avoid these vets all interested in is cash .... over a year they looked at our dog and he got worse, told fluid on leg, then cancer nowt can do after taking over 700 pounds . best put to sleep wait ill see how much and wene, went to another vets had better care told tuma yes can save him but will loose his leg so if abbeys had done job right and picked up on this dog would be ok please avoid go to another vets rips off all want is money not animal care,

Our cat is now petrified of being in the cat carrier after last visit here where we were the only cat owners in a puppy vaccination session, plus other dogs coming in. Our cat was so terrified he wet himself.
No separate slots for dog and cat owners or areas.
We now have to deal with a petrified cat whenever we take him to places like the cattery now and he wets himself in fear thinking he's going back to the vets.
Will be moving to a different practise after this experience, very poor!

They've been very good with both of our dogs and all three of our rabbits. Cannot fault care given. I keep recommending them to other Frenchie owners as I believe they have a specialist at their Barnsley branch who was fantastic with our Frenchie's BOAS surgery.

Insensitive to owners and pets.

I took my pup here for a castration procedure, I was happy with how booking him in went all very friendly and reassuring. It then came to picking him up after the operation.....

Receptionist was rude and not very informative, told me to wait where I stood. I completely understand they have to do this due to covid but she never gave me any information on how my dog was doing or gave me any idea on how long I would be waiting (my appointment was for 5pm) it had already passed this time. 25 minutes I waited listening to my dog cry for me it was heartbreaking and unacceptable ! Payment taken before I even laid eyes on my pet.... no consideration for the owners or pets feelings. The appointments should be staggered to avoid this and to stick with government guidelines, but obviously get as many in and out for the maximum profit is their mind set.... I’ve used this company for years and never had a problem but this one I can’t forgive. I shall be changing to a different vet, I definitely wouldn’t recommend.

Took our dog to be put to sleep yesterday . Vet wasn't too bad but I nearly fell over when it came to paying . 200 pounds ! Couldn't believe it . That is for communal cremation ! I am so upset about it but having to have her put to sleep anyway but really think it's awful to charge that much. Whilst waiting for an appointment I asked for some pain relief for her ... 15 pounds for 10 ml of doggy ibuprofen. Whilst she is more important than money I think it is disgraceful that they make so much money out of my misery 😔

Not best pleased! Prices they charge is just ridiculous! £30 for a consultation and £20 fee for our pet to be put to sleep! If we was on benefits it be a different matter! We paid bevause we just didn't want it to suffer any longer! The attitudes towards this was appalling! It's not the welfare of the animal it's the £££ profit from someones grief! Can't even take the 1 star away because they don't deserve that. We will be using another vet in future!

A cat came in before our appointment had been really hurt in an attack and the way the vet and the nurse cared for the owner and pet really was so compassionate. It was easy to see the vet and the nurse really care about the animals. Highly recommend.
