We have been to many vets before we moved to the area. I always felt like the vets didn't care it was all a money racket. They pumped our dog full of expensive medication hoping something would work. This is not the case at this practice. Every vet we have seen managed to keep the dog calm while injecting her or prodding at her. They explain why they are doing what they are doing. They don't jump straight to every medication that could be used to treat similar symptoms. Like you would diagnose a human, they proceed with a process of elimination. We (and our bank balance) like this approach. I highly recommend this practice if you are looking for excellent care for your pet.

A brilliant practice - highly recommended! We were forced…read moreto find a vet for our Billi whilst on holiday, as he wouldn't stop vomiting and was in severe pain. Not only did the Animal Health Centre help us quickly and competently (and Billi was back to happily jumping around on his lead and enjoying his holiday after just a few days), but we also felt exceptionally warmly welcomed and understood. Even Billi, who is usually very shy, was able to relax during the treatment. Unfortunately, this is hard to find these days; we wish you were in Austria too! Many thanks to Ludwig and the team.

All the staff are wonderful, polite & friendly, cheery, & very knowledgeable…read more They are very respectful to their animal clients, and we have used them from anything from our dogs and cats, to a cockatiel, our horses and our stud guinea pigs. They have modern up to date equipment, decent sized waiting room, nice dispensary. Reasonably priced, and very trustworthy. The best vetinary service we have had, and we have tried other practices locally. Cant fault them and the staff all make a potentially very distressing time, easier to deal with. We have our full confidence in all the team of vets, vet nurses, receptionists etc, and highly recommend them.

My Dog Tiffany and I were lucky to have 15 years together. Tiffany was a tiny Yorkshire terrier…read morethat I brought here from New York when I moved to Donaghadee. I knew the day would come when I would have to say goodbye to her and I dreaded that day. When Tiffany got ill I brought her to Dr Michael Watts and he immediately made a connection with her and with me. He is not the "white coat" vet I'm used to and I felt he was the most genuine, honest and down to earth vet I ever met. He was soft spoken, kind and caring. For a week I came every day to his clinic and he watched over Tiffany, evaluated her and gave her medication to ease her pain. When a week went by and her condition started to spiral downwards, Dr Watts was honest and softly told me, " it's time to say good bye" - words I knew were coming but did not want to hear. Although I took her home one last time, I realized I could not let her suffer any more and I called Dr Watts. He immediately cleared his schedule and I came to his clinic. He gave me the time to spend with her and when the moment was right he gave her pain relief and she went to sleep in my arms, like she always loved to do and had done for the past 15 years. I know the passing of Tiffany was unavoidable, however I felt lucky that her last moments were in the hands of Dr Watts. I will never forget his kind, professional and gentle ways and the sense he gave me that my dog was in good hands and I couldn't ask for a better ending to the most beautiful and loving dog, Tiffany. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU Dr Michael Watts.

A young assistant had lifted Honey and took to the back room to wash her ears and put some drops in. Mr Lavery is very kind and understands how you feel about handing your little companion over. There is nothing that is to much trouble and you are always met with a smile and a welcome. I certainly would praise them to anyone. The best in town. Helen

That man who calls himself a vet told us the same exact advice for each one (all had different cases of injury) and we lost all 3; one dog and two young cats. My anger for this place, i can't even express across this review, if you love your pets please for the love of god do not take them here. This man clearly has lost his care/passion for animals otherwise these deaths would've been preventable and he would've at least told us the risks to help them in the end. Collins vet is truly the worst vet i've ever experienced and honestly i think an investigation should be opened about this place because i know damn well other people have similar stories about this horrendous place. The cheap prices aren't worth it, folks.

Last year id spotted a cat in the neighbourhood that looked like a stray and it was shaking and fitting and I picked it up and drove it straight to the vets, it turned out it had been poisoned and wasn't chipped , it was a male cat and didn't need neutered. It pulled through and the vets told me to take it back to where I found it and let it go. I see it sometimes about the place and it looks like its looked after. Relived I didn't end up getting a bill for it , they know me from being in every year though with my mums cat. There's a small shop with pet accessories and foods and my last time there was a cat asleep in one of the pet beds in the shop bit, I thought it was a teddy for a while but it is apparently the resident cat.
