Staff are lovely. Opening hours are unreliable, went today to pick up my dogs flea and worm treatment and it was closed even though they told me on the phone they would be open all week at reduced hours

Couldn't have been better. My cat was examined thoroughly and carefully by the vet at her appt for her annual vacination and examination. The vet handled my cat so well that she (the cat) stayed calm all the time.

Abercorn Vets are the best. It was a routine visit for my cat yesterday for her booster. The Gilmerton branch is the closest and where we normally go for routine appointments. The branch is small but very friendly and the vets and reception staff are always happy to see everyone, pet or their human.

Have been attending Abercorn Vets with our pets for many years (mainly Gilmerton and on rare occasions Portobello). Always found the staff to be polite, friendly and welcoming whilst the vets themselves were totally professional showing concern and understanding not just for the animals, but for the owners as well. Thank you.

We moved from Potobello to Gilmerton area and were able to stay with Abercorn vets. The office at Gilmerton is very small but ideal for us to take our dog for his check ups and vaccines. The vet we saw was friendly, relaxed and appreciated that our dog is a drama queen so you have to tell him if your going to touch his tummy. Great understanding of our dog.
