Steaming Ahead in Veterinary Medicine

As far as medical facilities go, it doesn’t get much better than this. 12 world class specialists, six operating theatres with positive pressure ventilation, an intensive care facility, 13 consulting rooms, airconditioned

quarters for 100 patients, isolation facilities, treatment rooms, incubators, oxygen therapy chambers, high specification monitoring equipment, a decontamination unit, and the best diagnostic imaging department in its field in the UK.

And if the intended patients were humans, they would probably feel immensely comforted by the comprehensive array of up-to-date equipment, asepsis techniques and dedicated experts ready to care for them. As it is, the

small animals that make up the patient list of Willows Veterinary Centre and Referral Service in Solihull, West Midlands, probably don’t appreciate quite what an extraordinary place is taking care of them.
