  First called up to register my cat. The online booking system is good but it requested a phone call for dental work. I called and they couldn't find evidence of my registration online. They told me they were too busy and they will call me back, but I never received a call. As I needed a consultation before dental work, I decided to use the online system to book a general appointment. Upon arrival, the staff were very friendly and the place was nice and clean. However, they couldn't find my booking and actually had the wrong name for my pet down somehow. I showed the text I received evidencing I had registered the name correctly, plus I had had my previous vet forward the history to them, so unsure how this could have been keyed in wrongly. The appointment was on time. After a 1-2 minute examination of my cat, I was told he could have a huge range of diseases and was quoted £620 for bloods and xray and a further possible £2k for tooth extraction for my cat It is worth adding he had been seen by a different vet 9 months prior who were confident that the cause was stomatitis and most of his teeth are already removed, so the quote is beyond extortionate if extraction is needed. Everywhere else can do all for an absolute max £1k for major dental work (confirmed directly by 2 very positively reviewed vets plus a google search will tell you the same). Overall, really insulting prices quoted following a rushed check up. Profits clearly the big priority over care for animals.

  This is an outstanding, values-based veterinary practice. Genuine friendliness of all the people I met. A very pleasant reception area with free coffee! Highly professional and empathetic vet who was extremely attentive, and explained clearly the reason for my dog’s symptoms. Very reasonably priced. I am so grateful for finding this practice. Thank you so much.

  I am very disappointed with the experience during my visit today. I have been using this veterinary practice for several years, and both of my dogs have always received their routine vaccinations and care here. Although my dogs are fully compliant with UK import regulations, have complete documentation, and have an established medical history with the clinic, they were treated as imported animals during this visit, which resulted in unexpected and unsuitable arrangements. My dogs are well-behaved and calm in clinical environments, and have never caused any issues when waiting indoors. However, on arrival for our appointment, we were asked to complete a form and then instructed to wait outside in the car park on the basis that the dogs were considered imported / not born in the UK. No clear explanation of this policy was provided at the time. There was: No prior notice in the booking system or email communications No explanation given by reception staff upon arrival No consideration of alternative waiting arrangements The waiting area provided was an open car park with no shelter, and no proper effort was made to check whether we had access to a vehicle or how we could be contacted. We waited for around 30 minutes without any update. Eventually, the vet had to come out to the car park to locate us, which suggests a lack of coordination between reception and clinical staff. Although the vet later mentioned a new policy during the consultation, this was not communicated by reception when we arrived, which made the process confusing and stressful. Overall, the experience felt disorganised and inconsistent, particularly given that the dogs are long-term patients, fully documented, and well settled in indoor clinical settings. For any pet owner, especially in poor weather or without a vehicle, this kind of arrangement would be extremely difficult and distressing. I hope the practice reviews how such situations are handled, as communication and consistency clearly need improvement.
