Veterinary Consultations

Consultations are provided through the morning, afternoon and early evening from Monday-Friday, and during Saturday mornings. Consultations last for 15 minutes and are on an appointment basis only (please telephone the practice to book a time).

Our consulting times are as follows:

  • Monday to Friday:
    9am – 12pm
    2pm – 3.45pm
    4.30pm – 5.30pm
  • Saturday:
    9am – 11.30am

Please be aware that due to the busy nature of our practice, and realising that emergencies do occur, sometimes there may be a slight waiting time for your appointment. We try to give everyone the time they need and endeavour to keep any delays as infrequent and as short as possible.

Please try to be on time for your consultation and please contact the surgery if, for any reason, you are unable to attend. Thank you.

Operating Theatre

At Market Hall Vets we have a sterile operating theatre where we carry out surgical procedures. This can range from elective neutering procedures to more specialised orthopedic or soft tissue procedures.

We have a specialised operating table, surgical lighting and anaesthetic trolleys supplying the necessary anaesthetic gases for general anaesthesia. For patients which are undergoing general anaesthesia we have a modern, very safe anaesthetic circuit and equipment to monitor their heart and pulse function.

Hospitalisation Facilities

Sometimes your pet may need to be hospitalised whilst they are ill or following surgery. At Market Hall Vets we have separate dog and cat wards, aiming to make your pets stay with us as stress-free as possible. We have a dedicated team of nurses and animal care assistants who work to keep your pet comfortable and care for their special requirements.
