The nation’s favourite vet, Professor Noel Fitzpatrick returns for an all-new season featuring the extraordinary work of his unique veterinary practice where families bring their beloved animals to receive the finest specialist care on offer and for whom, in many cases, Noel and his team can offer hope when other options have run out.

This sixteenth series starts with a Supervet Special; one of the most emotional and heart-rending stories ever filmed for the show: the story of Noel’s dog, Keira.

It’s been fifteen years since Noel began expanding the boundaries of veterinary medicine at his practice in Surrey, and his soulmate, the inimitable ‘ball of furry joy’, Border terrier Keira (now thirteen) has been by his side all the way. “She’s as big a reason that Fitzpatrick Referrals exists, as I am,” Noel says, “she is my muse. When I think about any animal that comes through these doors, I think how would I treat her .. there’s hope, there always has to be hope because love, hope and faith is all we’ve got. She’s all of that to me.”

The new series will air every Thursday at 8pm on Channel 4 for six weeks, starting on 27th May 2021
