The veterinary professionals here really care. Even in the worst moments for your pet they go out of their way to make sure they do everything to provide the best medical care and they take excellent care of owners too! Phil, Rebecca and the team have spent hours and hours with me and my recently passed dog finding the best solutions, researching new techniques and working with her when she is grouchy and when the time came giving her the kindest most dignified send off. They are always happy to answer questions and never proceed with anything until you understand. I cannot recommend highly enough.

This clinic is in my opinion the best in the country.. Phil is an absolute hero. Unfortunately my beautiful baby bear dexter had to be helped to make his final trip to the rainbow bridge on Saturday.. The compassion Phil and the lady nurse Phil had with him had for dexter was just so lovely. They treated my boy with the upmost respect. Thankx to phil I had another year with dexter that I otherwise wouldn't of had.. all the staff at walk about vets are hero's and I will be forever thankful for them.. most dogs don't like the vets but dexter had a lovely time with you all when he stayed.. thankyou all for your kindness and taking care of my beautiful boy.

Dr Phil came to give our Pomeranian a vaccination today. We were highly impressed with his kind nature, friendliness and professionalism. We are booked in for a spay next week and so glad that we chose this practice.

Took our poorly 14 year old labrador to see the team at Walkabout whilst we were on a short vacation in Leckford. Whilst they had no medical history, everything that was offered to Ella at Walkabout was subsequently repeated by her regular vet at home, so we know the treatment was perfect. Great team. Big shout out to Jayne for being so welcoming and helpful, plus processing the insurance claim promptly. Can't recommend this vets enough.

We have used Walkabout Vet for our last dog. Sadly we recently needed to say farewell to her. Phil, Sarah, the team and their service were nothing short of OUTSTANDING. They made a terribly sad occasion one which could also be special with our dog and they thought of everything afterwards. During her life they had the same fantastic service. She would not go to a vet but Phil always made her feel at ease at home.
