We offer
Our nurses all have pets of their own and are selected because of their genuine love for animals. They stay BY YOUR PET’S SIDE until the completion of the recovery process. They are in charge of maintaining your pet’s temperature, administering pain medications and monitoring all vital signs during your pet’s recovery at our vet hospital.
Our operating theatre is designed for surgeon comfort, and therefore optimal surgical outcomes.
Our state-of-the-art, sterile operating theatre is among the most spacious and is fully equipped to support our surgeons in their precise work and even has piped-in music for optimal comfort.
Every Southern Cross Veterinary Clinic patient goes home with a personalised plan to combat pain and inflammation after surgery. It is well recognised that pain hampers the healing process and so this is why our veterinarians tailor the medication plan to suit your pet.
Our animal hospital is equipped with modern facilities and technology to ensure the best possible outcome for your pet. We treat every animal as if they were our own, and we strive to make their visit as comfortable and stress-free as possible.
Our recovery room offers pets in intensive care or post-surgery monitoring the latest in patient comfort. We are cage-free and have beautiful glass and aluminium suites to accommodate pets feeling under the weather.
We’re committed to avoiding the main anaesthetic complication – hypothermia and have invested in technology such as Bair-Huggers and Nellcor WarmTouch systems (the same systems used in human paediatric wards) to shorten recovery times.
Our dedicated nurses use state-of-the art monitoring devices as well as gentle hands when recovering your pet. Our monitoring devices include capnography, pulse oximetry, non-invasive blood pressure, ECG and other advanced systems to make sure the recovery period is as smooth as possible.
If your pet is an important and much loved part of your family; if you demand only the highest standards and safest treatment; if you want them to be comfortable and constantly monitored during any procedure and you will only tolerate exceptional care for your loved one, then you will feel comfortable in knowing that every animal at Southern Cross Veterinary Clinic is treated with the best available care by a dedicated team of veterinary surgeons and exceptional nursing staff.
