We strive to work to the highest standards, recognise the contribution of each member of the team and encourage and support special interests. There is a diverse caseload providing many opportunities for further development of the practice. We keep majority of procedures in-house, with access to a number of superb nearby hospitals for more complex cases.

Our team is currently 3 Vets, 6 RVNs, our physiotherapist and 6 Client Care Advisors. Jane, one of the practice owners at Longton holds a Cert AVP with an incredible talent and passion for Medicine.
