary medicine becomes more advanced and specialised, you can rest assured that our experienced staff provide a full range of services and our medical facility is well equipped, allowing immediate workup and treatment of cases. Being a 24hr hospital means we have an experienced team headed by a veterinarian on site and dedicated to the care of your pet, at all times.

We offer preventative health care but are also here to help when your pet becomes sick or injured and in any emergency.

We have CCTV monitoring and secure parking. Our friendly receptionists will greet you and help you with your pets admission as well as your regular queries and purchases from our shop. We have 2 surgical suits, digital x-ray, fibreoptic endoscope, ultrasound machine, microscope, centrifuge, blood pressure machine and an in-house blood laboratory, to allow for prompt blood results and work up of cases.

“To all the Wonderful People who work at Hillcrest Veterinary Hospital, Teddy-Boy, my treasured Biewer Terrier, and I would like to say a Great Big THANK YOU for all you did, not only to save his life, but also to nurture him back to health, after his awful ordeal on the night of 18th Sept when he was so badly mauled by his big sister, a Belgium Shepherd.
The efficient and professional service was outstanding and all the while your personal touch made the last month so much less anxious and stressful to get through than it could otherwise have been for us both.
The genuine caring and helpfulness from each and every member who dealt with us was exceptional and I will be forever grateful.”
