Providing Pro Active Veterinary Care For Your Pet
SAFE FOR YOU, SAFE FOR US...!
Castle Veterinary Centre continues to offer veterinary advice & care for pets within an environment that is safe for clients, their animals & our staff. Throughout the Coronavirus pandemic we have been very grateful to the vast majority of clients who have complied with protocols designed to keep both them & our staff safe & so has enabled us to continue to look after the health & welfare of our patients.
We are now welcoming clients back into consulting rooms, however, after consultation with members of the Society of Practising Veterinary Surgeons (SPVS), we will continue to ask clients to wear masks / face coverings & observe social distancing guidelines whilst on the premises - within the Terms & Conditions of our services.
We understand that some people are medically exempt from wearing masks, & so will happily conduct consultations outside, offering the canopy of door 63 for shelter & privacy if required.
For those of us able to protect ourselves & each other by mask wearing, please ensure that the mask is worn correctly over the mouth & nose at all times. If you do not have a mask, we will provide one free of charge. These should be worn with the coloured side outermost & have an inbuilt metal clip which should be gently moulded to the bridge of the nose to help keep it in place. Our policies will be reviewed on a regular basis according to the risks & levels of Covid-19 infection within the community.
Booking an appointment / consultation with us will confirm your consent & acceptance of Castle Veterinary Centre's Terms & Conditions & GDPR (click for each document)
Our History
There has been a veterinary practice at the site of Castle Veterinary Centre for well over 60 years. Mr Smythe who established it, and Miss Townley who succeeded him, specialised in treating companion animals at a time when most veterinary surgeons treated pets very much as a sideline to their farm work. In the 1960's Miss Townley took over the practice and continued to develop and improve the standard of companion animal care in the city.
Current owners, Veterinary Surgeons (and husband and wife) Ewan & Brin McNeill, bought the practice outright in 1990 and started on a refurbishment and development programme. At the same time investment was made in new diagnostic and surgical equipment, which allows us to offer a high standard of treatment and after-care to all pets.
We have an enthusiastic and caring team ready to respond to the growing needs of our clients and their pets.
