A friendly, accessible and really approachable veterinary service - it's such a relief to find vets who take the time to care for the small animals and pets we love and who think of owners and their worries too! Old fashioned courtesy and kindness work side-by-side with modern, highly professional treatments and superb animal care - a great combination!

I had my dog in for her yearly vaccine. Roxy is very anxious, the vet was very good at calming her down and waiting until she was ready before examining her and giving her her vaccine.

Wonderful lady vet who humanly put my beloved old dog to sleep and transported him for cremation. I will always be grateful for her kindness.

Great vets. Very pleasant and helpful veterinary staff. Usually can get an appointment very quickly and all queries dealt with efficiently. If something further needs doing will be done with their branch in Maghera. Easier to pay than some other vets. Love the relaxed, family feel of this vets practice. Each animal is treated as a VIP.
