Hundred of clinics share their thoughts.

Kathryn, Vet Nurse
​
​
The Velfast® E-collars are really convenient. They get on and off quite easily. I also like the soft edge on the neckline. The Velcro is strong, making the E-collar re-usable, compared to a clickable E-collar, less sturdy. They look nice too.
STRAP BAND - Bandages
​
Rhiannon, Nurse Manager
​
I like the fact Genia bandages are long. They're also easier to use and wrap around.
COSYPAD® - Versatile Mat
​
Dr Trevor, Practice Owner & Veterinarian
​
We value the Genia Cosypad® for its efficiency in keep our patients on a dry comfortable surface but also for its hardwearing quality and ease of cleaning. Would recommend as a good investment.
VACUUMAT® - Positioning Mat
​
Kylie, Head Nurse
​
​
The Vacuumat® is working well. It's ideal for small animals, especially to maintain them on their back; we use it for each surgery.
​
Dr Kim, Veterinarian BSc, BVMS
​
​
The dental toy has still proven to be a much loved toy of the nurse's border collie and has remained indestructible.
PERFUVET® TWIST - Tangle Free IV Set Device
​
Jane, Vet Nurse
​
The Perfuvet® Twist is brilliant! We used it last time for a little dog who was sick, and he didn't get tangled in the cage.
GREENCOL® E-COLLARS
​
Shanna, Practice Manager
​
The Greencol® E-collars are cheaper than Buster. We also like the fact we can hang them on the same hook, and pull the one we need without taking off the others ones, thanks to the opened hole.
​
Dr Amelia, Practice Owner & Veterinarian BSc, BVMS MVS
​
​
Genia soft splint rolls are quite good; we like the fact they're moldable.
COSYPOP® - Supportive Bed
​
Dr Kate, Veterinarian
​
The Cosypop® has been a hit with the team. It's extremely useful for patients with poor bladder control, to help drain away moisture and avoid urine scalding. The soft cushioning in the base is also very comfortable for our non-ambulatory patients, and the raised edges allow us to easily keep their head elevated. It's super simple to clean, and fits perfectly in a standard size cage. We often reach for it if we have patients with tick paralysis, a neurological disorder, or just any animal that needs a particularly comfy spot that feels like a more homely dog bed.
PERFUVET® MICRO - IV Set
​
Dr Simon, Veterinarian
​
​
I like the Perfuvet® Micro giving set because we don't have any IV pump. It is lovely to have some degree of metered control of the flow rate. We do make sure to hang the i/v bag as high as possible to maximise the accuracy. Works well in small to medium dogs and cats.
DRYSOFT® - Puppy Pads
​
Greta, Practice Manager
​
Genia puppy pads are really good, we never had any leak with, as they are highly absorbent. We like the fact they come in pack of 25.
​
Monique, Vet Nurse
​
​
Bitter taste bandage gives us an extra security and more comfortable. It ensures the patient doesn't lick it and secures the catheter and the fluid.
​
Dr Jacqueline, Veterinarian
​
​
I've use the tablet crusher and it works well and is easy to clean.
VACUUMAT® - Positioning Mat​
​
Judy, Practice Manager
​
​
All of us at the clinic love al of the Genia products - especially our positioning beds that you remove the air from. They are perfect for the Radiography room and Operating table.
DIGIFLASH - Thermometers
​
Tracey, Practice Manager
​
The Digiflash thermometers are the quickest we have found which is important in emergency situation, and our patients cope better with the flexible tip.
​
Kylie, Head Nurse
​
We like using the Monofil, Glycofil® and Filamid suture materials because they are easy to use, clear on sizing on the pack, well priced and have a longer shelf life than most alternatives. They also come with a convenient weighted rack which makes them easy to access for the vets.
VACUUMAT - Positioning Mat​
​
Dr Demian, Practice Owner & Veterinarian
​
​
We recently purchased two of the Vacuumat® for our busy small animal practice. They have been an instant hit with all the nurses and the vets. They are fantastic for holding patients in position (especially the awkward deep chested breeds) and are extremely easy to use and keep clean. I would highly recommend them. In fact I've just ordered some more!
​
Dr Sam, Practice Owner & Vet BVSc
​
​
I ended up giving the dental toy to my dog Tilly and given she normally destroys toys in record time, it’s amazing the dental toy is still intact.
​​
Dr Chloe, Veterinarian BVSc​
​
​
Mainly used for long term patients such as snake bites to prevent pressure sores. So far they have been very successful.
