Step-by-step
A guide to Nelson Vets - see how we care for your pet, from consultation, to hospitalisation, surgery and recovery.
Laparoscopic speys
Choose key hole surgery as the best option to neuter your female dog or puppy - less pain, short rest period post op.
Integrated medicine
Dr Kelly Phillips has a huge wealth of experience and offers an integrated approach to patient care.
Orthopaedic surgery
Orthopaedics consist of surgeries involving bones, joints and the surrounding soft tissue. At Nelson Vets we offer a range of orthopaedic surgeries.
Dentistry
Your pet's world revolves around its mouth. Dental disease is common among household pets and can lead to more serious health problems if left untreated.
Difficult decisions
We are there to support you through the difficult decisions around end of life care for your pet.
Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Surgery
We offer BOAS surgery, which helps improve breathing and airway restrictions in flat-faced breeds.
Endoscopy
Endoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that uses a flexible camera (endoscope) to examine internal structures such as the stomach, airways, lungs, ears, vulva, nasal passages, or colon.
Exotics
Many of our vets have extensive exotics experience and we see a range of exotic animals, including frogs, lizards, and birds, alongside more traditional pets like rabbits, rats, and guinea pigs.
