The referral centre recently extended its floor space at its base in Cheshire to support a major expansion of the services being offered, which include orthopaedic, soft tissue and spinal surgery and internal medicine; with specialist support in anaesthesia and pain management, a diabetes clinic, intensive care, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, neurology (medical and surgical) and oncology.
Liz Cousins, hospital manager at Northwest Veterinary Specialists, said: "The success of NWVS is down to the dedication of our highly skilled clinical, nursing and support teams.
"Our clinicians are well respected specialists in their chosen disciplines and it’s fantastic to be able to offer new services to pets and first opinion vets.
"The hospital is home to 88 colleagues and the change of name now reflects the growth and dedication by everyone here at Northwest Veterinary Specialists since opening in 2002."
Northwest Veterinary Specialists provides specialist veterinary services to veterinary practices in north west England and north and mid Wales.
Liz added: "At Northwest Veterinary Specialists we treat pets from as far apart as Carlisle, North Yorkshire and Staffordshire.
"The facilities are state-of-the-art, demonstrating a quality of service both for our clinicians and our clients, but most importantly the pets that we treat."
