This evening we had our precious cat of 19yrs put to sleep. Vaughan and his staff were excellent. So compassionate and caring and allowed us time at the end to say our goodbyes without being rushed or pressured.

Just registered with the new vets. We were very impressed following our first meeting. Booked 2 of our dogs for their routine checks.
Response from the owner:We look forward to meeting them all again after their intro visit (hopefully not too often if they can stay out of mischief)

Mika with her pretty bandages after 2, interdigital cysts were removed. The operation went well and the care has been wonderful. Everything is explained carefully and the estimated price for her op came out exactly as predicted. Mika is healing well, thank goodness! Great work Vaughn and thank you!!
