Abdominal, thoracic and soft tissue procedures — planned and life-saving — in two operating theatres, following written protocols.
We manage every case individually — the scope, indications and course described above are indicative; the exact diagnostic and treatment plan is agreed during the consultation.
Planned removal of the testes under general anaesthesia with full monitoring. A same-day procedure — the dog goes home the same day with a pain management and check-up plan.
A short procedure to remove the testicles of a male cat, under general anaesthesia with monitoring. It reduces urine marking, roaming and fighting; the cat goes home the same day.
Removal of the ovaries and uterus under general anaesthesia with full monitoring. It prevents pyometra and reduces the risk of mammary tumours. A planned procedure, usually a day case.
Removal of the ovaries and uterus in a female cat under general anaesthesia. It ends heat cycles and prevents pyometra and unwanted litters. A day-case procedure with written aftercare instructions at discharge.
Surgical removal of mammary tumours with a margin, after staging (chest X-ray, abdominal ultrasound). The tumour is sent for histopathology, which determines the further plan.
Surgical delivery of puppies or kittens when natural birth is not progressing or is dangerous. An urgent procedure during opening hours — call before you come; we book planned caesareans after an ultrasound scan.
Planned suturing of the stomach to the abdominal wall in dogs of breeds predisposed to gastric torsion. A preventive procedure, often performed at the same time as neutering.
An immediately life-threatening condition: a bloated, hard abdomen and unproductive retching in a large dog. We stabilise the patient, decompress the stomach, operate and perform a gastropexy. Call before you come.
Surgical removal of the spleen for tumours, rupture or torsion of the organ. We perform it as a planned procedure after an ultrasound scan and chest X-ray, or urgently when there is bleeding into the abdominal cavity.
Surgical removal of a swallowed object from the stomach or intestines when it cannot be retrieved with an endoscope. X-ray and ultrasound diagnostics on site, hospitalisation after the procedure.
Opening the bladder and removing stones that will not dissolve with diet or that block the flow of urine. We send the stones for analysis so that we can choose how to prevent recurrence.
Purulent inflammation of the uterus in unspayed bitches and female cats — an urgent condition. We diagnose it with ultrasound and blood tests, operate to remove the uterus together with the ovaries, and treat the patient as an in-patient.
Surgical excision of lumps, sebaceous cysts, lipomas and suspicious lesions — after preliminary cytology, with an appropriate margin. We send every removed lesion for histopathology.
Closure of an opening in the abdominal wall or perineum through which organs protrude. Planned for small hernias, urgent when a trapped intestine or bladder is life-threatening.
Surgical widening of the nostrils and shortening of the soft palate in flat-faced breeds that snore, tire easily and tolerate heat poorly. The procedure is performed with extended anaesthetic supervision.
Cleaning, flushing and closure of bite wounds, cuts, lacerations and injuries after accidents. First an assessment of the whole patient (X-ray, ultrasound), then surgery — during opening hours, without a referral.
From surgery for an aural haematoma to complete removal of the ear canal in irreversible inflammation. The decision is preceded by video-otoscopy and an assessment of whether conservative treatment still makes sense.
Removal of a limb or tail when it cannot be saved or its function restored — because of a tumour, a severe injury or irreversible nerve damage. Dogs and cats adapt to life on three legs very well.

Each item has its own page: what it is, what it is used for and what it offers the animal.
Operating suiteTwo theatres with separate purposes: clean surgery and all other procedures. Each has a full anaesthesia station.
View
AnaesthesiologyAn inhalation anaesthesia machine with a ventilator and a vital signs monitor: ECG, saturation, capnography, blood pressure, temperature.
View
LaboratoryHaematology and biochemistry analysers, urinalysis, a microscope for cytology — critical values are available within minutes.
View
Medical infrastructureA permanent piped installation distributing medical oxygen from a central source to outlets in both operating theatres.
View
Operating suiteModern shadowless procedure and surgical lights in the consulting rooms and the operating suite — adjustable light intensity and colour temperature, with an arm that reaches the whole operating field.
View
AnaesthesiologyActive warming of the patient during the procedure and recovery — preventing hypothermia, the most common complication of anaesthesia.
View
ImagingA digital X-ray unit — the image is ready in a dozen or so seconds, with no film processing, and can be processed digitally and sent to the referring veterinarian.
View
ImagingAn ultrasound machine with probes for examining the abdomen, chest, heart (echocardiography) and superficial tissues.
View
Operating suitePrecise cutting and coagulation of blood vessels with high-frequency current — less bleeding and a shorter procedure.
View
HospitalisationA chamber with controlled temperature, humidity and oxygen supply for newborns, patients with hypothermia and patients in a serious condition.
View
HospitalisationSeparate stations for dogs and cats, infusion pumps, oxygen therapy, an observation chart with parameters at fixed intervals.
View
EndoscopyA flexible video endoscope for examining the digestive and respiratory tracts, and a set of instruments for taking biopsies and removing foreign bodies.
ViewFounder of the practice and its first-generation veterinarian. Now retired — his approach to standards and quality of care remains the foundation on which today's team is built.
She runs the operating theatre and supervises surgical protocols. She represents the second generation of the practice — and the first to take it to referral level. Radiology specialist. She is the formal head of the veterinary treatment facility and is responsible for the duties imposed by the Veterinary Chamber. Joanna Paterak looks after the day-to-day administration of the practice.
Soft-tissue surgery, neurology and internal medicine. He devotes every spare moment to deepening his knowledge and trying new approaches. He stands out for his perceptiveness and consistent development of his own skills, and in the team he is surrounded by knowledge, enthusiasm and passion.
Energy requirements fall by about 20–30%. If the portions stay the same, the dog will indeed put on weight. After the procedure we discuss adjusting the amount of food.
In most cats the marking stops within a few weeks. The longer the habit has been established, the greater the risk that some of the behaviour will remain — which is why we recommend the procedure before sexual maturity.
Spaying before the first heat gives the greatest protection against mammary tumours, but in large breeds spaying too early may affect skeletal development. We choose the timing according to the dog's breed and size.
No. Spaying before the first heat is safe and gives the best protection against mammary tumours.
Not always. The extent depends on the number and location of the tumours and on the lymphatic drainage.
Reception will assess your enquiry and book an appointment with the right veterinarian.
