A wonderful, extremely busy, lone vet examined my cat, gave advice and medication in a friendly, professional and compassionate manner. I really felt quite sorry for him as I knew he'd been exceptionally busy operating on other pets, as my appointment had been delayed twice. More than understandable given the circumstances. Me and, especially my cat, were both very grateful. The reception staff on the phone and at the desk were lovely, efficient and got me an appointment very quickly. I'm just so pleased to have a vet practice so close to home, which avoids traffic jams on the Mancunian Way to my former vet's practice. The result is a cat who is less stressed whilst travelling the short distance.

After a bad experience at a different veterinary surgery I was recommended to go here and I’m so glad I did! The vet was amazing at explaining everything to me along with offering much needed reassurance and the girls on reception are lovely. I left feeling confident that my dog would receive the best possible care here and that they care about her as much as I do ❤️

I came to the vets as I found a bird that was injured. I didn’t really know what to do and all of the staff were extremely helpful in advice and ended up taking the bird to the wildlife centre themselves. I’m registering my dog here because that’s the care you need to give to animals
