Mo miraculously survives being hit by a train 🚂💥❤️
When Mo was rushed to us after being dragged under a train, his outlook appeared grim. He had sustained severe injuries, including burns over 30% of his body and limb loss.
Although survival was uncertain, Mo's spirit was strong and his family refused to give up on him
Incredibly, Mo beat the odds and then some! 🙌
After two major surgeries and dedicated care in our ICU, we are overjoyed to share that he has made an incredible recovery and is already adapting beautifully to life on three legs 🥹
A massive thank you to our Specialist Surgery and Critical Care teams who worked seamlessly together to ensure Mo got every ounce of care he needed 24/7
And a special thank you to Mo's family for trusting us with his life 🙏❤️

Congratulations to Dr. Rozalia Rekaris on an outstanding article in the June edition of Veterinary Ireland Journal on tremorgenic mycotoxins 👏
Roza was inspired to write this article following her involvement in saving the family of 4 dogs that presented to our emergency room earlier this year with life-threatening illness following suspected intoxication
This is what an internship is about - learning directly with Specialists and then taking time to reflect, research and share information with colleagues 🙌
Well done Roza! We are very proud of your achievement 👏

We are so pleased to introduce Dr. Olivia Walesby, European Specialist in Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care 🙌
Olivia is a proud Scot, and after graduating from the University of Glasgow she gained a wealth of experience in first opinion and emergency practice before embarking on the long path to specialisation
Olivia completed her residency at the University of Edinburgh, continuing there as a Specialist before joining our Critical Care Team in Summerhill earlier his year
Olivia has specific interests in sepsis, coagulation disorders, point of care ultrasound and improving CPR survival rates
As well as being an outstanding clinician, most importantly Olivia shares all of our core values and is an all-round genuinely lovely person with unwavering dedication, compassion and care for each and every one of her patients, many of who are seriously ill or injured
We believe all pets should be able to access Specialist-led care care if and when they need it 24/7/365
Watch this space for more exciting developments from our ECC Service 🙌

Did you know that not every small animal referral hospital offers Specialist care on nights and weekends?
Every member of our Specialty team shares our philosophy that pets should be able to access the most advanced care if and when they need it, whether it's the middle of a weekday or midnight on Saturday
Like anyone who participates in an 'on call' roster we understand we may not be able to commit to events and often miss family occasions and celebrations, but we feel a strong ethical obligation to you and to them
We would want the very same for our family in their hour of need
This commitment literally saved Gucci's life this past weekend 🙏
Gucci couldn't breathe after being hit by a car and was diagnosed at his vet with diaphragmatic hernia, a condition where his abdominal organs had ruptured into his chest, crushing his lungs
Gucci was stabilized by our on-site emergency team late Friday night 🌙
At emergency surgery on Saturday morning, extensive damage to his internal organs was repaired using the advanced skills of our Specialist surgeons and our Critical Care team
Following a tough Saturday overnight of continuous intensive care, including blood transfusion, Gucci began to make a rapid recovery and was well enough to be reunited with his family on Tuesday 🙌
Patients like Gucci are an excellent reminder of just how the commitment of their family and our team can make a difference, in his case literally between life and death
Thank you to every out-of-hours and on-call healthcare worker who commits to being available and willing to help patients when they need it most 🙏🚨
