Our successful, 10-vet, independent practice is based in three well-equipped surgeries: our hospital in Tunbridge Wells (which provides 24-hour care for our patients), a stand-alone surgery in Crowborough and a smaller surgery in Wadhurst. All of our surgeries have operating facilities, multi-parameter monitors and up to date labs. Our kit also includes dental x-ray, modern ultrasound machines and digital x-ray. We are a host practice for Vets Now and our hospitalised animals receive 24-hour care.

Our vet team has a good mix of experience and clinical interests and includes certificate holders and people studying for certificates. We have a large team of experienced vet nurses who thrive on being given freedom to nurse.

Our practice has been around for nearly 80 years and we have fantastic clients.

Location
