MRI confirmed that Alf had suffered
a small stroke to the thalamus. In
dogs, whilst most strokes have a good
prognosis, improvement can take time,
with physical therapy key to helping them
walk again. Luckily, our fantastic nurses
and physiotherapist were on hand to
help Alf begin the road to recovery!
Finally, it is time for the weekend,
when members of our Neurology and
Neurosurgery service will be on call,
dealing with a range of neurological
emergencies from the local and wider
area. For the remaining team members,
it is a welcome chance to rest and
recuperate to be ready for the interesting
cases of week to come.
