🐾Tips for Pet Owners
- Book routine appointments early and be flexible about visiting another nearby branch if this one is fully booked.
- For urgent issues, call ahead—reviewers report being triaged and seen quickly even when the clinic is busy.
- Ask for an itemised estimate and clarify consult and re‑check fees, as prices aren’t consistently published online.
- Parking is available and the clinic can be busy, so arrive a little early to settle in the waiting area.
- If you have a new puppy, ask about their puppy pre‑school; grooming is also available for dogs.
