We hope Martha feels better soon!

👋 Meet Martha, a lovely crossbreed who was rescued by her caring guardian.

Martha is a 6-year-old female, and she's been feeling a bit down lately since she recently lost her brother, Simon 😔

Martha is really missing her brother, but she's fortunate to have such a loving and kind caregiver who even sits on the floor with her during dinner to keep her company, as she hasn't been eating well.

They recently visited Dawn, our amazing senior nurse and Martha got plenty of cuddles and delicious liver treats during the visit! Dawn was incredibly kind and provided Martha with the tender, loving care she needed to feel like herself again 🥰

It's heartwarming to see Martha receiving such love and support during this challenging time, and we hope to see her up and about soon 💚

Even though Veterinary Nurse Awareness Month has ended, the amazing contributions of our veterinary nurses remain everlasting!

From providing comfort and care to our furry friends, assisting in surgeries, and educating pet parents, veterinary nurses are truly the unsung heroes of the animal healthcare world 🐶🐱💚

A huge thank you to all the veterinary nurses who dedicate their lives to ensuring our pets' health and happiness. Your compassion, skill, and dedication do not go unnoticed 👏💖

👏👏👏

In honour of Veterinary Nursing Awareness Month , we want to introduce (some) of our dedicated nurses and student nurses 😎

These amazing individuals are key in keeping the practice running smoothly, managing administrative tasks, creating care plans, refining their skills...and more! 🐾

Veterinary nurses undergo extensive training for 2.5 to 3 years and perform a range of essential tasks such as assisting with anesthesia, placing IV lines, grooming, handling emergency and critical care alongside the vets, and aiding with insurance and other complex administrative duties 💉

We truly appreciate our nurses as we couldn't function without them — thank you for all your hard work and dedication Kelly, Natalia, Rachel, Lily and Nicole 💙

Behind every wagging tail and purring friend, there is a team of dedicated vet nurses making miracles happen! 🐾 As we continue to celebrate Veterinary Nurse Awareness Month, we’re putting the spotlight on our Hospital Nurses 🏥

Well deserved Robert! 🏆

Congratulations to our very own Nursing Assistant Robert for winning a well-deserved Vet Partner's Nettie Award 🏆

Robert earned this award for his exceptional effort in reuniting a woman in Scotland with her dog, which had been stolen two years ago. A compassionate member of the public found the dog wandering and brought him to the branch, leading to the heartwarming reunion 😟

Excellent work Robert, we're very proud of you 👏

Excellent work team Goddard Vet Group Caterham 👏👏👏

🦊❤️ We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Goddard Vet Group for their exceptional care and support in aiding 'Berry' 🌿🍓.

Discovered collapsed outside her den by gardeners, she was swiftly picked up by one of our rescuers who recognised her frailty and rushed her to the local vet, Goddard Vet Group. They sprang into action, swiftly warming her up, administering glucose concentrate, and maintaining a close watch over her condition. Thanks to their unwavering dedication, Berry regained strength and was soon deemed fit to journey to our hospital.

Just look at her now – bright, alert, with a hearty appetite, enjoying the company of two foster siblings, and brimming with promise for a radiant future! 🌟🙏

We're so pleased Simon is doing better 💪

Meet our superstar patient Simon ⭐️

Simon recently spent a week with us at the hospital after presenting with weakness, wobbly on his legs and being fussy with food. Simon has low thyroid hormones and is diabetic so when he became fussy with food we were concerned 😞

Simon was admitted for investigations including blood tests and imaging, these revealed that Simon had anaemia (low red blood cells) at 25% normal for a dog is 35-55%. Our imaging and other investigations led us to diagnose Simon with Immune Mediated Haemolytic Anaemia or IMHA. This is a condition where the body starts to break down its own healthy red blood cells 🚨

Preparing for the worst we blood typed Simon and ordered a bag of blood to be delivered from the Pet Blood Bank. Over the next few days, Simon's red blood cells dropped to 14%! Our hospital team began giving Simon a blood transfusion, which included very careful monitoring in case he reacted badly 🩸

Thankfully, Simon did not have any complications through the transfusion and began to perk up. After a few more days Simons's red blood cells remained stable at around 20%, he was brighter, wanting to eat and enjoying a fuss 😇

Simon was trialed at home and has come on leaps and bounds! We are pleased to say that he is stable and back to his cheeky self. He continues to be a staff favourite especially among our nursing team 🐶

Excellent work team 💪

Good advice team 😎

It was a pleasure to see 5-month-old Ada pop in for a quick weight check and spend some time with the team, isn't she a beauty? 😍

It's a good idea to have your young pet pop in to say hello from time to time, so they can get used to coming to the vet, it doesn't need to be a scary experience! 😎
