Our First Client – Rascal Millman — Last update at 2:12 pm on February 28, 2011

Rascal MillmanPictured with Jennifer is our first client a cute little Jack Russel called Rascal Millman with his owners.  Rascal came in to start his vaccinations and to get wormed

We also micro-chipped him so if he was to wander off there would be a good chance he would find his way back.  We all look forward to seeing Rascal back in 2 weeks for his second vaccination.

The BIG move — Last update at 10:33 pm on February 25, 2011

All of the Totnes staff have been busy today with the help of Beacon Removals and our builders, Arque, to move everything from our old surgery to Station Road.  The x-ray machine was a bit tricky but team work prevailed and almost everything is in place ready for Monday.  Finishing touches and final positioning of furniture will occur over the weekend.  We are all really excited now and can’t wait to welcome you to the new surgery.
