    Absolutely awful been taking my dog there since he was a puppy, we really tried to stick out with them but it got to a point we kept getting given the same medication which was not helping his skin over and over again costing £200+ each time and taking him back every couple of weeks which has costed hundreds maybe nearly grands,this vets is very much about money. Took him to a new vets today and they may diagnose him with something as soon as we get a urine test and we have only paid £120 for antibiotics,glands emptied etc !would not recommend here at all.

    Having previously relied on MGB Claines for the very specialist care of my beautiful husky girl, signing up my spaniel puppy was really an obvious choice. We have always managed to get a same day appointment when required and the pets app is very helpful for booking non urgent things also. Every professional we have come across there is absolutely fantastic. Compassionate, knowledgeable and truly put the welfare of your pet at the centre of their decision making.

    Really can't fault MBG for their outstanding care of Lasco. They gave me all the options prior to the surgery. On the day, they were all fabulous, Steve did a great job, they called to let me know how things went as promised and the after care has been fantastic. We can't thank you enough for all you have done for Lasco.
