The surgeons at Nantwich Veterinary Hospital have over fifty years' combined experience in treating orthopaedic (bones and joints) and spinal conditions in cats and dogs. The practice has become internationally renowned and we continue to develop ground breaking investigations and treatments for our patients.

  • Internal and external fixation of fractures

  • PennHip and BVA scoring systems to assess hip dysplasia
  • Spinal surgery including disc removal and spinal fusion
  • Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to investigate problems in the spine, brain and certain joints
