Facilities
Facilities at ChesterGates are of the highest standard and allow our clinicians to provide the very best in diagnostic, treatment and hospitalisation capabilities, ensuring your pet has gold standard care.
Overview
Our advanced imaging centre includes a high-field MRI which provides very detailed images of the brain and spinal cord. Our CT scanner rapidly scans the head, chest, abdomen or skeleton providing our clinicians with excellent diagnostic accuracy. In addition, we have excellent ultrasound, fluoroscopy, endoscopy, interventional radiology and keyhole surgery facilities. Our services have dedicated areas, for example, cardiology has its own room where patients can be kenneled in quiet conditions and the room can be darkened for ultrasound procedures.
We also have three large operating theatres and six consulting rooms. Our wards are spacious, with separate cat and dog areas and built to minimise the stress experienced by patients
