This 24/7 facility is equipped to the teeth to provide the best emergency care:

Lab: Procyte, Catalyst Dx, EPOC, Coags, and Transfusion Medicine.

Imaging: Digital X-ray, Advanced Ultrasound with Doppler, and visiting CT.

Scopes: Flexible video gastroscope, bronchoscope, and rigid scopes.

Surgical Tech: Gen11 vessel sealing, Valleylab mono/bipolar, and Ligaclips.

You are never truly alone! Youll work alongside a dedicated OOH RVN and OOH VCA.

Reception support until 10pm.

Additional Twilight RVN support until midnight to help with the evening rush.
