I can’t thank The staff and especially my vet Nuno enough, recently my little Westie Poppy was diagnosed as being diabetic, to say I was heartbroken and extremely upset was an understatement. The anxiety I felt having to inject my girl twice daily put me in fear... however all the staff at the surgery but I. Particular Nuno have provide support understanding which has enabled me to cone to terms with my routine. nothing is too much whether it be a phone call for reassurance to the girls on reception or the nursing staff but no words are enough to describe how grateful I am to have the wonderful vet Nuno looking after Poppy to say he is amazing is an an understatement . So a big thank you to everyone at the surgery you are all fantastic 😊

We went to Vets 4 Pets this morning at 8.30 as soon as they opened as my dog had a bite to his ear and it wouldn't stop bleeding. I thought losing blood would be classed as an emergency. We were told that he couldn't be seen as they had no appointments until 9.20. In the meantime his ear was still non stop bleeding. We hurried him to Downes who saw him immediately without an appointment and resolved the problem efficiently. Thank you Downes Vet Care.

After a horrendous time at Downes last year my cat was booked in with head vet Nuno. I was ready to leave the practice until meeting this wonderful vet. He is what every vet should be, gentle, caring and in the job for the love of animals! My cat is usually petrified after visiting the vets, today she is not phased at all after meeting Nuno and his gentle hand. Also wonderful not to be judged for my own health problems and made to feel safe and taken seriously for the first time ever at this practice. I will be requesting Nuno every time my cat needs treatment now, I hope he never leaves! Thank you!

We would like to say a massive thank you to Nuno and team for saving the life of our beloved dog Candy. Last week , Candy became extremely ill very suddenly. Nuno managed to see her immediately and carried out a life saving operation which we were worried that she would not come through because of her age. One week later and she is back to her normal self, crazy as ever and back to playing with our other dog! Words cannot express how grateful we are! Thank you so so much!

Lovely service. My dog is very nervous but received great care and attention. We were well informed of all costs involved and as an owner felt very comfortable and confident

Have been taking our animals to this vets practise for over 30 years, I wouldn’t trust or go to any other. I know my animals are well looked after, nothing other then the best care and advise is given.xx (I rate full stars)

Great service expert advises. DR Biddle certainly knows her job well. Her attitude and professional advise was spot on. I felt the practise certainly benefits from her expert knowledge. They're very lucky to have her as there surgeon. She considers people's feelings which is very important.

Did not use the vets ourselves however you can tell they have a real passion for animals. They took in a stray cat that my family has grown very fond of and would like to adopt. Looked after her until word spread back to us that she was there and safe. Cant thank them enough.
