Referral Clinician – Orthopaedic Surgeon

East Neuk Veterinary Clinic offers the highest standards in surgical care for dogs and cats, referred to us by other veterinary surgeons throughout Scotland for specialist treatment for their orthopaedic problems. This in turn provides us with a diverse orthopaedic caseload with an enviable mix of routine and fracture cases. We focus on offering affordable, high quality, evidenced based care for each and every one of our patients.

Situated in a beautiful, picturesque village in the East Neuk of Fife, a stone’s throw from St. Andrews and with easy access to Edinburgh and Glasgow alongside their associated International Airports; we offer the perfect balance between the beauty of Scotland’s breath taking countryside whilst remaining close to some of the worlds most vibrant and diverse cities.

We have a friendly and supportive team of 7 vets, 10 nurses and 5 front-of-house staff. Two of our surgeons are RCVS and European specialists in their field of Small Animal Surgery and we have a plethora of experienced Certificate Holders and Advanced Practitioners.

We have well-equipped, spacious operating theatres with Multiparameter Monitoring, DR X-Ray, plus a new Siemens CT scanner and ultrasound. We stock Arthrex and Synthes fracture plating and TPLO systems whilst the clinic also has CUE, Synacart and the Biometrix THR kits available.
