Love this vet. Our puppy is so well cared for by all the staff. It's always such a happy and friendly place to go. We live nearby and often walk past on our regular walks. Our puppy gets so excited when we walk past as she thinks she's going to visit! The advice is always very thorough and I know our puppy's best interests are always at heart. Can't recommend highly enough.

Quality personalised veterinary care.

"We are so happy with these vets! They are fantastic! The vets and nurses are extremely knowledgable, friendly and caring. We love that they are happy to order toys and treats in especially for us. The prices are great and they go above and beyond to help us. We wouldn't take our furbabies anywhere else. We highly recommend them for all of your pet care needs". Katherine.

We are located in a quiet location in Denistone West with easy parking.
