I attended this practice today for the first time with my new cat Percy (this is also the first vets I’ve ever been to in my life!) and I felt so at ease while I was there. My concerns were listened to and the appointment service quick & thorough. The receptionists were attentive and Helen the vet we seen was so lovely; treating my cat as if he was hers, explaining what she was doing and the results of her findings when examining him and going out of her way to explain vaccines and when he would need them (I’m a first time cat mam!). Would highly recommend to anyone who has concerns about their beloved fur-child.

Had to take my dog there today as he vomited blood and I was scared of a blockage. The receptionist who I spoke to first was absolutely amazing, she could tell I was getting worried and she reassured me so much (Tina). The vet I seen (Bia) put me at ease, made me feel like she had all the time in the world for me and my dog. Explained every different approach and was up front with the costs, which does help. Made such a difference for a very scary time for me.

We love this practice as they are so kind and caring. Nothing is ever too much bother, they are fantastic to get booked in for appointments and even urgent ones at no notice. They always have a smile and a chat. Absolutely wouldn't put the care of our beloved little dog in anyone else's hands. Thank you team x

Paid £600 for a practise recommended keyhole spay as apparently recovery was fast and easier. Went to pick my dog up and she was presented to me very excited and jumping around in the treatment room on a long lead which I thought was strange post op but assumed maybe it was normal. Was informed then that she needed to avoid jumping and be gently lifted on sofa etc which I found strange considering she was doing that at the time. Got her home and she started to bleed extremely heavily through one of the glued incisions and I ended up rushing her to out of hours vets. If I hadn't have found someone to stem the bleeding I'm not sure she would have survived the trip. I have now been left with a £1000 vet bill for the out of hours care as the insurance wont pay out. Vets4Pets claim it was an "incidental" event and wont renumerate me anything. Very dissatisfied and upset with this treatment and the trauma my little dog endured.

The team have always fitted my cats in at last minute and been kind and compassionate. When one sadly died unexpectedly, I was heavily pregnant and really distraught and the team kindly offered to review my other cat to reassure me that she was fine. I then recieved some paw prints and a lovely card in the post. Great team.
