At Paragon the highest standards of companion animal clinical veterinary
practice are combined with a commitment to nursing and all-round patient
care.

Small animal services are provided by a team of 7 vets and 6 nurses at our centres - Carlisle House in Dalston, Townhead Farm in Newbiggin and Paragon Pet Health Centre in Carlisle.
All our vets have areas of special interest which are pursued through
professional courses and post-graduate qualifications. Gary Lewin holds
Certificates in Veterinary Opthalmology and Small Animal Surgery and
accepts referrals from all over the UK. Ann Noble is studying for a Certificate in Small
Animal Medicine.
