Take a look behind the scenes - post surgical laser treatment (PSLT) with Hannah, our physiotherapist.
PSLT uses class 4 laser light to stimulate and increase healing, whilst also acting as an anti-inflammatory, helping reduce post-operative pain. Benefits also include reduced scar tissue formation and better hair regrowth.
Treatment can be done either consciously or whilst your pet is still under general anaesthetic just before they wake from their procedure.
To find out more speak with your nurse, when you bring your pet for their operation, about laser therapy treatment.

Isis loves her acorn, it's her favourite.
She came for surgery but wanted to play before she was sedated.

A day in the life - Laparoscopic spay edition 🐾.
This is Lola when she came in for her Lap spay. This is sometimes known as a “key hole spay “ , which is a minimally invasive procedure. The procedure allows for the removal of ovaries through a small incision using a vessel sealer and cameras.
As the surgery is key hole the healing process is quicker, as is recovery and this leads to less post operative pain.
We are proud to be able to offer Lap Spay surgeries at Farnham Veterinary Hospital, and hope this gives you a good insight into what happens during the surgery.
Feel free to contact reception to find out more!

This is Lenny.
Lenny needed lots of cuddles and reassurance before his castrate operation thankfully our nurse Emma was on hand to give out all the strokes and love.

During international fun week it felt absolutely necessary to challenge the nurses and vets to a "buster collar" challenge!
Each of them had to connect the collar tabs and round the buster collar ready for application.
Who do you think won???
*This is Alicia and Gemma from Vale - the challenge was across all the branches*
👍 for nurses
❤️ for vets

World Physio day.
Hydrotherapy with our underwater treadmill is a fantastic, low impact, high intensity exercise suitable for a range of fitness levels and conditions, where land-based work is not suitable.
The buoyancy of the water reduces limb weight bearing and increases joint mobility, whilst the resistance of walking through water increases muscle strength and endurance.
Darby gets so excited to see Hannah and continues to use Hydrotherapy post bilateral TPLO surgery to maintain her fitness.
