We have been with Downes Medivet for a number of years. Have always found them very helpful and treat our animals well. Particularly recommend the current vet, Michael who deals very patiently with our difficult dog.

Vet was wonderful. He suggested I sign up to their plan to save money on ongoing medication my cat needs, I am always sceptical of this sort of thing but it actually saves me so much money each month (and I get other benefits) that it’s totally worth it. He is friendly, caring and very professional. Appointments are always on time. Reception staff are so lovely as well. Totally recommend this practice.
