  • Helen Back· 2 years ago

    I only rang to report finding a dog but the service was excellent and the member of staff was very friendly and efficient, connecting the owner of the dog to me, to get it back home. On the strength of that and their efficiency, I would definitely recommend and use in the future.

    Just joined. Very welcoming and helpful. Took the trouble to talk us through all aspects of our dog's issues and suggest ways forward. Great start.

  • Stephen Potter· 3 years ago

    Been with these good people since 1993 so they're clearly doing something right! Lovely friendly, professional staff at both locations and a consistently sensible and clear approach to veterinary practice in terms of talking to lay people and their animal companions. Reasonable fees too.

  • Malcolm Allderidge· 4 years ago

    I rang up, registered my cat, was given an appointment on the same day, and have received medication. All of this within 3 hours, if that doesn't impress you then you can not be impressed by anything. Friendly knowledgable staff collected my pet from the car, treated him and returned him to the car, so you are perfectly safe visiting this practice. You then pay by phone, so easy! Thank you!
