Cheap is always expensive!

This poor dog was brought in as an emergency on 7th of June. It had been castrated at the owners place in a horrible, unprofessional way (the whole procedure was performed wrongly by all standards). The dog was in a lot of pain, the wound was fully open and infected when it was brought to as 4 days after the said surgery. Our doctors decided best way to save it from dying was to perform a corrective surgery.

He is lucky we were able to fix it and currently he is recovering at the clinic. Most important - the dog is fine but it also cost the client more than double at the end. The client is happy and has learnt a lesson that cheap is expensive.

Use a registered veterinary surgeon who works at a clinic or is well known in your community.

P.S. One of the main anesthetic drugs might be terminated by the world pharmaceutical bodies, meaning it will be hardly accessible on the market. If successfully reclassified it won't be available at all.
Begs the question how will that affect you and your pet?
That means the only ethical and safe option is use of anesthetic gas for neutering and other surgeries. Most clinics in Nairobi have anesthetic machines, that means quacks coming to your house cannot sedate the animal properly. Just be keen and use a safe, clean solution!

Successful Pet Relocation to South Africa

Dear small five VET CLINIC - Team,

This is a thank you letter for all you did for Rory our dog who is very much part of our family. We are thankful we chose you to help with importing our dog to South Africa from Kenya. The service you gave us from when our dog was a puppy was outstanding and especially over the February-March months of 2017 where you completed all the necessary paper work and tests that enabled us to import our dog successfully into South Africa. Not only did you assist us with the paper work but you helped us with the booking of our flights, with the agent on the Kenyan and South African side for Rory. Our dog Rory only spent 5 days in quarantine and passed all his tests. We would recommend small five VET CLINIC to anyone who wants to export or import their animals in or out of Kenya.

 

Kind regards,
Robert, Catherine, Ezekiel and Rory Falconer

Surgeries

All surgeries carried out at our practice are handled with utmost care within minimum time possible. Our theater and all equipment within are sterile. This is to minimize arising complications.

When you book your surgical operation at the small five VET CLINIC, our surgeons will explain the whole procedure  to you, cost and complications, before you can sign the surgical consent form. We will give you a follow up call once operation has been completed successfully and another once your pet is fully recovered from anesthetic.

Please note that some procedures demand we board your pet for a number of days to monitor recovery progress as we attend to any arising complications.
