Welcome to Dr. Gerald Blackburn

Welcome to our dedicated Pet Hospital, your trusted partner in ensuring the long and healthy life of your cherished pets in Singapore. As a leading pet care provider in the region, we understand the deep bond you share with your animal companions and are committed to offering exceptional veterinary services in a comfortable and welcoming environment. Our state-of-the-art facility is designed with your pet's well-being in mind, from the moment you step through our doors to the follow-up care after their visit.

Our hospital boasts a modern and clean environment, meticulously maintained to the highest standards of hygiene. We understand that a visit to the vet can be a source of anxiety for some pets, which is why we have thoughtfully designed our spaces to be as calming and stress-free as possible. Our reception area is spacious and well-lit, with comfortable seating and separate waiting areas for cats and dogs to minimize potential stress. We also utilize calming pheromone diffusers and play soothing background music to create a more relaxed atmosphere. Each examination room is equipped with the latest diagnostic equipment and designed to allow our veterinarians to conduct thorough and comfortable examinations. For more intensive procedures and surgeries, we have dedicated, sterile operating theaters and advanced monitoring systems to ensure the safety and well-being of your pet during their time with us.

We offer a comprehensive range of veterinary services to address all aspects of your pet's health. Our team of experienced and compassionate veterinarians and veterinary nurses are dedicated to providing personalized care tailored to your pet's individual needs. Our preventative care services are designed to keep your pet healthy throughout their life, including routine health check-ups, vaccinations, parasite prevention (flea, tick, and heartworm), and nutritional counseling. We believe that proactive care is essential for early detection and management of potential health issues.

In addition to preventative care, we offer advanced diagnostic services utilizing cutting-edge technology. Our in-house laboratory allows for rapid and accurate processing of blood tests, urine analysis, and other diagnostic samples, enabling prompt diagnosis and treatment. We also have advanced imaging capabilities, including digital radiography (X-rays) and ultrasound, which provide detailed internal images to aid in the diagnosis of a wide range of conditions. Our skilled veterinarians are proficient in interpreting these images to develop effective treatment plans.

For pets requiring surgical intervention, our hospital is equipped with modern surgical suites and a team of experienced surgeons. We perform a wide variety of surgical procedures, from routine desexing (spaying and neutering) to more complex soft tissue and orthopedic surgeries. Anesthesia is administered and monitored by trained veterinary professionals using the latest anesthetic agents and monitoring equipment to ensure your pet's safety throughout the procedure. Post-operative care is provided in a comfortable and closely monitored recovery area.

We also understand the importance of dental health for your pet's overall well-being. Our dental services include routine dental check-ups, professional teeth cleaning under anesthesia, dental X-rays, and treatment of dental diseases. We educate pet owners on the importance of home dental care to help maintain their pet's oral hygiene between professional cleanings.

Recognizing that pets may require specialized care, we also offer access to a network of veterinary specialists in various fields, including cardiology, dermatology, ophthalmology, and internal medicine. We can facilitate referrals and collaborate with specialists to ensure your pet receives the best possible care for complex medical conditions.

Our Pet Hospital is committed to providing not only excellent medical care but also exceptional client service. Our friendly and knowledgeable reception staff are always available to assist you with appointment scheduling, answering your questions, and providing information about our services. We believe in clear and open communication and will take the time to explain your pet's condition, treatment options, and answer any concerns you may have. We strive to build strong relationships with our clients based on trust and understanding.

Beyond our core services, our Pet Hospital offers several features designed to enhance your and your pet's experience. We understand the busy lifestyles of pet owners in Singapore and offer convenient appointment scheduling options, including online booking and appointment reminders. Our in-house pharmacy provides a convenient way to obtain prescribed medications and pet care products. We also offer nutritional counseling services to help you choose the best diet for your pet's specific needs and life stage.

We are also strong advocates for pet wellness and offer educational resources and workshops for pet owners on various topics, including pet first aid, behavior management, and senior pet care. We believe that empowering pet owners with knowledge is crucial for promoting the health and happiness of their animal companions.

While specific promotional information may vary, we are committed to offering value to our clients. We may periodically offer special packages for routine procedures like vaccinations or desexing, as well as loyalty programs for regular clients. We encourage you to inquire about any current promotions when you contact us to schedule an appointment. We strive to make high-quality veterinary care accessible and affordable for pet owners in Singapore.

At our Pet Hospital, we are more than just a veterinary clinic; we are a dedicated team of animal lovers committed to providing the highest standard of care for your furry family members. We invite you to experience the difference our compassionate approach, comprehensive services, and state-of-the-art facilities can make in your pet's life. Contact us today to schedule an appointment and let us partner with you in ensuring your pet's health and well-being for years to come. We look forward to welcoming you and your beloved pet to our hospital.

Gentle Care Animal Hospital. I did not see Dr Blackburn. Twitter, my cat, saw Dr Steve Allen. He is wonderful. Gentle Care provides excellent vet services at the best prices. They also won an award for Best Veterinarian Practice in Memphis.

Great service and always able to get an appointment. I have not used their kennel service, so I can't comment on it. We have taken all three of our dogs there for the last 8 years and wouldn't go anywhere else for their care.
