New Web Site

As you see we have had a full Web site redesign by Thirstdesign.  We hope you find it interesting and informative.

Please let us have any feedback on the topics covered.

Emergency Cover

We hope most emergencies will be covered by our extended opening hours and our Sunday and Bank Holiday clinics, however after 9pm Mon-Sat and after 5pm Sundays our Ansafone message will redirect you to the local VETS NOW emergency clinics.

They are staffed by permanent Vets and Nurses with training and experience in providing Emergency Care and are based in well equipped premises. We will continue to provide full 24 hr nursing care to all inpatients of the Hospital. Our consulting and reception hours remain the same except additionally reception will be now open on Sundays 11am to 1pm when we also have a vet on duty.

Emergency cover will be provided by our Vets at The Barn from Monday-Saturday 8am-9pm, Sundays 10am to 5pm and by Vets Now at all other times. Always first call 01256 329522 24hrs to be directed to the on duty Emergency Service. 

Please note the telephone numbers of the Emergency VETS NOW centre most accessible to you. (These will be repeated on our Ansaphone)

VETS NOW Winchester 0845 2234492

VETS NOW Farnham 01252 737555  

VETS NOW Reading 0845 2234435

If you are directed to a VETS NOW practice then they will advise you, after the emergency treatment, when you are to return your pet to us for further care or investigation. Please note that we do recommend full Pet Insurance which can provide cover in emergencies.

I would personally like to reassure all clients that we will continue to provide the best possible veterinary care for your pet and continue to meet the high standards demanded by The Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons in being the Only Tier 3 Veterinary Hospital in the Basingstoke area.

Acupuncture

The Barn is now able to offer treatment with acupuncture. Maria Mighall and Shawn Holm have completed a course of study and acquired practical experience in this technique.

Acupuncture is especially helpful for chronic pain such as hip arthritis or back pain. Please contact Maria or Shawn at the hospital to see if your pet could benefit.

Puppy development programme

Our Puppy Development Programme has been running now for 10 Years and has been a great success. Its great fun and the dogs we see that have been through the programme are more confident and happier patients when they come back to visit the Vet!

Jessica Tattersall a veterinary nurse, with other members of the Barn Animal Hospital will cover such aspects as training and health care and give information on the facilities at The Barn including a Practice Tour.
