Folly Gardens Veterinary Clinic - Cheltenham

I brought my dog a few years ago for an ear infection. Due to the size of her breed I was told she had to go under GA, a few hundred ££ later, all was fine. Since moving to another vets and repeatedly having the same problem, they have provided me with steroid drops, administered an anti bacterial/ anti fungal medication in her ear that has all worked the same. So much cheaper, equally as efficient, and not putting her at risk by going under GA. I’m not sure why these treatments were never previously offered to me, and was always prompted to use ear cleaners. We all know it’s a money making scheme, but I’d like to avoid my dog going under GA at all costs if this can be avoided with a simple treatment. I always found the other vet (retired now) quite rude too, no soft talking to my dog, and rather abrupt.

The cheltenham branch has been closed for months and reopening is delayed. They have a 200% markup on nexgard treatment unless you use their health plan.

Lovely lovely staff. Very caring

Used to be great but sadly gone very downhill since being purchased by Linnaeus, with staff shortages and reduced opening hours, treatment costs going up significantly. Glad we decided to move vets when we did as they’ve just announced a 16 week closure of the Cheltenham branch.
