Dogwood Referrals continues to grow, and we're now looking for an additional RVN to grow with us. Referring vets across the North West continue to trust us with some of the most complex orthopaedic and neurological cases in the region, and our nursing team is expanding to match.

We're a specialist-led referral hospital in Sale, focused on orthopaedic and neurosurgical patients, plus our own physiotherapy and hydrotherapy service. Our nurses treat patients undergoing total hip replacements, complex joint surgery, fracture repair and advanced spinal surgery, working alongside European and RCVS Recognised Specialists every day.
