    I have been using this vets for over 25 years and during each and every one of those visits the staff have been very professional and polite. I have found each veterinarian I have seen during consultation, patient and very thorough when explaining what treatment my pet needs to treat them. I was shown empathy and understanding when two very much loved dogs were euthanatised and allowed the time to sit with them once they’d passed. Stating I was not to rush, which I was so grateful for. The only negative was, with my recent visit I was frantically trying to make an appointment over the phone, which didn’t get answered and had to do that on-line, which was quick and easier than I thought so my stress levels didn’t increase after no answer when I called and got an appointment the same day. Definitely better than the GP! The place was really clean and the waiting room was well set up with a separate area for cats and dogs and the blankets with a calming scent to put over my cats carrier which was useful. There’s also a candle advising others when lit someone is grieving, Which I thought was a lovely idea.

    We have used this vet for 15 years for one of our cats and in that time it has gone downhill massively. They’re hesitant to do blood testing even when asked to, and after an 18 month+ battle over a simple blood test she was found to have (as assumed and told to the vet) hyperthyroidism. Considering this can be potentially cancerous and is a lifelong condition it is truly appalling that even when asked and given reasons they don’t have any motivation to do blood testing. Between this and unrecognised dental issues (where are the nose to tail checks??!) we won’t be using this vet again. The vets don’t seem particularly caring or interested in problems your pet may have, and are quick to assume that the problems are your fault. We were told that our cat was ‘just bored’ and that was her cause for overeating, even after it was mentioned several times by us that we thought she was hyperthyroid.
