A landmark new animal hospital in Bridlington has passed a milestone as all major structural steelwork is now complete.
The team at Aldgate Veterinary Practice are looking forward to a summer 2022 opening for the state-of-the-art facility, which will provide outstanding care to small animals from Bridlington and the surrounding areas.
It will replace the practice’s current surgery in Wellington Road, Bridlington, and is in addition to their surgery in St John’s Place, Driffield.
Lucy Butler, a vet and one of four directors, said: “It has been exciting seeing the project progress over recent months and we can really see the scale of the new building now the steelwork is complete.
“We are looking forward to moving ahead with the development and beginning the fit-out of the interior in the new year.
“This will be a truly outstanding facility for the area and we can’t wait to share it with our existing customers and newcomers to Aldgate Vets.”
The hospital will have five consulting rooms, separate dog and cat waiting areas, and a wealth of modern veterinary technology.
Core veterinary facilities in include a CT scanner, an ultrasound and endoscopy room, x-ray room, dental theatre and three surgical theatres, including one for orthopaedic work.
A hydrotherapy pool and treadmill will enable Aldgate Vets to significantly grow their rehabilitation and pain management services, which are becoming increasingly popular as alternatives to medication.
The hospital will also have a meeting room, staff room, directors’ office and 37 car parking spaces.
Accommodation for on-call staff will also mean vets and nurses be on site for inpatient care and emergencies 24/7.
