Practice Price List

PAYMENT. Maintaining a forward-looking professional practice and keeping up to date with advances in technique, equipment, and medication require a considerable, ongoing, financial commitment. We therefore require payment to be made at the time of each consultation or on collection of your pet after surgery or hospitalisation. We accept that this may not always be possible and if there is any difficulty please discuss the matter with the receptionists or with one of the veterinary surgeonsat the onset of treatment. £ -
PET INSURANCE. We strongly recommend that you insure your pet. An annual premium will ensure that most of your veterinary fees are covered, this is especialy important should your pet need to be referred to a specialist centre.

Due to the recent FSA ruling we are no longer allowed to recomend policies or policy types. We do keep a selection of Pet Insurance leaflets at our surgeries and recomend that when comparing the policies you do pay attention to the "small print" so that you compare "like for like".

£ -
PAYMENT METHODS. We accept VISA, MASTERCARD, and SWITCH as well as cheques. £ -
ESTIMATES. We will always provide you with an estimate before any surgical procedure and also an itemised invoice for each attendance. £ -
OUR POLICY. We believe that our clients value a high degree of care for their pets. Our aim is to provide this degree of care with the minimum of risk, especialy during surgical procedures. We therefore make no attempt to be the lowest priced Practice in the area, but charge what is necessary to provide a reasonable level of care. We believe that we give good value for our fees.
We are always willing to discuss our fees and our level of care with our clients or potential clients, we will provide you with as accurate estimate as possible, and we are very willing to show "behind the scenes" at our practice.

Remember that St Anne's, unlike most "similar" Practices, has a nurse on duty on the premises 24 hours a day for the monitoring of inpatients.

Pet Passport Taking your pet to Europe? you will need it to be microchipped, have a rabies vaccination course, a blood test, and a passport.

If you are intending to go to Europe and return, you need to start this process about 8 months before you wish to return to the U.K.
Six months must elapse after the date of the blood test before your pet can re-enter the UK.
Please contact the surgery for any advice on Pet Passports.
