Veterinary Specialty Hospital of Hong Kong (VSH Hong Kong) has been formed to bring genuine, specialty referral and 24-hour emergency medicine to Hong Kong’s veterinary community, with a philosophy based on a model of referral practice in North America and Australia. Specialty and emergency centers can and should serve as an essential resource for local practitioners who request specialized or eme

rgency care for complex medical problems in their patients. VSH Hong Kong aims to act as a collaborative partner and colleague to the community of family veterinary practitioners in Hong Kong. Importantly, the specialists at VSH Hong Kong will only accept patients who are referred by their regular veterinarian. Walk-ins and second opinions, other than true emergencies, are not accepted without direct referral. General practice services, such as wellness visits, dental scalings and vaccinations, are not offered. Our goal is to make sure that clients see our service as an extension of the general practice community in Hong Kong. VSH Hong Kong brings specialists in a range of veterinary disciplines to Hong Kong, and is fully equipped with advanced diagnostic and treatment capabilities. Our 14,000 sqft hospital is located in the heart of Wan Chai.

We expect a basic level of civility; disagreements are fine, but mutual respect is a must, and profanity or abusive language is out-of-bounds. Posts that are off-topic, solicitations, human resource matters, or posts clearly promoting a commercial product generally won’t last long. Our social media platforms are to be used for informational purposes only. What you read is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. You should always seek the advice of your primary veterinarian with any questions you have about your pet’s medical condition. We reserve the right to make adjustments to these guidelines as needed.

【寵物情報課|聽我講:一齊企硬,唔好畀毛孩亂食嘢 ☠️】

同養貓貓狗狗嘅朋友做個突擊檢查:知唔知屋企有冇以下食材同食物?唔准諗即刻答!
🍫 朱古力 🧅 洋蔥、蒜 🍇 提子、提子乾 🧁 含木糖醇食品 🥩 變壞食物、廚餘

有就要多加留意嘞~呢啲嘢食,對人類嚟講正常不過;但對於毛孩,可能足以引發食物中毒 ☣️!
就算只係「食咗少少」,都有機會喺短時間內出現異常 ⏲️。

VSH 亦提醒各位主人,要時常留意寵物會唔會出現以下中毒訊號:

🤢 肚屙、嘔吐 😴 精神轉差、唔願郁
🍽️ 突然唔食嘢 😖 腹痛、流口水
🌡️ 發燒 ⚡ 抽搐、失去方向感

❗ 唔好以為淨係「食錯嘢」咁小事——相比起一般細菌污染,毒性攝入嘅處理方法會係完全唔同,延誤求醫嘅風險更加高!

🧑‍⚕️ 專醫提醒大家,如果懷疑毛孩誤食或出現以上症狀,應立即停止餵食相關食物,並盡快求醫。VSH 24 小時急症服務 📞 2408 2588 / 💬 WhatsApp 6848 2588。

Pro-Care Tips | Stand Firm. Don’t Let Your Pets Eat the Wrong Things!

Quick check: do you have any of these at home?
🍫 Chocolate 🧅 Onions & garlic 🍇 Grapes & raisins 🧁 Xylitol-containing products 🥩 Spoiled or leftover food

These may seem harmless to us, but can cause food poisoning in pets ☣️
Even small amounts can trigger symptoms within hours ⏲️!

VSH reminds you to watch for these warning signs:

🤢 Vomiting, diarrhoea
😴 Lethargy, weakness
🍽️ Loss of appetite
😖 Abdominal pain, drooling
🌡️ Fever
⚡ Tremors, seizures, disorientation

❗ Food poisoning is not always simple ‘indigestion’. Toxic ingestion and bacterial contamination require different treatment approaches!

【專醫說故事|二重手術方案 同步抗擊複雜病例】

寵物嘅少少健康異常,有時會揭示更多大問題。
🐩 正如 4 歲玩具貴婦 Milo,原先只係因為小便困難嚟到 VSH,但經診斷發現,病情唔止一粒尿石咁簡單⋯⋯

🧑‍⚕️ 原來 Milo 嘅左側輸尿管,畀一粒大型結石完全阻塞住,令到左邊腎嘅功能受到影響。但問題唔止得咁多。

🩺 我哋嘅進一步評估發現,Milo 患有 門脈系統分流 (PSS),俗稱「肝分流」:簡單啲講,即係體內有一條異常血管,引導血液繞過肝臟,令毒素未被過濾就流入全身。長遠或會影響腦部、代謝功能,亦容易形成尿石 🪨。

經審慎考慮,外科專科獸醫范國柱醫生決定透過一次手術,同步施行兩項關鍵治療:

🔬 關閉肝臟異常血管
利用術中透視影像,即時顯示肝臟血管走向,確保處理準確。

🔬 植入皮下輸尿管繞道系統 (SUB)
為腎臟建立新嘅排尿通道,繞過阻塞、保護腎功能。

順利完成手術嘅 Milo 已經平安返到屋企,回復有人錫、有人陪散步嘅日常生活 🐾~
唔好忽視任何小問題,及早檢查 📞 2408 2588 / 💬 WhatsApp 6848 2588。

【Pro-Care Stories | One Surgery Plan, Two Critical Problems Addressed】

A ‘small’ symptom can sometimes point to a much bigger issue.
That was the case for Milo, a 4-year-old Toy Poodle, who came to VSH for difficulty urinating. What we found went far beyond a single urinary stone.

