What happens

The Bionic Vet is a BBC documentary television series following the work of veterinarian Noel Fitzpatrick at his veterinary practice in Surrey. Fitzpatrick and his team of over 100 vets, nurses and support staff find new methods and techniques to help pets within more unique problems that would often leave euthanasia as the only option. Many pets are brought to the practice from all over the country. Oscar the Cat, flown over from Jersey, was featured in the first episode. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
