While on holiday in Langcliffe our 13year old border collie became unwell. On calling the vets the lovely Sarah Jane on reception thankfully made us an appointment despite the vets being really busy. The vet gave our dog a thorough examination, went through in detail what the problem could be. We cannot thank you enough for putting our minds at ease. Great service

Massive respect for these guys, took my kitty in last week as she'd come back in injured and limping, took her to the vets next morning receptionists were great was seen within half an hour by the vet 'Guy' absolutely brilliant Vet, thoroughly checked my cat over and booked her in for another check up, explained everything while examining her and didn't try to sell us any unnecessary items, everything he did was in the best interest of my cat, brilliant people and he had genuine compassion. Trusted everything he said and he has put my mind at ease with another check up in a few weeks. 10/10. And again massive respect to Guy 💯👍

I can not put into words how AMAZING the Vets here. I lost my darling Ranger earlier this year and am only ready now to post this review. Karen was the wonderful lady who took such genuine and wonderful care of my little girl. I have no words big enough to show my appreciation. The way she held Ranger was truly so gentle. Plus she was just as thoughtful and caring towards me and my friend. Thankyou so very much. The world is a much nicer world with Vets like Karen. Thankyou again.

This vet went above and beyond with the prompt care needed when our dog broke her leg while we were staying nearby. If we lived nearer i would move all my pets in to their care. It made a terrible experience much better. The costs were explained and adhered to very reasonably as well.
