Veterinary professionals are being invited to visit a £16 million state-of-the-art animal hospital in Essex.
Linnaeus-owned Southfields Veterinary Specialists will be throwing open the doors of its purpose-built premises at Cranes Point, Basildon, on Saturday September 2.
Southfields promises an informative and entertaining day out including a tour of the hospital and a host of activities and demonstrations from clinicians.
Southfields operations manager Sarah Stam said: “We are inviting our fellow veterinary professionals to join us for a behind-the-scenes look at our hospital.
“We’re proud of our world class facilities and are happy to invite colleagues from fellow referral centres and primary care vets in the area to come and see how we deliver excellence in veterinary care.
“There will be tours of our multi-disciplinary hospital, demonstrations from our team and lots of fun for everyone – not just the grown-ups.
“We’re hoping people bring their families too as we’re planning lots of fun activities, including a bandaging station where children can bring any injured cuddly toys.
“We will also be offering plenty of opportunities to learn more about how we treat our seriously injured and seriously ill pet patients here at Southfields.”
Southfields, which moved into its state-of-the-art £16 million Basildon hospital last summer, offers specialist services such as anaesthesia and analgesia, cardiology, dentistry, dermatology, diagnostic imaging, exotics, internal medicine, neurology, oncology, ophthalmology, orthopaedics, radiation and soft tissue surgery.
The event starts at 10am on September 2.
