Always a good vet in terms of getting an appointment but their prices have increased much more than the rate of inflation since they have been taken over so we’re looking elsewhere.

Absolutely fantastic veterinary clinic. Would highly recommend. When I took my dog to the surgery to explain his symptoms, the vet took the time to listen and even take notes with pen and paper as to what I was saying. Very attentive and helpful. Her advice was very helpful too. Brilliant.

Our wee one came from rescue being quite reactive. Everyone invested in her care doesn’t flinch or mind that she is reactive towards them. The understanding by the entire team is well received and noted. Thank you for your kindness towards her, despite her reactivity, and on this basis we would absolutely recommend Nithsdale Vets, Dumfries.

Wir waren mit unserem Hund hier, da er eine Bandwurmbehandlung vor unserer Reise nach Nordirland benötigte. Wir konnten am Abend zuvor online einen Termin vereinbaren, was ich super praktisch finde. Alle Menschen in der Praxis waren sehr freundliche und mit der Behandlung waren wir zufrieden. Vielen Dank! :-)
