Donaldson's Vets

Donaldson's Vets It is a Tier 2 RCVS accredited practice ensuring our facilities and staff training are up to modern standards. If this is an issue please get in touch.
(16)

The practice was established in 1985 by Chris and Eleanor Dale with the aim of providing high quality veterinary treatment for domestic pets within a personal and caring environment. This is a voluntary quality assurance scheme, involving a rigorous inspection of the practice carried out by a veterinary inspector appointed by the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons. We care deeply about our patie

nts, and are committed to ensuring they receive the treatment and attention we would expect our own pets to receive. We also offer a speedy and efficient referral service for colleagues dealing with problem skin cases. Facilities are available for the investigation and treatment of all types of skin disease including intradermal skin testing. A full written history, or a copy of the clinical notes, is required as are all relevant laboratory reports. Ideally treatment should be withdrawn at least 7 days before the first appointment. Referring veterinary surgeons are sent a prompt written report after each examination.

๐—ฆ๐—–๐—”๐—  ๐—ช๐—”๐—ฅ๐—ก๐—œ๐—ก๐—š: We have been made aware that someone is calling people claiming to be from Donaldsons Vets to say we have their lost pet and they need to pay a vet bill over the phone before they can collect their animal. This is a particularly cruel scam as the caller(s) are giving the owner the hope that their animal has been found, as well as trying to take their money.

Sadly we believe whoever is making these calls is researching social media platforms for lost pets and targeting the owners.

Please be cautious if you ever receive such a call - it is unlikely to be genuine. If you are concerned, hang up and call us back on OUR number so you know you are definitely talking to one of our team.

This is Shortbread,

He is a 5-year-old Labradoodle, who came in on Christmas Eve because he was lethargic and off his food. ๐Ÿฅฒ

He was diagnosed with immune-mediated haemolytic anaemia (IMHA) and thrombocytopenia (IMTP)

He had a blood transfusion from a staff dog on Christmas day and then had a further 2 blood transfusions with the blood from the pet blood bank in the following days.

He has been on a lot of medication and had regular appointments and checks at our veterinary hospital as we reduced his medication.

But he has finally been signed off today after nearly 7 months. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

Go Shortbread!! โค๐Ÿฅฐโค๏ธ

Beyond her professional life, Lisa finds joy in crocheting, tending to her numerous houseplants, and spending quality time with her own dog, Loki. ๐Ÿถ

Calling all un microchipped cats!! ๐Ÿฑ๐Ÿฑ๐Ÿฑ
We are running feline microchipping clinics at our Somerset Hospital throughout June.
It is now a legal requirement for all cats over 20 weeks to be microchipped, including all indoor cats, or you risk paying a hefty fine!
Cat collars and tags are susceptible to loss or removal, microchipping offers a permanent and reliable method of identifying your cat, significantly boosting the chances of being reunited with their owners. Additionally, it grants immediate access to owner details in case of an emergency requiring treatment for your pet.
***Once microchipped you must register your details into the microchipping database. Please speak to your vet for more information***
