Congratulations to our radiologist, Dr Ana García-Fernández, who recently attended the International Veterinary Radiology Association (IVRA) Congress in Fukuoka, Japan to present her case study on "Multimodal Diagnostic Imaging Findings of Feline Hypertrophic Muscular Dystrophy" 🐱

She also co-presented the poster "Radiographic and ultrasonographic identification of an intravascular needle in the linguofacial vein of a dog", with our previous Rotating Intern and current Village Vet Hampstead colleague, Dr José Gómez-Silvestre; also co-authored with Soft Tissue Surgeon, Dr Janet Kovak McClaran.

We're incredibly proud to see the achievements of our team, past and present, recognised internationally. Well done to you all 🥳

Dr Íñigo Sanz-Gonzalez joined London Vet Specialists earlier this year as our cardiologist 🫀 He works closely with our cardiology-focused RVN, Niki to provide exceptional care and support for both patients and their families.

After qualifying from the Complutense University of Madrid in 2012, Íñigo moved to the UK to undertake advanced training, including a Master's Degree in Cardiac Biomarkers, a rotating internship and a cardiology residency at the Universities of Glasgow and Edinburgh. He became a European Specialist in Veterinary Cardiology in 2023.

Íñigo's main interests include cyanotic congenital heart disease, cardiac pacing and arrhythmias in small animals.

We're incredibly fortunate to have Íñigo's expertise and compassion at LVS, where he is a much valued member of our team 🫶

Not our everyday patient! 🐰

Babe is a nearly 5-year-old Mini Lop rabbit that has dabbled in some modeling in the past! She presented to our ophthalmology service last year with a chronic, non-healing corneal ulcer in the right eye, alongside a history of corneal disease in both eyes. She underwent a left conjunctival pedicle graft surgery at LVS with Dr. Vim Kumaratunga at that time, which successfully resolved the left corneal ulceration that she had been suffering with for nearly two years. Her left eye has remained very comfortable and free of painful corneal ulceration since then.

At one of Babe's most recent visits, we performed a diamond burr debridement followed by placement of an amniotic membrane-loaded bandage contact lens, to support healing of the right cornea that was causing discomfort this time. We’re hopeful this latest treatment will support Babe's ongoing ocular concerns and restore her everyday comfort 💙

Rijo is a gorgeous 1-year-and-3-month-old boy who is a familiar face in our Oncology Department, where he receives treatment for his gastrointestinal lymphoma 🧡

Despite his regular visits, Rijo remains an absolute superstar. Armed with his favourite treats; Lick-e-Lix and dried fish cubes, he's often so focused on snack time that he completely forgets we're placing an IV catheter or taking blood samples! 😸🐟

His calm, trusting nature and love of treats make him a dream patient, and he never fails to put a smile on the faces of our team. We're always delighted to see Rijo, and we're cheering him on every step of his treatment journey ⭐

⭐Meet Our Patient ⭐

Chulbul is a very smiley Goldendoodle that first came to see our Oncology team 3 months ago for post-surgical staging of a mast cell tumour. Following further investigations, he underwent a subsequent surgery at LVS to remove an affected lymph node before starting a course of vinblastine chemotherapy in June. We're delighted to share that Chulbul is now halfway through his treatment protocol, having completed 4 of his planned 8 chemotherapy treatments 🥳

He is a very clever boy who loves his treats, and continues to take everything in his stride. We look forward to supporting him and his caregivers through the remainder of his treatment journey 💜

🐾 Team Recognition Spotlight 🐾

We are incredibly proud to share some wonderful feedback received for Dr Mary Trehy, whose dedication, expertise and compassion have made a profound difference to one of our patients and their family.

Winnie, a dog battling an exceptionally severe and complex case of IBD, faced numerous complications and setbacks during his recovery. Throughout an incredibly challenging journey, Mary provided not only outstanding clinical care, identifying critical diagnoses that proved key to Winnie’s treatment, but also unwavering support, reassurance and guidance for his family.

His family described Mary as a “true superstar”, praising her professionalism, attentiveness, communication and kindness. They shared that no question was too small, no concern was dismissed and that her positive attitude helped them navigate one of the most stressful periods they have experienced.

At London Vet Specialists, we are fortunate to work alongside colleagues who embody our commitment to exceptional patient care and client support every day. Thank you, Mary, for making such a meaningful difference to Winnie and his family 💙 Please join us in congratulating Mary on this well-deserved recognition! 👏
