Rover Veterinary Hospital, Battaramulla celebrates second anniversary

Rover Veterinary Hospital, Battaramulla is the first-of-its-kind in Sri Lanka, a full service mixed animal practice in a fully air conditioned 25,000 sq. ft. facility in the heart of Colombo, that opened its premises to the public two years ago. Spearheaded by the Chief Veterinary Officer Dr. Eranda Rajapaksha (BVSc, MS, PhD, DACVB, DACAW), their team of highly skilled veterinary surgeons, devoted animal care assistants and the dedicated supporting staff make use of the most advanced medical, surgical and diagnostic services available to provide compassionate and evidence based veterinary care with excellent client satisfaction. 

The hospital is the first to be designed in the international standards, with individual examination rooms, advanced surgical suites, state-of-the-art IDEXX diagnostic laboratory and the in-house x-ray and scanning facilities to help with rapid diagnosis and welfare oriented care, as well as a comprehensive 24/7 emergency service. Furthermore, the soundproof and air conditioned ward and boarding facilities, pet grooming and preventative immunisation care ensure that pet owners can rely on them to make their loved companions have a very relaxed time focused on being on their optimal health. 

It also offers puppy training and behavioural therapy sessions, with the understanding that mental and social health is as important in animals as in humans. Rover Veterinary Hospital aims to achieve and maintain the highest standards of veterinary medicine, and be a shining example to the next generation of veterinary surgeons in Sri Lanka, with many outreach programs and partnerships planned for the coming year.
