I've had to take my elderly cat a few times to this lovely vets. Hes been seen by different Veterinarians who have all been lovely, gentle and very informative. Recently he had surgery at St Johns and when he woke up there was a concern (due to other medical concerns unrelated) advised on what to do, what to look out for and extra support if needed. I called the next day which was not an inconvenience to them and they expressed they were relieved he was doing better and said that staff were asking after him not long before my call. Honestly I would never go anywhere else! They truly care. Thank you for all you do!

St John’s Vets have been absolutely amazing in looking after my miniature schnauzer, Adonis (Donnie!). The team is incredibly friendly and helpful, always going above and beyond to ensure Donnie receives the best care possible. Their professionalism and genuine love for animals shine through in everything they do. It's such a relief to know that Donnie is in such capable and caring hands. Highly recommend St John’s Vets for their outstanding service and dedication 🥰

Fantastic independent vets. Now they have had to move. I was worried about reaching them. However Lousia the Vet visited us at home and Hearing Dog Harley was giving all his boosters and his half yearly check up. Being deaf its hard for me to communicate so I was given an email so I could contact them. Can't fault the service they supply.
