Sometimes, a consultation with one of our vets isn’t necessary. Our friendly veterinary nurse clinics offer expert care and advice for a wide range of routine treatments and check-ups – all in a relaxed, supportive environment. Whether your pet needs their claws trimmed, help managing their weight, or a post-op check, our qualified veterinary nurses are here to help.
Veterinary Nurse Clinic
Supportive nurse clinics for everyday care, checks, and advice
What is a veterinary nurse clinic?
A veterinary nurse clinic is a nurse-led appointment designed to support your pet’s health through preventative care, general wellbeing checks, and follow-up treatments.
While our nurses can’t diagnose medical conditions or prescribe medication, they work closely with our vets to deliver high-quality care – and they’re a fantastic source of advice, support, and reassurance for pet owners.
The types of veterinary nurse clinics are available at Nova
Our nurse clinics cover a wide range of services to keep your pet healthy, comfortable, and thriving – all tailored to their age and needs.
Pet weight management
Struggling to keep your pet at a healthy weight? Our nurses offer personalised weight clinics with nutrition advice, weight monitoring, and ongoing support to help your pet stay trim and happy.
Pet nail trimming
Keeping your pet’s nails short isn’t just cosmetic – it’s sometimes essential for their comfort and mobility. Our nurse-led nail trims are stress-free and quick, with lots of treats and gentle handling.
Puppy and kitten checks
Start your new pet off on the right paw with our nurse clinics for puppies and kittens covering growth checks, parasite prevention, nutrition advice, socialisation tips, and more.
Senior pet health checks
Older pets can benefit from regular nurse-led wellness checks. We’ll monitor their weight, mobility, dental health, and general wellbeing — catching small changes before they become problems.
Post-operative wound checks and stitch removal
Our nurses provide gentle, thorough post-op checks to ensure your pet is healing well. We’ll assess wounds, remove sutures if needed, and keep you updated on their recovery.

Answers to our veterinary nurse clinic FAQs
Got questions about our veterinary nurse clinics? We’ve answered some of the most common queries from pet owners to help you understand what to expect, what our nurses can help with, and how these appointments can support your pet’s ongoing health and wellbeing.
Can a vet nurse prescribe or diagnose conditions?
No – only vets are legally allowed to diagnose conditions and prescribe medications. If your pet needs a diagnosis or treatment plan, our nurses will recommend a vet consultation.
Are nurse clinics suitable for nervous or senior pets?
Yes. Nurse clinics are often quieter, more relaxed, and ideal for pets who find vet visits stressful. Our nurses are trained in gentle handling and low-stress techniques for all ages.
Do I need to book an appointment, or can I just drop in?
Appointments are required for all nurse clinics to make sure we have enough time to give your pet the care and attention they deserve. Booking is quick and easy online or by phone.
Can I see the same nurse each time for continuity?
Where possible, yes! We know pets (and owners) appreciate familiar faces, so we’ll always do our best to book you in with the same nurse for ongoing care.
