Absolutely disgusted with every experience I’ve had with st David’s vets from our frenchie being a puppy. they messed up her vaccines so she had to have them all twice and whilst getting these done tried to scare us into booking a operation she didn’t need saying she needed an operation on her nose to be able to breath better she has never had any issues breathing. Yesterday I brought her in due to her back causing her pain due to playing to rough with my parents frenchie when brought in they told me it was a trapped nerve and for her to have crate rest for 2 weeks and painkillers and anti inflammatory medication I had to ask the vet for an injection to help the pain quicker and they have put it on her notes that it’s early IVDD due to her being a frenchie she was showing no signs of IVDD no limping no dragging her back legs or no issues walking now due to this being on her file we are unable to take out insurance on her as no one will cover her with this on her file even though the vet told me to take out insurance on her make that make sense absolutely disgusted with the service from start to finish and the lady at reception is blunt and rude when you call I believe they’re just trying to get as much money out of you as possible and would not recommend frenchie owners to go to this vets!!!

Great vets but i can not give full marks like i once would of as sadly like most vet places now, it is money what comes first over the pets, even if got pet insurance.. Would of given more than best stars before if could, but sadly can not now. Will still give 4 as think still lot better than most vets for care once given and are friendly staff, and generally nice friendly reception team, just not as understanding or caring as used to be sadly. But at least aware of the changes proper now. My dog loves going there though as he is odd like that 😂🙃

Words simply cannot describe how amazing this Veterinary practice is and all the staff. I went at the start of January and after my cat fell down the stairs and hit his head. He received a full check over along with a nail clipping and some also shaving off his matted fur. The care and consideration for my cat, especially in his old age and after the no doubt truma inducing event for him, was above and beyond. Thank you for looking after my little lad and making sure he was okay. We are both extremely thankful for your kindness.

I cannot speak highly enough of this veterinary practice. I sadly rescued a seagull out of the road on Christmas Day who had been hit and broken its wing. I was concerned if anyone would be open on Christmas Day to help me. I spoke to a lovely lady on the phone who was incredibly positive throughout and said to come down whenever I could. When I arrived I was greeted by the same lady who was on the reception. I was then assisted by a lovely gentlemen who came outside to help me. Unfortunately his wing was broken so he was to be euthanised but the lovely vet explained to me as he examined what he would do and this comforted me greatly. Amazing, considerate team. Efficient, professional and compassionate. Thank you for caring guys, you’re a credit to the organisation.

I had to have my elderly jack russell taken in as an emergency in the early hours of sunday morning, Oliver the vet on duty was extremely kind and caring to my little dog and family who were with him. Sadly Oliver had to put my little dog to sleep, which he did with so much dignity and compassion, i will be forever grateful. I truly cannot thank him enough.

i unfortunately had to bring my senior cat in as an emergency to be put to sleep and the team here were so supportive. every staff member i spoke to was so kind, helpful , friendly and understanding and gave me plenty of time to say goodbye. they treated my beautiful girl with such respect and were so gentle and patient with her, they explained the whole process thoroughly, gave me plenty of time to make the necessary decisions and be with her, and made her as comfortable as possible in her final hours. i can’t thank the team enough for being so wonderful to us in such a difficult time, even dealing with other patients too they were so efficient and helpful, and i would definitely recommend this practice. thank you x
