Dan, Rachel and their team have cared for our precious pets for many years now and they are by far the best vets we have ever used. Their knowledge & skills make them outstanding, the really care for the animals and way the pets are greeted before we are is lovely. I would highly recommend County Vets.

Get you pets fixed here when they break. I thought my hamster had broke, but it turned out he just needed a slight change of diet and of course, more cuddles. I’m glad to say he’s as right as rain now.

My dog wasn't himself, County Vets got him in first thing Monday. By Tuesday afternoon he was as good as new. They managed to identify the issue and get him treated so quickly. The service as a customer and as a pet owner was top drawer. They communicated every single process and I just knew he was in the right hands. All the staff were lovely and friendly. I recommend them highly.

A veterinary practice that has been very good with our cats over the last few years. Friendly and knowledgeable staff who, in our experience, are quick with a smile, efficient and provide a great service. The only down side is the slightly small waiting area...although that hasn't been a problem during covid as we have had to wait in the car for the staff to come out to meet us in the car park, which they have seemed more than happy to do! Definitely recommended.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Exceptional, skilled vets and friendly efficient nurses and reception team. I can't fault the treatment, care and support my beloved Wolf (and myself) have received over nearly 15yrs. He threw a fair few veterinary challenges at them, and each one was met with the same attention to detail and knowledge. When the end came, I was shown such kindness and compassion. I cannot thank you all enough and wouldn't hesitate (and have done often),to recommend CVC to anyone. Definitely 5 + 🌟

All three of our much loved cats have received nothing but the best treatment from this team of vets, nurses and reception staff. We've received clear advice and sensitive support when the time came for two of the cats to be put to sleep (aged about 16-17 years). The one cat who is still alive is diabetic and so needs special diet, insulin injections and regular blood tests. She also needs to stay in the cattery when we're away so that she can be fed and given insulin at the proper times. We can only praise the team and thank them for their help, support and treatment over the last 15 years or more.
