Customer reviews

I was turned away with an emergency by 3 vets within the area, after calling Woodend fitted me in with an appointment within half an hour. They rectified an issue that another vet caused and booked me on for a follow up. I was in distress and they tried their best to resolve the issue offering me assistance. I am beyond grateful.
Ash Grey
Everyone here made us feel very welcome and my Lakeland Terrier was treated with so much kindness with pats of her head before her treatment. My other dog Josh also a Lakie was allowed in with his little sister as they don't like being separated. Everything was explained fully, and at last my terriers have found their forever vet. They also seemed less stressed today as their anxiety was relieved by the very pleasant surroundings.
Linda Booker
Recently had to put my cat down and they were incredibly kind, nurturing and just created a beautiful peaceful dignified space for my Prudles. Thank you to all staff.
