🔍 Ever wondered what a LickiMat looks like under X-ray? We did too! When our friends at gave us a couple of mats at BVA Live, we couldn’t resist scanning them with our AGFA DR system. Why? Because when it comes to imaging, we love a challenge, even if it’s a dog’s favourite treat toy!

🌟 A modern practice redefining imaging excellence in Yorkshire
Opening in January 2024, Claro Hill Vets set out to deliver first-opinion care with referral-level imaging. With a Siemens Somatom Go CT scanner and Zoomax + Philosophy digital X-ray systems installed by us, they’ve done just that — welcoming over 100 out-patient CT cases from 30+ practices in their first year alone!
💡 “We saw a niche for out-patient CT imaging and collaborated with local practices to help them keep more cases in-house. The support from PLH Medical was brilliant from start to finish.”

✅ Crystal-clear X-rays for orthopaedic cases ✅ CT imaging for tumour staging, spinal disease, lung pathology & more ✅ BVA hip/elbow scoring for responsible breeders ✅ Seamless install & 2 days of dedicated training

What’s next for Claro Hill? ➡️ Expanding their clinical team ➡️ Becoming a 24/7 hospital ➡️ Exploring visiting MRI to expand services

Advice for new practices: “Go and see the equipment in use before committing. It’s a big investment — you need to be confident.”

👏 Thank you Claro Hill Vets for trusting us on your journey!
