Internal Medicine for pets
Amanda Paul is our head of Internal Medicine supported by a team of internationally recognised vets offering specialist level investigations and treatments for the full range of disorders including those of the gastrointestinal, hepatic, pancreatic, respiratory, renal, urinary, endocrine, and haemolymphatic systems.
Out-of-hours service and emergency referrals
There is always a medicine clinician on duty to manage in-patients and provide support for on-going cases. The duty clinician is also available for advice to vets and to see emergency referrals. Urgent advice requests are returned by the first available clinician. We always try and accommodate daytime and out-of-hours emergencies.
Communication
Communication is a key element in managing our cases. Owners of hospitalised pets will usually be updated twice daily. We endeavour to get an interim or discharge report to the referring vet as soon after the pet has been discharged as possible. Referring vets should always feel that they can telephone for updates on cases if necessary.
Acute Kidney Injury (CRGV/Alabama Rot)
Our medicine team have been heavily involved in investigating and managing cases of CRGV/ Alabama Rot that are widely reported in the media. More information can be found on our dedicated website. https://www.alabama-rot.co.uk/
