Topic: The Exotic Animal Vets

RCVS Recognised Specialist in Zoo and Wildlife Medicine Molly Varga Smith has opened The Exotic Animal Vets, the first Specialist-led exotics practice in the North of England, in Urmston, Manchester.

The practice will offer 24/7 care with the same team managing both daytime and out-of-hours emergencies to offer continuity and familiarity for clients and their pets.

Facilities at the practice include heated hospital cages for small mammals such as rabbits and rodents, custom-built vivaria with species-appropriate UV lighting tailored to different reptile requirements and advanced diagnostic and surgical equipment specifically designed for exotic animal care.

Molly said: "We know that exotic pets require highly specialised care and our mission is to provide that expertise with compassion.

"Our entire team is trained and experienced in handling, treating, and advising on a diverse range of exotic species.

"We are committed to providing the highest standard of care for every animal that comes through our doors.”

The practice is now open for new client registrations.
