Recovery Tips for Your Pet
After any surgery your pet needs time and rest to heal properly. We provide detailed guidance on managing pain, wound care, limiting physical activity, and ensuring that your pet stays comfortable during their recovery process.
It is essential to follow our instructions carefully, as this will help promote healing and reduce the risk of complications.
In addition to managing pain and restricting movement we also work with you to schedule follow-up visits to monitor your pet's progress and make any necessary adjustments to their recovery plan. By staying on top of these steps you can ensure your pet has a smooth and successful recovery.
During recovery if you need veterinary advice/have any questions outside of our opening hours you can use the VidiVet app, where you can chat with a qualified vet 24/7. It is a great way to get quick guidance when you are unsure or need help right away.
