CRGV updateUnfortunately, we have to confirm a further case of cutaneous and renal glomerular vasculopathy (often termed CRGV and sometimes known as Alabama Rot). The case was from Mullion (Cornwall). This brings the total number of confirmed cases to 189 since 2012, with 14 in 2019. Hopefully we will see no further cases this year as we move out of the time period in which dogs are generally affected.

When a collapsed Jet was finally discovered, the pellet holes were infested with thousands of fly eggs. Laser-assisted turbinectomy improves the outcome of BOAS surgeryThe Soft Tissue Surgery service at Anderson Moores is one of only a few centres in the world to offer laser-assisted turbinectomy (LATE). The procedure was pioneered by the University of Leipzig and the University of Cambridge. It is performed under endoscopic guidance using a diode laser fibre.Reminder - Heart Clinic launchedWe are now providing a new affordable cardiac screening service designed to offer peace of mind when a murmur is found. Dogs and cats under 6 months of age are eligible. The animal must be asymptomatic at the time of referral. Orthopaedics | Cardiology | Neurology | Dermatology | Advanced Imaging |
