Greyfriars
is based in countryside just outside Guildford, Surrey,
and is a centre of excellence in canine and feline rehabilitation.
Greyfriars provides a range of services including physiotherapy,
functional rehabilitation, hydrotherapy,
acupuncture,
and short or long term inpatient
care for dogs and cats. Our qualified and experienced
team
is dedicated to the welfare of animals.
We liaise closely with referring veterinary surgeons and
physiotherapists, so that treatment programs can be tailored
to suit each dog or cats' specific needs and believe in
supporting both our patients and their owners. We understand
how stressful and upsetting it can be to have an injured
or disabled dog or cat and will do everything we can to
assist you.
Greyfriars
opened in 2001 and back then we were considered pioneering
in our approach to hydrotherapy and rehabilitation. Now,
thanks to increasing medical interest, studies and research,
the veterinary profession is more aware of the benefits
of early rehabilitation and preventative or management programs.
We run training
courses for veterinary and hydrotherapy professionals
- helping to raise standards in this exciting and developing
field.
Greyfriars has regularly featured in television programs,
professional journals, magazine and newpaper articles -

and media section for more information.
Greyfriars is a member of the Canine Hydrotherapy Association.

Members of the Association comply with training, safety
and patient care standards set by the CHA.
