“Wonderful veterinary surgery with staff who you can see have a genuine passion for animals and their roles. Aside from that they are attentive, professional and punctual. We felt very safe and assured in the knowledge and skills of Paul and his follow up emails were greatly appreciated, because they are so helpful for understanding and for after care. Thank you for all of your kind help!”

“Alfie, our 12 year old cockerpoo, had both cruciates repaired by Charlie at Oakwood Vets in 2024. The care he received was second to none and he’s back to being a happy little boy. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Charlie and the team at Oakwood vet referals.”

“I am always impressed with the quality of all aspects of this veterinary practice; the vet nurses on reception are helpful, informed and responsive; bookings are timely and consultations always useful. One of our dogs recently had an operation; the pre- and post op protocols were effective and the operation itself a great success. My thanks to Jamie for developing a really good dependable service”

“Very experienced, lady so gentle with our baby, just following her advice now & waiting on the pups”

“As always, the staff were friendly, helpful and professional throughout our visit. The availability of parking facilities at the .Fairfield consulting rooms is another benefit. The provision of a prescription to suit our specific needs was also appreciated.”

“Great service every single time from this vets. Bella (cat) always gets seen bang on her appointment time which is great. Friendly staff and just fantastic service.”

“The most caring Practice, fantastic with my little dog I couldn't ask for more. I have seen everyone there and they are all wonderful, every one of them.”

“Val and her team have done us proud yet again. From first seeing a lump to successful operation, with histology results, all within two fast weeks. Our Sammy hardly noticed a thing and the old boy is with us for a while longer yet. Cannot thank Val enough.”

“We have been with Armac Vets for over 15 years and the staff and service is brilliant. All our dogs are so well looked after. Highly recommend.”

“Took my dogs to be vaccinated at Grappenhall Veterinary Centre. Greeted by lovely pleasant staff on reception, the surgery smelt lovely when I walked in and was so clean and tidy. Alexa the vet was amazing in the consult and put my mind at rest- we think one of my dogs has a little heart issue and she reassured me on how to treat her going forward. I have complete faith that she will guide me through the next steps and I know that she is in safe hands. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Alexa and her team :0)”

“Everything you would want from a vets. The staff are just so lovely and caring. My little Poochon Claude had an op on his leg, they kept us informed on the day and I felt very relaxed leaving him in their care. Thank you so much for all you have done for him.”

“My family have been trusting Holly House Vets to care for our pets for over 30 years. Now I have a dog of my own we have continued to do so and they have been amazing with our little lady Priya. All the staff are gentle and kind to the animals whether they are in for a routine health check or to undergo a procedure which can be a worrying time for the owners. I would highly recommend them.”

“We couldn’t recommend Ark Vets more highly. From the moment you walk in, you’re met with kindness, professionalism, and a genuine sense of care that goes above and beyond. The whole team is outstanding, but we especially want to thank Dr. David and Dr. Beth for the incredible dedication they’ve shown to our dogs over the years. They always take the time to listen, explain, and guide us with warmth and clarity — no question is ever too small, and you never feel rushed. Their knowledge and clinical skill are second to none, and we’ve always felt completely confident and safe in their hands. Nurse Katie also deserves a special mention — she is one of the kindest, most compassionate people we’ve met. Her gentleness, reassurance, and care have made such a difference, especially during some of the most difficult times with our pets. You can tell how much she truly loves the animals, and that brings so much comfort. Ark Vets supported us all the way through one of our boxer’s chemotherapy — always there when we needed advice or urgent appointments. When he sadly passed, they contacted us personally to offer support, which meant the world to us. On another occasion, they stayed late after hours to perform an emergency surgery, so we didn’t have to travel to an unfamiliar out-of-hours clinic. That kind of dedication is rare. What sets Ark Vets apart is not just their clinical excellence, but their heart. They are skilled, trustworthy, and compassionate. We have complete faith in them, and we wouldn’t take our dogs anywhere else. Thank you, Ark Vets, for everything you do — we’re so grateful.”

“Tameside Vets Droylsden are amazing. We are always given a warm welcome when we arrive. We have 3 furbabies (Cats) and each appointment for health checks and annual vaccination’s go smoothly due to the lovely attention the vet gives to each of them, making the cats as well as myself feel at ease. Thank you.”

“Our dog had a mysterious limp which turned out to be elbow dysplasia. We had a few appointments with Steve at MVS referred over from our usual vet. Steve was professional and personable, thorough with his assessment and set out a number of options but without pushing any in particular so we could make the choice we felt was appropriate. We’d definitely go back. Shout out to the friendly staff on reception too, who makes things run smoothly behind the scenes.”

“Great vets, always look after our pets brilliantly”

“Always grateful for the excellent service and advice given when visiting Broken Cross vets with our dog. The reception staff are friendly and welcoming. (He loves his treats each visit too.) Highly recommended.”

“I just want to say thank you to the vets for taking care of my buddy Ozzy on his last night on this cosmic rock. I live up in Newcastle so sadly I was not down here when my parents took him in. However I came to collect his ashes today and it made me happy to see how much the staff cared about everyone’s pals who get brought in and the love they have for pets even if it was a short interaction, I am glad he was in loving hands at the end. Thank you for the card and paw prints too it means a lot to me and my family who are spread around the world who couldn’t be here at this time. I know he visited a few times over the years, he was always taken great care of. Finally thank you for the beautiful packaging of the ashes, I will be taking them up north to the cliffs he was last with all of my family. Thank you again and for anyone looking for the right vets, these are the one.”

“Just want to say a big thank you to Chloe. I was really nervous about bringing my kitten Kiki for her jabs today because she found her last jab very painful, which was upsetting. Chloe was absolutely amazing with Kiki. Her manner was so kind and caring and she managed to distract her and do the jab without her feeling a thing. I was so impressed and so grateful. A big relief. Thank you so much!! Xx”
