We are a very small RCVS GP accredited companion animal practice set up 10 years ago to offer an alternative to the corporate model of practice. Our intention is and always has been to remain small, so for the last 8 years we have operated a new client waiting list to remain true to our aims and values.
Our experienced and stable team aim to provide an individualised, holistic and open-minded approach to our super, very loyal, long-term clients and their pets. We like our clients and their pets, and will we always go that extra mile to help them.
Our quality of service is reflected in our 5* google reviews.
