Rowe Referrals is a second opinion service for our own Vets and Veterinary Surgeons from all over the South West to refer unusual and complex conditions to us for further diagnosis and treatment.

Appointments are arranged through your own Veterinary Surgeon, who will arrange for your pet to be seen by an Advanced Practitioner at Rowe Referrals. Our Referral Veterinary Surgeons have gained a further qualification/competency by further study and/or practical experience. As a client of the Rowe Veterinary Group you will have access to some of the country's leading Veterinary Surgeons and diagnostic equipment to ensure your pet receives the best treatment available.

On-site MRI

We have been offering an elective MRI scanning service for almost 15 years, gaining a wealth of experience in advanced imaging. With the variety and number of cases increasing in recent years, the need for in-house access to advanced diagnostics has become critical to providing the top level of care to our patients and those referred to us. Our 1.5T Phillips scanner allows us to achieve incredibly detailed images for our own patients and those referred to us 24 hrs a day, 7 days a week. Our scans are performed by Ian Jennings, an RCVS advanced practitioner in Veterinary Diagnostic Imaging, who has a decade of experience with MRI and its interpretation. Referrals can be seen for either imaging & reporting only, allowing you to manage your own cases, or via our other departments. If you have any cases that would benefit from MR imaging or need any advice please contact us.
