Unfortunately the vet we saw I found rude, non informative and judgmental. Due to the lack of clarification on what the potential diagnosis could mean or actions that could be taken, we decided to take our dog to another veterinary practice for further investigations, to which contradicted advice/ diagnosis that we was given by your vet. (Who suggested euthanasia) Hopefully we was just unlucky enough to see this particular vet whilst he was having a bad day perhaps and no other pet owners are made to feel as horrid as I felt after leaving that day

My puppy has some congenital issue which was not spotted by previous VET. We knew nothing until the my puppy was brought to this VET for skin check. I was worrying about the GBP2000 surgery fee. VET there said in our case we are able to claim fully. The VET here turns out speaking to my insurance that we've already know the puppy's congenital issue. The insurance refused to pay a pound. We had emails back and forth but they insist they are correct and made stuff up. The claiming process is opaque. They insist they will be the representative to hand in the claim form. They don't and won't need to talk with you. With so many 1 star reviews, I highly recommend you go for another VET

Used to be a great vets, but now they seem to just chase money. Was quoted £41 just for a minutes consultation to get some prescription medication (and the cost of that on top). This is despite being on the vets scheme. Looking for another vets that aren't ruined by corporate greed.

Used to be the best vets around but they have been taken over recently and now they just don't answer the phone. May be great when you go in but what use is a vet if you can't book an appointment or get in touch with them!

Up until the take over by Medivet, this vets was outstanding. Sadly its now a chaotic unprofessional mess. Firstly, a bill I paid, on the day, in February 2024 remains outstanding on their system and its now almost June. Despite providing a receipt, this has still not been actioned. Secondly, I, have morphed into a rabbit! Surprisingly I now have 3 rabbits on their system, the new one being me! I have told them about this three times, yet I must have very large ears as they are refusing to remove me. Thirdly, I put my rabbit through the stress of being taken to the vets today for his booster. They knew it was for a booster. I was called in by the vet, after waiting, and told they didn't have any vaccines. Well, enough is enough, I've now sourced a new vet and a formal complaint to head office will follow.

I would not recommend this vets anymore (since it became medivet). The vets are quite rude, and we very rarely had anyone pick up the phone. When my cat was dying we couldn’t get through to make an appointment or get through when we decided to move to a new vets and wanted our cats medical notes. Awful service

Our cat has been treated by this vet for 4 years for diabetes and has always received nothing but the best care by becca who previously worked here and now Shannon. She recently had a very dangerous hypoglycaemic episode and the vets have no doubt saved her life and we will be eternally grateful . Yes it is hard to get through on the phone but once you are through the care is amazing.
