Very frendly and understanding

You get the feeling that this vet prioritises the animals more than profits, which is very rare these days. The care, professionalism, friendliness, and honesty shown to us and our old dog was worthy of more than five stars. Sadly we can’t remember the name of the lovely vet who saw us, but she looked after our standard poodle, Hugo so caringly. Thank you so much.

Our dog became sick and constipated while we were on holiday in the area. The receptionist was polite and friendly when we phoned. After taking our details and talking to the vet, she called us back and gave us an immediate appointment. The vet was very professional and explained her conclusions and plan of treatment in a very friendly and straightforward manor. Everything when well and our dog recovered after a few days. Cost was very reasonable and probably a quarter of what we would have had to pay back down south. So we highly recommend this surgery.
