Such a superb vets. I have a number of pets but the most recent visit I had to make there was for…read moremy dog. He had to have surgery and stay in for a few days and well, he didn't want to come home! They are well cared for and loved by all the staff there. They use their name to make them feel at home. I was given an initial quote which seems very reasonable although after the surgery they said they had complications which then increased my bill which is understandable. It is quite a busy little pratice but they do make room for you if you call for an appointment. There are emergency consultations too. A great vets and the only one I ever go to now.

Elwood and Briggs have been there, not just for our beloved dogs, but for us too, for the past…read moredecade. The care and professionalism that they have shown is second to none. They have seen two of our cherished pets from puppyhood through to that awful last goodbye, and their compassion and support could not be bettered. At one point when we discovered that one of our young Springer Spaniels needed complicated orthopaedic surgery, our fears for the little lad were calmed by realising what incredibly good hands he was in. Everything that Mr Elwood said would happen, did happen, and our boy was given many more years of happy and active life. Even when we moved away for a short time, we still continued to use them and were happy to travel in order for our dogs to keep that wonderful level of care that all the members of the surgery gave them. Frankly if there was a higher star rating available, Elwood and Briggs would get ten out of ten, everytime! Joy Ellis and Jacqueline Parrish

If you do not have thousands of pounds in your account for instant payment don't take your pets…read morehere or rely on them for emergency treatment. Despite the website stating direct claims with insurance companies can be agreed I was told no and payment is required every 24 hours. I challenged the lie we were told by the clinical director and she ignored it. A complaint was raised and I received what appears to be a copy and paste mission statement. Despite being with the vets for 14 years and paying thousands of pounds in bills on time they simply don't care. Money is the one and only focus of this practice and not the pet's immediate care. We have thankfully found a family run practice with the best interests of our pets at heart. To say I'm disgusted is an understatement.

There would never be enough stars I could give Swayne & Partners as they are absolutely fantastic…read more They we're kind and caring with all the animals they see, they took my Teddy in on an emergency late one night with a twisted bowel, the vet was waiting in reception as we arrived and took him off to X-ray him while we were booking him in then came out to tell us they had to operate on him straight away they saved his life and we are so grateful to them all from the vet's, nurses and reception staff they are all so kind and caring. We also had to have our nearly 17 year old jack russell "Jake" put to sleep and once again they did it with kindness and dignity. We would recommend them very very highly. Thank you so very much to you all kind Regards Mr & Mrs Sutton, Teddy and Benson too

I used this surgery all through my childhood/ teenage years and my family still do. They have given my mum huge help through difficult illnesses with her pets. On boxing day before we moved back to the area, our dog ripped her face open in the woods and we used the out of hours emergency service at Swayne and Partners. The vet was absolutely lovely and you wouldn't have known that our dumb mutt had ripped him away from his family! Highly recommended.
