Order provided by Google. - sheena Harper (https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/104326210514573685027/reviews)· a month ago I have recently moved vets to the Beacon after 10 years with our old vets, so it was a big decision for us and our senior staffies, Molly and Sid! The nurses, receptionists and vet were wonderful, very reassuring and caring, and "terrified of the vet's" Molly was very much at ease with them. The prices are incredibly reasonable and we have become members of the Beaconeers which means the prices are even more affordable.

My dog has been with another vet practice since she was a puppy and although i had no problem with them, there was just that 'corporate feel' which made me feel less of a human and just more of just another 'paying customer'. So thankyou Beacon Vets for bringing that personal touch back.

For Pearnie May's pre op appoint we met Jenny again Jenny was absolutely wonderful with her, Jenny talked us through the procedure and put all my worries to rest. Every step of the way all the staff at Beacon Vets have been absolutely amazing, the level of care and compassion they show towards the pets and owners is second to none.
