Small Animal

We combine high standards of companion animal clinical veterinary practice 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 Veterinary Surgery in Carlisle.

All of our Vets have areas of special interest which are pursued through professional courses and post-graduate qualifications. Gary Lewin holds Certificates in Veterinary Ophthalmology and Small Animal Surgery and accepts referrals from all over the UK.   Anne Abbs has a special interest in exotic species, especially birds.
