You'll have clinical freedom, a varied caseload, and opportunities to specialise-whether that's studying for a certificate, offering specialist services, or advancing your surgical expertise. We also work closely with Cats Protection, running a dedicated cat clinic.

Both branches are fully equipped with the latest veterinary tools, including iM3 dental machines, digital radiology, and IDEXX biochemistry and haematology equipment. We are committed to ongoing investment in our facilities. We have recently installed a brand-new dental x-ray machine in our Arbroath branch to further enhance our dentistry services.
