I have been raving about Wessex Orthopaedics to anyone who will listen so thought it was time to write an official review! Our 1 year old corgi, Dexter, was unfortunately diagnosed with severe bilateral hip dysplasia last year. We were referred to Wessex Orthopaedics where we met Phil and the team. They have always gone above and beyond for Dexter and everyone has been incredibly empathetic, patient and supportive. Despite being a busy service, Phil always offers plenty of time to explain and never makes you feel rushed. Communication over the phone and via email is always prompt and helpful. Phil has always helped us to make decisions that are best for Dexter, including a period of conservative management before exploring surgical options. We feel that prices at Wessex Ortho are very fair, and their surgical guarantee has offered us a lifeline. Thank you to Phil, Harry and the team for everything you do - it is massively appreciated!
Read on Google →A very welcoming place for both pets and owners. You’re welcomed by very cheerful, helpful reception staff. Nothing seems to be too much trouble. My experience was excellent. The consultant/surgeon gave me professional educational advice that I needed without any pressure or prejudice, to help me make the decision for my pet. I highly recommend.

This was stabilised with a plate and screws. My own referring vet was right when advising me of the skilled treatment he would receive from Phil. He really is the best. Post op my vet stressed that instructions must be followed to avoid undoing Phil's good work which he was very impressed with. My insurance claim was handled with ease and there is a friendly atmosphere there.

We were so lucky to be recommended this practice by a friend just days before we were booked to have a TPLO at our normal vet practice, so we instead asked to be referred here. We didn’t have faith in our usual practice for this surgery for a few reasons and we were concerned about putting Gunner through the surgery aged 10 but Wessex answered all of our questions clearly and reassuringly. Their pricing was clear (actually cheaper than our normal vet), the staff there are absolute experts and the service is first class. My dogs are my children and I worry leaving them with anyone but I was so comfortable to leave Gunner in Phil’s safe and knowledgeable hands and can’t thank him enough. The practice is like a well oiled machine and we were kept updated on the day, given really clear instructions for post operative care, and his recovery went as smoothly as it could’ve done, but they were always so helpful when we had to call or email any queries. I certainly hope my dogs don’t have a need for any future orthopaedic surgeries but if they did I would come here without hesitation. Thank you so much to all the team for looking after Gunner ❤️
Read on Google →My puppy Margo had a serious break to her leg and my vet referred me to Wessex Veterinary Orthopaedics. It was a highly stressful time and the clinic had only just opened yet they couldn’t have accommodated me more. Phil was outstanding and clearly an experienced specialist veterinary practitioner, he really helped put my mind at ease whilst informing me of all the eventualities and possible risks, as well as what they were going to do during her operation and the desired outcome. The team were also amazing, so kind and attentive to Margo whilst she was at the clinic. It has been several months post op. Margo’s recovery has been fantastic. She is back to full strength and friends have commented that they didn’t even know she had an accident as she is back to full used of her limb- with no limp or pain. I would highly recommend this practice and would return in the future should there ever be a need too.
