Max is always so well cared for when he visits. I am very anxious about him because of his history but i was kept well informed throughout his last visit and I always feel reassured he is receiving first class care by all at the surgery!

Always very professional and caring. The most wonderful staff, always making a fuss of our boy when he has to come in, so he usually enjoys his visits! Empathetic and patient with owners too, as I am a very anxious owner and can sometimes be very worried and upset and ask lots of questions about things. Thank you to all the staff for all you have done, and continue to do for our Max.

Everyone at the surgery is really nice and friendly. I feel very confident that my cat is being well looked after. It can be very stressful dropping your pet off and not being able to go in with them, but everyone is doing amazing at the communication and keeping us calm.

I have only been to Downes recently after our little dog was given a sad diagnosis. Everyone at Downes including reception staff are exceptional especially vet Nuno. Unfortunately we lost Bambi on Monday and vet Fran was very empathetic. They were all very kind during a traumatic time. I cannot recommend enough. Especially during Covid we were allowed in to say goodbye. When we are ready we will get another rescue dog and Downes will be our go to vet.
