Westwards Veterinary Practice

- Reviews consistently describe the team as professional, caring and considerate, with several owners highlighting kindness as much as clinical care. - A recurring theme is fast help when something is wrong, including quick appointments, same-day treatment for an injured dog, and seeing holiday visitors who were not registered with the practice. - Owners also mention thorough examinations and clear follow-up, including one case where a return check was offered for the next day if needed.

Westwards Veterinary Practice is an independent mixed practice in Campbeltown, treating both pets and farm animals, and says it has been operating for more than 100 years. Its website sets out a broad general-practice service including vaccinations, dental care, nutrition and fertility work, alongside emergency treatment for pets and farm animals. Recent reviews describe a caring, professional team, with quick help for urgent problems and reassuring out-of-hours support.

When I moved to Kintyre I was a little apprehensive about finding a new vets for my dogs. Westwards have given my boys and me the professional care, kindness and service I really value. Thank you so much !!!!

I had to call out of hours at weekend. I found the vet (Dominic) to be very compassionate and dealt with the issue promptly and efficiently. It really was peace of mind to know they were only a call away and happy to help. All reception staff are just as efficient and compassionate. Thank you!

Our dog was unwell while we were on holiday. The surgery gave us a quick appointment and the vet gave her a thorough examination . There was nothing apparently wrong, and they offered another examination next day. By the morning she was back to her old self, so we did not need to take her back. Thanks to the vet and the other staff who were kindness itself.

We were on holiday in Kintyre and our dog had injured himself. The practice was very helpful and got him in to see a vet the same day even though we obviously weren't registered with them. The staff in reception were very friendly and the vet was great. Very quickly sorted the dog out and we were able to enjoy the rest of our holiday with a very happy dog!
