Clinic Overview

Brockwell Veterinary Surgery describes itself as an independent practice, established for over three decades. Based on the clinic’s own service list and recent client accounts, it appears set up for both routine care and more involved work, including in-house diagnostics and surgery.

Concrete examples owners mention include

  • Keyhole (laparoscopic) neutering with smooth recovery reported.
  • Dental surgery for cats, with detailed pre- and post-procedure feedback from the vet.
  • Blood tests used to spot an emergency, followed by help arranging transfer to an out-of-hours hospital for a blood transfusion.
  • End-of-life support, including clear explanations during euthanasia and sending paw prints in a card afterwards.
