I'm hoping that all of you knowledgable people might be able to point me in the right direction.

I am looking for a vet that hip/elbow scores using sedation that any of you might be able to recommend.  I have only used GA previously and would like to use sedation for our young girl.

We are located in West Wales and I am prepared to travel for the right vet.

Thanks in advance.

The following list hasn't been updated for a while and doesn't cover the entire country but could be a good starting point:

I always use Ewan Bryson nr Whitchurch but don't know how far that is for you. Brilliant man.

Lol I just got excited with the Whitchurch person but then noticed it wasn't the same whitchurch as the one I was thinking of.

Is Eastleigh/Southampton too far for you ? (my geography isnt too great, im not sure where West Wales is ..... other than in Wales ;)  )

I used Ewan recently... Such a lovely man and nothing too much trouble.

Julian Slater at O Gorman Slater and Maine in Newbury.  Brilliant!

> Is Eastleigh/Southampton too far for you

Claire, lmao... ummm, if its roughly 4hrs from there to Cardiff, add a few more hours on..

I'm sure someone mentioned a place in Gloucestershire/Herefordshire before.

There must be someone in Wales who does scores under sedation.

>lmao... ummm, if its roughly 4hrs from there to Cardiff, add a few more hours on..

Well they did say willing to travel ;)  I think of Wales as just at the end of the M4 !!!!!!!

Thanks for the replies, we are about 1 hour from the end of the M4 on a good day.  I had been told of someone near Hereford who will do them under sedation, but can't remember who told me to ask for more details.  The Whitchurch one might be one to consider though.  Thanks again everyone.

I have used:  Arrowfield Vet Group, Butts Meadow, Hatton Gnds, Kington, Herefordshire HR5 3DD Tel. 01544 230567, and that is travelling from Bristol.

Thanks Brainless, this could be the one that I was after.

They are really good, have had my last two girls done there along with three of friends dogs at one sitting, actually once did a group of five sharing the petrol.
