In 2009, Dr. Anthony Beck and Dr. Shi Yibing founded the first Baker and Stone Animal Hospital in China, and each physician took a portion of his own name to form the humorous and vivid hospital name: Beck and Stone. Today, Baker & Stone Animal Hospital has opened a large number of branches in Hong Kong and Singapore in addition to its online stores in China, which has allowed the Baker and Stone brands to enter a broader market. In 2017, the hospital ranked seventh in the comprehensive strength ranking of pet hospitals in China.
A graduate of the Royal Veterinary College in London, Dr. Anthony Beck studied feline medicine, ophthalmology, ultrasound and plastic surgery in Hong Kong and London before opening Baker & Stone Animal Hospital until 2006, when he was invited to Beijing Ornamental Animal Hospital, where he met another founding partner, Dr. Shi Yibing. Dr. Shi Yibing has extensive experience in the field of veterinary diagnosis and treatment in China, and his work experience in many animal hospitals in Beijing also brings a wealth of clinical medicine to Dr. Shi. The combination of the two has led to the success and success of today's Baker and Stone Animal Hospitals.
In keeping with Baker and Stone's mission to advance the field of veterinary medicine in Asia, the hospital has made every effort to align the hardware and software of its branches with international animal clinic standards as much as possible. The hospital uses systematic clinical case methods and scientific diagnosis and treatment of sick pets, and establishes 24-hour intensive care facilities and a dedicated nursing team. Comply with strict international animal clinic hygiene protocols, exchange the cases of each sick pet between clinics, let the diagnosis of multiple physicians help pets get appropriate treatment, and strictly control the source and distribution of animal medicines. So that the patient pet can be strictly checked and controlled at every step of the treatment.
In addition to routine animal medical services, the hospital also provides electronic chip implantation services for animals. The hospital can use the injection method to implant the electronic chip with relevant information under the animal's skin, and the information of the pet in the chip, such as the residential address and the phone number of the pet owner, can be identified by a professional scanner when the animal is lost or conscious, so as to help the animal finder contact the pet owner, so that the animal can reunite with the owner as soon as possible.
Regrettably, the hospital was exposed to a serious misdiagnosis on Weibo at the end of 2017, which had a significant impact on the hospital's reputation in Beijing. The hospital's fees are relatively high, taking the female dog sterilization surgery as an example, the price is as high as 2,500 yuan, but the supporting services included are very complete, and the corresponding pet supplies and supporting follow-up services will be given in the service. Pet owners can also opt for the hospital's foreign doctor service, but the cost of the consultation varies from 20% to 50% higher than that of Chinese doctors.
