    After issues over treatment of three different dogs over 3 years we have finally left this…read morepractice. The first problem concerned a bad mis-diagnosis in 2017 of my elderly mother's dog on which she doted. Arundells' vet insisted that her problems were related to a build-up of fatty tissue and NOT cancer, as we had suspected. After a subsequent and very expensive MRI scanning procedure at another vet, our fears were shown to be accurate and the dog was finally put to sleep. Our own precious retriever/spaniel cross became ill one night and we had to take him into Bennetthorpe in the early hours of the morning to see what was to be done. I am sure that nothing could have been done to save him, he was 13yrs old, but we felt that over £600 in less than 6 hours was a fairly hefty fee to pick up a dead body. This week our latest and final problem has occurred with our Labrador puppy who has been registered here since June 2019 when we got him at 10 weeks old. It may have been difficult to spot a hip issue at his early health-check and attendance for immunization, but we had an increasing concern that all was not well. He was subsequently castrated (far too young as we are now told, but we were not advised of this by Arundells at the time or we would certainly have re-thought the action). Recently, the arrogance and unhelpful behavior of Arundells' staff was highlighted when we attempted to have them sign off on our Labrador puppy's planned visit to a physiotherapist - what ensued was a veritable circus of poor communication and organization. Ahead of the physio visit, we asked for a consent note from the vet who had seen him last. This was agreed to, but the consent order was wrongly sent for him to be operated on and not for physio. We asked for the proper form to be sent, having booked him in for an appointment that evening. At 5.20pm we received a call from Claire, who warrants a special mention as the self-important 'head receptionist' who apart from being rude and unhelpful refused to send the correct consent order until we had paid for him to be seen again by a vet there. It seems we could have him operated upon, but he wasn't to be permitted a consultation for physiotherapy! Given the time of the return call (5 hours after we had first made the request) there was in any event nobody available at Arundells to see him in time, anyway. Now dealing with the fallout of this encounter, further exploration has shown up a previously undiagnosed issue which we are trying to address - at another vet. All of this is a great shame as we have the utmost respect for the senior vet in this practice, but we would certainly not go back there.

    I love Arundel vets, they've looked after all 3 of our dogs. The staff are great and extremely…read morefriendly, appointments always available and go out if their way to help. Would highly recommend to any pet owner.
