Little Hoppers Vets - Five Oak Green

I attended Little Hoppers today with my very nervous rescue vizsla. She was due a pain meds review and whilst there I also discovered an annual vaccine was overdue. We saw Michael, who was utterly brilliant with her. He was really empathetic to my dogs history of abuse, and dealt with her in a really compassionate and professional manner. Not pushing to give the vaccine then and there when she became unsettled. He went on to offer detailed advice on the options we had going forward, and recommended I took a few days to have a think about what he had suggested. I left feeling like this practice really values patient care over profits.

I used to take our dogs to a vet in Cranbrook which closed and moved too far away to be useful. Our dog hurt her foot and the lovely receptionist at Little Hoppers managed to squeeze our dog in quickly even though we weren’t registered with them yet. On arrival, she helped us get signed up for the monthly per health programme which meant we got 10 percent off our consultation. Dr Sara was absolutely lovely with our dog Nina. In every other vets I have taken her to, she has been so anxious that the vet put a muzzle on her. This was the first time that she hasn’t been muzzled at the vet, even though she was in a lot of pain and distress. She immediately felt safe with Dr Sara and even went and nuzzled her hand. I was so impressed with the gentleness of Dr Sara. And she gave us an option that wasn’t the most invasive and most expensive option to try first, before going for the more invasive solution. So glad to be signed up here and feel relieved to have a such great vets on our doorstep.

So glad I contacted this practice re: my Greyhound's dental issues. I always opt for independent practices (where possible). Sara was so lovely to both myself & my dog. She explained things really thoroughly, I instantly trusted her. I've picked my boy up today after his dental procedure and can't praise her and the practice enough. Thank You for looking after him so well 🙏

Went to this practice on recommendation for Springer approaching 13. Absolutely lovely team. Nurses explain everything really clearly. Max cost explained in detail but final bill was less than max. Complex surgery carried out expertly. then post op care very carefully explained. Extremely caring practice.

Little Hoppers have been brilliant since transferring to them from our previous vets, our 16 year old dog is on a particular medication and Little Hoppers went above and beyond to find her medication despite it being out of stock everywhere! We are really grateful for their help so far and huge thank you for making our little lady so happy! Big shout out to Hayley and Gemma x

Best vets I have ever joined! Took our cat to have him neutered and they looked after him so well! Receptionists were lovely and the vet explained everything simply and clearly! Such a lovely bunch, like a little family who really go the extra mile to care for your pet. Definitely would recommend 😄
