About us
Blaise is a large scale, multi-disciplinary referral hospital which encompasses the culture and high clinical standards IVC prides itself upon. Blaise has added to IVC’s extensive referral network, which now consists of over 100 referral sites across UK & Ireland. This was the first purpose built hospital in our group, providing an opportunity to be part of something special and continue to shape our future.
The hospital is one of the largest in the UK at over 36,000 sq ft, with the capacity to treat up to 10,000 pets per year. From the site we provide specialist led multi-disciplinary veterinary referrals and a 24/7 emergency service.
What a fantastic experience. My cat was referred to Blaise for a heart scan and I was dreading it. The receptionists were lovely, helpful and very kind. Xavier was brilliant he was lovely with Sox making him feel calmer before the scan which made me feel a whole lot better. The outcome was good news as well. Thank you all for your dedication and caring manner – Karen M – Gppgle Review
