Great vets, who saw my little cross breed dog as an emergency today. Treatment given and a follow up appointment in the week. Great service. Thank you!

I’ve been ripped off here. I came in to buy two Milbemax tablets (I travel all over the world, and the cost has never exceeded $20 per dog); when I went to pay, I was told £36—which is the standard price—so I didn't think twice about it. Once I had Wi-Fi again, I discovered they had charged me £136 for the two pills, which is clearly a mistake. I’ve tried contacting them, but instead of refunding the £100, they insist that’s their rate. I want to make it clear that there was no consultation, nor did they provide a receipt. Now I’m going to try to dispute the charge.

I have had great service in the past. With vets being thorough and kind to us and our pets. But our last visit the vet's attitude was arrogant and her knowledge of the guidance for taking our dog overseas was incorrect. She told us the DEFRA guidance and the border control people were wrong and she was right. If we had followed her advice we would not have been allowed to travel for our family holiday.

Always been so happy with the way my pets, first dog then cat, have been looked after. Everyone so caring, it's lovely. And they are an independent practice, not a money-grabbing chain!

Due to a debilitating illness, we made the heart breaking decision to have our beautiful elderly spaniel, Tess, put to sleep. I cannot thank Alex & Sally enough for their compassion and making Tess’s last few minutes of passing away calm & dignified. Thank you again for your professionalism on an extremely traumatic day for my family.

Abbey Green Vets are outstanding. Our family Labradors have always been looked after by them. The care is fantastic. It is clear that the team all love animals and are skilled and compassionate. We sadly lost our 11 year old lab suddenly recently. She was looked after by vet Alex and veterinary nurse Sally. Both Alex and Sally were incredible; compassionate and understanding. It was a great comfort to know our girl was in their capable and loving hands. If you are looking for a local vets, I cannot recommend Abbey Green highly enough.
