Our Team Talks About the Fire which Affected Southfields in April
As many of you may know, in April this year, a fire in an adjacent building affected Southfields, leading us to temporarily close for essential repairs. We are deeply grateful for your patience and support during this challenging time.
We are thrilled to announce that we are now fully reopened and dedicated to providing the highest standards of veterinary care once again. 💙
In this video, our team members share their personal stories and reflections from the event in April.
Please be aware that some viewers might find the content distressing.

Bella at Southfields
#MeetOurPatient
💪 We're all inspired by the strength of young Italian Greyhound pup Bella, who can walk again after we created a custom-made titanium plate to cover part of her skull.
Two-month-old Bella was found to have a severe neurological condition after an unknown accident had left her with a skull fracture.
Her best chance of survival was an emergency operation to decompress the area, remove bone fragments and the blood build-up, and then cover the missing part of her skull with a titanium plate.
