Puppy Heart Murmur Clinic.
If you find a heart murmur during a routine puppy check you might feel it appropriate to refer your patient to our Cardiology service for specialist assessment. This can give the owners peace of mind that there isn't a longer term problem.
The cost of the clinic is £275 and the assessment and scan will be undertaken by a board certified Cardiologist.
