New Lodge Veterinary Centre
I left to gain more experience and worked as a locum veterinary surgeon everywhere for North Yorkshire to Guernsey. I set up New Lodge Veterinary Centre in 2005, with the intention of providing an excellent standard of client and patient care. I enjoy most aspects of veterinary life and so do not have a particular special interest.

When I am not being a vet, I have several hobbies. I like gardening, reading, and riding my horse "Babe" but my most exciting hobby is motor racing. I race a 1967 Sunbeam Tiger called "Lilly". Our best result was a race win by a lap in the pouring rain. We race all across the UK in classic car racing series.
Services
We are happy and able to give general advice both in person and over the telephone, but may suggest that your pet may need a detailed consultation including physical examination with our vet to try to help resolve any problems they may have. Registered Clients whose pets have been examined by us in the last year may collect wormers, food, flea and tick treatments, and other sundries without bringing in their pets.
We use an appointment system to try to ensure that our consultations run on time, keep waiting times to a minimum, and to help prioritize cases that need to be seen urgently. We can generally find a slot in our appointments to suit your needs. Our consultations are normally of15 minute's duration, longer than some other vets.
Routine elective surgeries, diagnostic radiographs, ultrasound examinations and dynamic blood tests are carried out between 10.30am and 3.00pm Monday to Friday. Obviously some pet operations are not routine and take place out of normal surgery hours. Patients are normally admitted by one of our nurses in the morning between 8.30 and 9.30am.
As responsible pet owners, we know you would like to ensure that your pet is vaccinated against preventable diseases. Both cats and dogs can catch diseases which may in the worst cases be fatal even with supportive therapy. The benefits of vaccination and its complementary health check far outweigh the potential costs and consequences of any disease that may be preventable.
We are able to prepare your pet for a Pet Passport including insertion of microchip, vaccinations, blood testing (if required), and worming treatment as required by the country of entry and then issue a Pet Passport. This is required, for entry to and return home from countries that are included in the Pet Passport Scheme.

Friendly, courteous and compassionate, they saw us quickly when our puppy needed its eye looking at. We were staying with friends so weren’t regulars but this was no trouble at all!

We have just had Dama spayed and once again the team at New Lodge have done a fantastic job with our munched loved dog! The one thing I love about dealing with New Lodge is that we are relaxed knowing that our pet is in the hands of a professional team who care about all the animals they look after

Zoe and her team are not just professional and highly skilled but also friendly and informative. They have cared for one of our dogs since puppyhood....she's now 15 and as well cared-for as ever. Highly recommended

My only regret is that I didn't go to New Lodge years ago. Exceptional in every respect, they truly care for every animal that walks through their door. We just had our pooch put to sleep; Zoe and Louise were quite simply wonderful. Barney had a dignified parting and was clearly loved by all on the team, thank you ❤

Wouldn't go anywhere else. Zoe has been fantastic and understanding during a very emotional and sad time.
