Fitzpatrick Referrals

I’ve been through more surgeries than most dogs dream of biscuits, and each time, the amazing team at Fitzpatrick Referrals have given me not only a second chance, but also dignity, kindness, and a whole lot of love (and the occasional snack). From Professor Noël Fitzpatrick ,who somehow always found time to check on me, even late at night , to every nurse, physio and receptionist who treated me like I mattered, they’ve all been part of my journey. Even when things didn’t go perfectly, my mum and I always felt that I was in hands that cared as much about how I lived as how long I lived. That’s a rare kind of magic. Now, 16 weeks post-surgery, I’m back doing my physio and trying to remember how to use that leg properly. It’s a long road, but one filled with hope and that hope started at Fitzpatrick Referrals. If you’re a worried parent wondering whether there’s still light after heartbreak, I can tell you: there is. Sometimes it even comes with a wagging tail. 🐾💙 With love, Hermes and his deeply grateful mummy

Ended up at Fitzpatrick’s as an urgent referral for IVDD treatment for our 6 year old dachshund Reggie who underwent spinal surgery. Every aspect of the whole treatment journey has been 5*- from initial diagnosis to surgery, physio, hydrotherapy, reception team-every member of staff has been so lovely and professional and we were kept well informed at all times. I knew Reggie was in best hands and received the best treatment possible. We are now 7 weeks post surgery and he’s making a good progress. Still a way to go but I’m sure Reggie will make a full recovery. Thank you from the bottom of my heart :)
