    I’ve been coming here for as long as I can remember. Jo and team have been amazing with my little dog Millie who was diagnosed with cancer back in March. They have been so supportive and go above and beyond. Thank you Jo and team💓

    Last week, out of the blue, we had to have our beautiful dog, Jess, put to sleep. The whole team at the vets went out of their way to help us make such a horrid situation a little easier. From their love and kindness to Jess, affording her every dignity they possibly could, to their empathic, patient and gentle treatment of us, they have been amazing. Not only last week, but they continue to be thoughtful and kind, offering help wherever they can. Jo, Rachel, Connor, Emma and the rest of the team, thank you. And if you ever find yourself looking for a brilliant vets practice, look no further.

    Had a really excellent experience there last week with my cat. The lady on the front desk was really friendly and helpful, and the vet was very caring and did a great job trying to figure out why my (terrified of the vet) cat was limping. Highly recommend.

    Our Border Terrier Rafferty was with Goring Vets for most of his life and they looked after him with great attention and care. All the staff are friendly and relaxed, while being efficient and professional. When Rafferty very sadly had to be put down recently they were sensitive and empathetic and I can thoroughly recommend them as a veterinary practice.

    Rude. Disrespectful. Booked a joint vaccination appointment with cat & dog. Told them on the phone car journeys traumatise the cat so we only do it once a year. On the day they missed called us once. We tried calling back 15+ times to no response. No voicemail message. On arrival we sat waiting for over 30 minutes before they decided to tell us that they had cancelled the appointment and "couldn't get through to us". We took a day off and traumatised the cat for nothing. We find this rude and unprofessional. Not even a second attempt to contact us, no voicemail, didn't try both numbers. Much to improve.
