The "Luke" Series - Episode 4

Weeks after the initial incident, Luke was left with a 15cm open wound at the back of his neck.  In this episode, Dr Chatry has cleared Luke for surgery after the underlaying infection had successfully cleared.

After his two hour surgery, Luke’s wound is successfully closed with several stitches, Dr Chatry walks us through the process in four video clips.

We might surprise you with a live update soon for you to meet Luke in person. 

Just a few weeks after his traumatic escape from dogfighting, Luke remains determined to recover.

A Gift That Lasts Past A Lifetime

It was a bequest made by the late Val Gorfinkel that enabled our Animal Hospital to receive a much-needed revamp about 16 years ago. That upgrade helped ensure that 40 000 animals received veterinary help during the past year.