🧑‍⚕️ Milo had a large stone completely blocking his left ureter, which had already impacted left kidney function.

But there was more.
🩺 Further assessment confirmed a portosystemic shunt (PSS), also known as a ‘liver shunt’. In simple terms, an abnormal blood vessel was allowing blood to bypass the liver, so toxins were not properly filtered before circulating through the body. Over time, this can affect the brain and metabolism, and it can also increase the risk of urinary stone formation 🪨.

After careful planning, Dr Carlos Villamil, VSH Surgery Specialist, performed a single surgery to address both key issues:

🔬 Shunt correction (closing the abnormal vessel)
Using intraoperative fluoroscopy to visualise the liver blood vessels in real time and ensure precision.

🔬 SUB placement (Subcutaneous Ureteral Bypass)
Creating an alternative urine pathway to bypass the obstruction and protect kidney function.

We’re glad to share that Milo’s procedures went smoothly, and he is now safely back home, returning to the everyday moments that matter most 🐾.!

📍 住喺西邊嘅朋友,可以就近到 🌸 荔枝角公園 🌸 荃灣城門谷公園 🌸 機場櫻花園;東邊出發嘅朋友,則可考慮 🌸 大埔海濱公園 🌸 沙田城門河畔 🌸 香港單車館公園。不過留意花季都係屬於人流及犬隻活動較多嘅時候~

🐾 喺享受花海嘅同時,VSH 希望提醒各位主人:
🦮 保持牽繩控制
避免犬隻接觸或啃咬樹皮、花瓣、落葉或泥土中嘅植物殘留物。

🧹 留意地面環境
地面花瓣、樹枝或腐敗植物可能增加誤食風險,亦可引起腸胃不適。

🐾 適當規劃行走路線
花粉濃度較高嘅區域,對部分犬隻可能造成呼吸道或皮膚刺激。

🚑 及早求醫
如狗狗出現嘔吐、流口水、精神不振、步態異常,或懷疑曾接觸/誤食不明植物,應即時向獸醫求助。

【 💮 Cherry Blossom Season Guide】

Cherry blossoms are in full bloom. Planning to head outdoors with your pet?

📍 For those living in the west, popular viewing spots include 🌸 Lai Chi Kok Park 🌸 Shing Mun Valley Park 🌸 Airport Cherry Blossom Garden. For those in the east 🌸 Tai Po Waterfront Park 🌸 Shing Mun River Promenade 🌸 Velodrome Park.
Please note that the blossom season also brings increased foot traffic and pet activity.

🐾 While enjoying the scenery, VSH would like to remind pet owners to take note of the following:
🦮 Maintain leash control
Prevent dogs from chewing or ingesting bark, petals, fallen leaves, or plant residue in soil.

🧹 Monitor ground conditions
Petals, twigs, and decaying plant matter may increase the risk of accidental ingestion and gastrointestinal upset.

🐾 Plan walking routes carefully
Areas with higher pollen levels may trigger respiratory or skin irritation in some dogs.

🚑 Seek veterinary care promptly
If vomiting, drooling, lethargy, gait changes, or suspected plant exposure occurs, immediate veterinary attention is recommended.

Outdoor activities are beneficial for both pets and owners, but safety should always come first.

【為愛寵送暖 💙 #冬日護理 要點】

冬天天氣相對又乾又凍,對於長年習慣暖笠笠嘅香港寵物嚟講,其實係一個唔細嘅考驗。特別係短毛、年幼、年長,或者本身有病史嘅貓狗,更容易受寒冷影響 🥶。

🧣 保暖為先
為貓狗準備 #暖墊、 #保暖衣物 同舒適 #睡窩,保持 #室內溫度 穩定,同時避免 #冷空氣 直接吹到佢哋。對於關節較弱或行動較慢嘅毛孩,溫暖嘅休息環境尤其重要!

💧 健康同行
天氣乾冷時,記得鼓勵寵物飲多啲 #暖水,同時留意佢哋嘅 #關節活動 #泌尿系統 #呼吸道 狀況。天氣晴朗嗰陣,可以陪佢哋適量增加活動,有助維持 #血液循環 #免疫力,減低舊疾復發風險~

⚠️ 安全取暖
如果用暖墊或加熱用品,要避免寵物皮膚有機會貼近熱源,應以毛巾或墊物隔開,同時預留空間畀毛孩自行離開。過熱或者長時間接觸,有機會造成低溫燙傷,特別係感覺較遲鈍嘅老年或患病寵物!

🧑‍⚕️ 如發現毛孩出現精神轉差、活動力下降、食慾改變或其他異常情況,應及早向獸醫求診,避免小事演變成大患。🫶 任何緊急情況,VSH 24 小時急症診症服務團隊隨時提供支援 📞 2408 2588 / 💬 WhatsApp 6848 2588。
