In February 1991 major alterations took place at the Stenhousemuir surgery. The premises at the back were extended to make a new kennelling area, operating theatre, and general prep room. The premises had to be vacated for over 3 months because of the scale of the disruption. A Portacabin was hired and all veterinary business was conducted from this temporary accommodation outside the main building. By June we were back into our spanking new premises and work was busier than ever. Marketing the practice now became more of a priority, and the services of a professional photographer were engaged to produce high quality pictures of staff and all the various aspects of the new improved proactice.