​
Jana, Practice Manager
​
​
The Bitter Band is great for stopping patients licking their bandage. The handy starting strip makes it easy to find the beginning of the bandage to unroll.
​
Jacqueline, Practice Manager
​
​
I like the fact we can cut the soft splint rolls to shape and mold them.
​
Kay, Practice Manager
​
We like the size of the Pet Piller. We find it easy to use.
PERFUVET® MICRO - IV Set​
Dr Amanda, Practice Owner & Veterinarian​
​
​
We love this product. We can use it for small animals but we mainly use these for CRI’s (Constant Rate Infusions) when delivering such medications as methadone for pain relief.
COSYPAD®- Versatile Mat
​
Dr Anthony, Practice co-owner & Senior Veterinarian
​
As a veterinary nurse for 12 years before a practicing vet, I can thoroughly appreciate the sheer amount of cleaning, washing and disinfecting required in day to day operations of a hospital. We want out patients to be comfortable and warm and are always looking to improve hospital care and efficiencies when dealing with bodily excrements. When Génia introduced their new Cosypad® we trialed them, and within weeks filled every cage in 2 24hr hospitals with them as routine. Now every patient has a comfortable non slip bed which keeps them off cold surfaces and prevents urine scalding. Being hygienically washable means we have drastically reduced our use of towels and the costs of washing as a consequence. We have also found them particularly useful as a non-slip surface in consult and prep benches, and routinely use them as the resting surface for patient heads during dental procedures, with pee pads underneath keeping their face far cleaner. Very useful in the car too ! We absolutely love them! :)
DIGIFLASH® - Thermometers​
​
Danny, Practice Manager​
​
Allows us to use time effectively ! Less discomfort for animals and quicker procedure time, up to date nursing practice.
DRYSOFT® - Puppy Pads​
​
Brie, Practice Manager
​
The Drysoft® are very absorbent;
good quality.
VACUUMAT® - Positioning Mat
​
Roz, Practice Owner
​
​
​
​
The Vacuumat® is easy! You don't need to worry to roll a towel, you just need to mold it around the patient, and you're good to go!
​
Gemma, Vet Nurse
​
Thomas loved the dental toy! I was worried it was too big for him but he really tries to chomp down on it to get the food inside. I also really love how easy it is to clean and that it is dishwasher safe. We have ordered one in as they will be great for pets as owners go back to work - Thomas was entertained for almost two hours, including while we were having dinner which never happens usually.
​
Alana, Practice Manager
​
​
The Neocol® is a great owner compliance. Love the soft padding to protect furniture and shins. Colour coding makes for easy identification.
​
Venessa, Practice Manager
​
Genia urinary catheters are so easy to use ! They go through really well. They have as well a wide size reference, to fit them all! Cat catheters: We like the fact we can easily stitch the base in. Dog catheters: They are durable. They're nice and sturdy, without being too stiff.
PERFUVET® MICRO - IV Set
​
Kylie, Head Nurse
​
We started using the Perfuvet® Micro giving sets for patients undergoing routine surgeries as they are accurate and cheaper than the giving sets that work go with our fluid pump.
UROLENE® CAT - Urinary Catheters
​​
Jenny, Vet Director
​
I highly recommend the Urolene® catheter. It makes unblocking cats much less stressful. The hub also has a rotating collar and is more comfortable for the patient. The stylet also allow easier catheterisation without traumatising the urethra excessively.
COSYPAD® - Versatile Mat
​
Megan, Vet Nurse
​
We have been using Cosypad® during our dental procedures and ear flushes for the last year or so. They help to keep our patients dry. They are really easy to wash, straight into the washing machine with our other items and they dry very quickly.
COSYPOP® - Supportive Bed
​
Robyn, Practice Owner
​
Our patient Daisy enjoyed the Cosypop. She couldn’t wait to get into it. She was in hospital and the bed helped to keep her clean and dry and, as you can see, very comfortable!
VACUUMAT® - Positioning Mat​
​
Tascha, Senior Vet Nurse
​
We have received the Vacuumat® and been using it for a couple of weeks now. We love it as it not only keeps our patient well insulated and helps prevent hypothermia but also is great with positioning for dental radiographs.
CARBONTECH V2 - Heating Mat​
​
Renee, Vet Nurse
​
I have absolutely been loving the new Carbon Tech heat matts! Both sizes have been working really well in keeping all our patients warm under anaesthetic as well as keeping them comfortable after procedures 😊 The waterproof material and fast warming has been perfect for our daily surgery and hospital patients.
