    Not sure if they are a good vets or not. It seems there is a lack on communication or staff not doing what they should because after taking time registering and being told all sorted, I still wasnt actually registered. Emails and messages back and forth, taking up even more time for something that should have been done in the first instance, still no luck. Yet other vets, dead simple, I give my info and straight away im registered regardless of who answers the phone or emails that day. Im really unsure of why its been so hard? Im just glad I havnt needed a vet in this time. I gave up and registered with another.

    Jade came out to our yearling Kyogo today, it was an emergency call out and were all very shaken up with how we found our baby in the field. Jade was polite, courteous and did a very good job! We couldn’t have wished for a better vet on a very difficult day. Andrew also visited our other yearling Diego two weeks prior he was also very polite, very informative explained everything to us well sadly it wasn’t the outcome any of us wanted but we couldn’t have had better help and support. Many thanks, Louise & Mya Home Farm

    The team have been great with my pet sheep Thumper. He's been battling a granuloma in his toe and it's been cut away and treated twice, it was chronic and returned. I asked if toe removal was an option and within a week Stuart and Danny came to do the procedure. Everything was explained very well to me, including what to expect afterwards, which is great and stopped me worrying. I have also had my goats and pigs treated for various things before and always a great service. The reception staff are also lovely!

    It seems every member of staff is excellent. Really quick response time in and out of hours. I've used these guys for 5+ years and can't speak highly enough. For goats, horses and donkeys they have excelled.
