    To much information for a first visit, I ended up paying £97 ,the receptionist was telling me about pet insurance and I had to activate it asap, I asked the vet to explain the price of the different packages , I only wanted to pay for the first injection and the rest as and when , but when I went to pay I was told it was £97. Not what I expected .I asked did they have a leaflet and was asked what for , I wanted to make sure I was doing the best for my new puppy , feeding ,going out for walks ,injections etc .

    Outstanding care by Charlotte over the past year, and compassion shown by Sophie and the nursing staff including reception on a very sad day for us today. RIP Tommy, simply the best Labrador we could have wished for. Everyone at this business, have a very high level of knowledge and customer service, and we cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you Stu, Zoe and of course Tommy 🐾🐾❤️
