PETS are complex creatures that deserve the same special care and attention as their human friends.
Contemporary pet care takes this approach by offering many of the same thorough treatments available to humans.
Leading the way is Forbes Street Vet Clinic, which has recently relocated to a new and larger purpose-built practice.
Owners Dr Lorraine Vella and Dr Bob Clippingdale said the new facilities would allow them to bring the best services to their clients.
''The end result is happier staff members, pets and owners,’’ Dr Vella said.
One of the interesting and valuable features of the new premises is the separate surgery and prep area and
cat and dog wards that promote the happiness of pets.
''The animals are much calmer with their own space,’’ Dr Vella said.
''Their mental health is very important to us.’’
There are also twice as many consultation rooms as before, which allows for easier access to vets.
Another fantastic feature is the extensive off-street parking.
Forbes Street Vet Clinic takes an innovative approach to pet care and extends it services beyond the
essentials.
Behavioura l consults allow clients to work with the vet to find long-term solutions.
''We treat behavioural issues like spraying cats and barking dogs,’’ Dr Vella said.
The clinic also offers ultrasound, radiography, internal medicine and stem cell therapy for arthritic patients.
Alternative therapies such as acupuncture, chiropractics and herbal medicine are also available.
