Great experience at the orthopaedic vet Ashbourne. This practice has been recommended by a family member who is a vet themselves. They were friendly, professional and thorough throughout the initial consultantation to Kai's TPLO operation. He is recovering well. Reasonable and fair pricing and the aftercare has been great too. Would highly recommend!

A huge thank you to Bart, Kath and the whole team for taking care of Bella, who required cruciate ligament surgery. Everyone was kind, helpful and informative and they took great care of Bella, both in and after her surgery. Any questions that I had were promptly replied to and reassuring of how to manage the recovery process. Whilst I hope we don’t have to go through it again, if we do Orthopaedic Vets Ashbourne will be my go to people! Ps: A lick sleeve is a lifesaver if your dog doesn’t like the cone of shame!

I cannot recommend Orthopaedic Vet Ashbourne highly enough. After my Staffy puppy Lola had an accident right before I was supposed to travel, Karl Underhill and the team at Orthopaedic Vet Ashbourne went above and beyond to fit her in for surgery the next day. The procedure was a total success and she was home the same evening. Beyond his surgical skill, Karl’s communication was incredible—he emailed me regularly for updates on Lola's recovery, which gave me such peace of mind. Truly professional and compassionate care.
