An excellent vets offering all the services you would expect plus a few more. The staff obviously…read morecare deeply for the animals and soon come to know the names of many of their patients. The best service they offer in my opinion is the puppy club on Saturday mornings, an experience never forgotten for you or your dog. About 20 puppies of various sizes get together to socialize the dogs - to cut out aggression towards other dogs as they get older - so you can imagine how mad it sometimes gets and how many paper towels are used as they all get excited. They tend to split into 2 groups of larger and smaller breeds in seperate rooms and have a free play time then usually some sort of talk / discussion about dag ownership, there was also a visit by a specialist dog trainer on one of our mornings. The dogs love it, the owners love it and all the kids love it - children are encouraged to come along too and have great fun meeting all the different breeds and characters. The only downside is cost - although the puppy sessions only cost about £2 per week, on top of all the other costs of a new puppy and the encouragement to buy accesories / food from the vets it can become an expensive business

My dog had a bone stuck in his throat. It took the vet 3 visits and a week to find it! We had…read morexrays, numerous exams, etc. I asked if it could be stuck in his throat on day 2 (second visit). No, he'd be pawing at his throat. If it were my dog, I'd wait it out. Right. It was stuck in his throat. Found by a different vet (same practice) on a second set of xrays since they didn't xray his throat the first time. £500 and three visits later, we were referred to an emergeny vet for removal (another £1,700). The emergency vet asked why we waited so long and explained that complications were more likely now. Grrwe won't be going back. Don't waste your time or money here.

Women need to be very careful when attending the Sedgefield practice alone! I had to take my Mams…read moredog here while dog sitting as I couldn't get an appointment at her usual vet. When I arrived I fully explained her medical history and usual successful treatment which the vet quickly dismissed and ignored. He administered additional treatment without consulting me first. When I rang my mam to pay over the phone she asked why additional treatment had been required. At this point the vet became very hostile and aggressive on the phone and refused to speak to my mam anymore. After payment his behaviour towards me escalated he started shouting that he wouldn't have his skills questioned by anyone, I calmly explained this wasn't the case and he started shouting louder while gesturing and lunging towards me. At this point I left quickly as I feared for my own safety. After both myself and my mam made a formal complaint to clifton lodge about his behaviour l have not received an apology or any sort of response and my mam got a letter from them stating we should have informed them if cost was an issue which we had both already stated was not the issue, they also said 'sorry if you felt the vet was rude'. So once again clifton lodge the issue was not cost and your vet was not rude he was aggressive and I genuinely believe that he could be dangerous. Women should never feel that they are not safe to go somewhere alone and I would advise if any Women have to attend your practice they take someone with them if they are unable to go elsewhere. All this because someone simply asked about the treatment that been given to THIER dog! I can't imagine what he could potentially do to a woman who had actually 'questioned his skills'.

I took my 12 year old collie x Chico to Wendy at King's Road Vets as he had been off his food (very…read moreserious for him!) and extremely 'wobbly' and disorientated over the previous 12 hours. By the time I took him to the vets I was convinced that Chico had suffered a stroke and there was no recovering from this. Wendy and her team (I think Helen and Natalie were the staff on duty) could not have been more reassuring and professional. Whilst explaining everything in english (rather than medical words I can't understand) they continued to reassure Chico & calm him despite his obvious distress. I was talked through every procedure that was carried out (blood tests, urine tests and x-rays which they even showed me)and also had the costs explained to me in advance so that there were no nasty surprises at the end of his treatment. Wendy and her team were very thorough & were so patient with me during my many phonecalls asking how my boy was doing! He's back home now, and although I don't know how much longer he'll be with me, I'm confident he's in good hands and will never take him to any other vet. I've just registered both my other dogs with King's Road too. Highly recommend them. In short they really do deliver what they promise. My boy was treated with absolute respect and care, and I was kept informed at every stage.

Both the Surgeons and Nurses are wonderful and even our little scared-y cat relaxes whenever she's around them. They offer brilliant advise both over the phone and in person, are never late for appointments and are open late so you don't necessarily have to take time off work to visit. The surgery is clean and hygenic so there's no worry of infection being caused by the surroundings. The prices are about standard of vets that I have visited and we have not been charged for follow-up appointments following our cats being neutered earlier in the year.
