      Recently changed vets to Oakhill and they’ve been amazing, they seem to genuinely care and listen to all concerns and answer every question really well, they haven’t made me feel rushed and was amazing with my dog. My dog needed to go under anaesthetic for his teeth to be removed and they went through it really well with me, was amazing with my dog, have phoned to check how he is and if I have any concerns and have booked a check up appointment in a week. The price is also so much better than expected. Overall a lovely caring vets.

      We’ve been attending Oakhill, formerly Abbey Veterinary on and off (mainly on 😊) for over 25 years. We always try to see Giles, Helen, or Judith. The reception staff are so lovely and always do their best to accommodate! Communication is excellent. Giles even came outside to see our German Shepherd for his ear problem. …If only there was a way to clone Helen, Giles and Judith… 🤔🤔 Truly professional and caring. What a relief to have the privilege of attending this practice. PS.. If Giles disappears, we’ve Kidnapped him. 👀🥰

    • Chloe· 6 months ago

      Awful vets! I rang earlier today confirming the price of the yearly booster jab for my one year old cat, who has had all of his previous vaccinations here and is an indoor cat. I was told over the phone it would cost £45.13 for an indoor cat’s booster jab and for a cat that goes outdoors it would be £67.52 The reception staff have always been strange not giving an accurate price that’s why I rang to confirm. After my cat had received the jab and I went to pay and I was told it’s £67.52 !?! I was explaining that I had already been told a price which was the £45.13 for an indoor cats booster and that £67.52 is a stupidly expensive price! The reception staff are just weird and couldn’t even show me the price list they was looking down at? And just told me no that’s the price I don’t know who you spoke to earlier on. I have either been robbed £20 or my cat has been given the wrong booster jab, even though I had talked to the vet nurse in the room so she knew he was an indoor cat ! I will not be bringing my cat here again.

      We have been with Oakhill for over 25 years and the last 13 with our beloved George. Recently in his older years we visit more frequently most recently to have a benign tumour removed from his mouth. I cannot thank everyone concerned enough for the amazing care shown to him and to us. From the explanation given by the amazing veterinary surgeon, the empathy shown by everyone we came across to the follow up telephone calls we received to ensure George was okay. Thank you Oakhill from the bottom of my heart.

      This is such a lovely practice where the staff really care for your pets. They really helped me and my little cat last year when I’d had surgery and was struggling with my cat’s matts. It’s definitely a 5* service. 💞
