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.

First visit as just moved down and really pleased. Poppy and her assistant really fussed over my dog and took their time, explained what was happening and made both of us feel very much at ease. Fantastic

Excellent, professional team. Very polite and friendly, was very comfortable with my dog being in their care. The vet was very experienced, and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this practice! We travel over 45 minutes just to go here, and it is time very well spent :)
