Pets in Kent now have one of the UK’s most experienced Veterinary Neurologists on their doorstep, following the opening of South East Vet Referrals on Pembroke Road in Sevenoaks.
South East Vet Referrals is headed up by an internationally renowned vet, Dr Rodolfo Cappello, who is a specialist neurologist and diploma-holder, with over 25 years’ experience. He is supported by registered veterinary nurse, Katie Tanner.
Dr Cappello said: “We are the only independent specialist veterinary specialist in the area with the equipment and experience to diagnose and manage neurological issues in pets. With a custom-built veterinary hospital and the expertise to help vets get the best results for their patients, we will provide the next level of affordable, specialist care for owners and their pets with the transparency that our independent status offers.”
Dr Cappello has dedicated his career to advancing the field of veterinary neurology, developing advanced techniques in imaging, surgery and treatments, whilst working and studying around the world.
Pets suffering from symptoms including seizures, pain, difficulty walking and problems with balance and orientation can be referred for neurological testing, which diagnoses and helps manage issues with the central nervous system including brain and spinal cord injuries. Any peripheral nervous system problems and neuromuscular diseases outside the spinal cord area can also be identified and treated.
Dr Cappello added: “I’m motivated by providing the very best service at accessible prices. With a focus on communication and compassion – we will always work with first opinion vets to put the best interests of their clients’ pets first. I’m really excited to bring a broad spectrum of neurology services to the South East. From routine spinal procedures to complex interventions for brain neoplasia, inflammation, and degenerative diseases, I view each case as a unique challenge and am committed to providing tailored, high-quality care for each patient.”
