Company

We are an independent, non-corporate practice which aims to provide a friendly and professional service to our clients, excellent standards of care for our patients and a happy working environment for our employees. Continuity of care is especially important to us and we have a dedicated team of veterinary surgeons, registered veterinary nurses, student veterinary nurses, veterinary care assistants, receptionists and a practice manager.

Our veterinary team includes some of the most qualified and experienced vets in the local area, including vets with Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) Certificates in Cardiology, Small Animal Medicine and Small Animal Surgery. They also hold Advanced Practitioner status, which is a further qualification awarded by the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons when an individual has undertaken further study in a particular area of clinical practice. This level of expertise means your pet can receive the very best treatment all within one practice.

We are an approved training centre for student veterinary nurses, indicating our commitment to staff development and a continued appraisal of our services and facilities. Many of our nurses trained with us to become qualified, and some have even gone on to achieve RCVS Diploma status which is the highest nursing qualification possible.

The practice has excellent facilities, allowing us to achieve the highest standards of care possible, and we have accreditation from the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) Practice Standards Scheme.
