Denmead Update - 19 May 20/05/2011
Thursday, 19 May 2011 Exciting times at our Denmead building site - firstly, we have confirmed the date for our OPEN DAY, it will be on Saturday, 25 June 2011, 1-4pm. The clinic will be open for appointments from Monday 27 June! The 'Dalmatian Bouncy Castle' has been booked, the balloons are on order, the BBQ or Hog Roast will be there, the big question left now is do we go for Pimms or Champagne? ....or BOTH!! In addition, the walls are finally starting to go up inside, which means we have finally been able to start getting a feel of what it will be like inside - we have all been impressed by how large and spacious the consulting rooms are and look forward to showing you round. Over the past few weeks the builders have got the underfloor heating installed, the floor levelled, our electricity supply was finally connected (thank you British Gas, at last!!), most of the equipment to be installed in the clinic has been ordered and most importantly, the majority of our staff who will be working in the clinic have started with us (at our Emsworth clinic for now)... More news about our staff to follow! And yes, the builders are confident we will be ready for the Open Day (just a reminder - it's 25 June, we hope to see you there!). More news to follow soon... Remember to keep checking back for more progress and register here to get updates, news of our opening date and an invite to our open day. See below for our latest photo gallery...

Wednesday, 13 April 2011 Wow! Our new clinic is definitely looking like a building site at the moment, as the photos below will testify. Unfortunately, we experienced our first vandalism incident recently, we had a few of our windows smashed and the builders safety fencing was pulled down, at least it happened when no one was at the site, but it left us all feeling a little sad. As for the building work... the flooring has been dug out, the ceilings have been exposed, some brick work has gone up and their is now no ceiling/floor under/over the offices. In addition, we have also spent a lot of time sourcing fittings and equipment for the clinic... we have a big shopping list and have a meeting planned this week to start finalising and placing orders for a lot of the diagnostic equipment, including state-of-the-art digital x-ray and ultrasound. The builders are still confident that we will be ready for our planned June opening. Remember to keep checking back for more progress and register here to get updates, news of our opening date and an invite to our open day. Downland Veterinary Group have got the builders in and they are now hard at work converting the former car showroom on Hambledon Road, Denmead to an all singing-and-dancing, state of the art, vet clinic! We plan to be open during June 2011 and have a web page dedicated to following the progress and offering useful updates and information if you live in the Denmead area and are looking forward to the introduction of our veterinary care services in your area. The site for our new vet clinic in Denmead is being completely renovated to provide our new clients with excellent services. New clients and their pets will benefit from:
Abby Vincent joins Downland Veterinary Group as Practice Manager having previously enjoyed a 18 year career working in the veterinary sector. Abby is a qualified veterinary nurse who has been working in senior management for a large group of veterinary clinics for the past eight years. Abby brings a wealth of experience to DVG and will be supporting the development of the group over the coming years, ensuring customer service remains a top priority for all staff, whilst also supporting the internal management of the group. On the 3rd October 2010, the staff from Downland Veterinary Group, Bognor Regis, took part in a 3 mile dog walk to help raise money for The Dog Trust. Many staff turned out for this exciting day and completed the walk at Stanmore Park in Brighton, despite the rain that decided to join them! Well done to everyone for taking part in this charitable event! |
