Clinical Interests
Areas of focus and expertise
Soft Tissue & General Surgery
Primary clinical focus encompassing both elective and complex surgical case management. All procedures are performed in Parkview’s dedicated surgical suite with full anaesthesia monitoring and a post-operative recovery area. Pre-surgical blood work is completed in-house to confirm your pet is safe for anaesthesia before any procedure begins.
View serviceInternal Medicine
A strong foundation in the medical management of gastrointestinal, respiratory, and urinary conditions. Parkview’s in-house laboratory returns blood work, urinalysis, and cytology results during the same visit, while digital X-ray and ultrasound provide immediate imaging — supporting a systematic diagnostic approach without external referrals.
View serviceDental Care
Oral health assessment, scaling, polishing, and dental procedures supported by Parkview’s dedicated dental X-ray unit. Dental radiographs reveal problems below the gum line — root abscesses, tooth resorption, and jaw bone loss — that are invisible during a standard oral exam, ensuring accurate diagnosis before treatment.
View serviceClinical Nutrition
Trained at the Royal Canin Veterinary Campus in France. Integrates nutritional management into surgical recovery, chronic disease management, and weight control programmes. Prescription veterinary diets from Royal Canin and Hill’s are available in the Parkview pet store for post-surgical recovery, kidney support, gastrointestinal conditions, and more.
