The main communities that are serviced are Khuma (with a population of 68 713), Kanana (78 419), Jouberton (111 938) and Alabama (17 368) as well as other small communities. A clinic is held every second month with the last clinic being held in Khuma. The main goal is primary/preventative care in the form of vaccinations, sterilisations, parasite control and education. Secondary care is also implemented in the form of treating diseases. The contact details for the practice are provided in case of emergencies.

A secondary project on which Flamwood Veterinary Consulting Room is currently focusing is the TNR (trap, neuter and release) project to reduce the feral cat population in Klerksdorp. It is a non-lethal strategy which involves humanely trapping feral cats, spaying or neutering them, surgically removing the tip of one ear and returning the cats to their home. The funds for this project were kindly donated by the Klerksdorp Rotary Club.

As veterinarians it is our duty to assist, within our capacity, those animals who truly need us, who are vulnerable and without a voice. Let us provide care where we can. We can do this by donating funds, vaccinations, equipment, resources or time.
