Advanced dental services address periodontal disease, extractions, and oral infections. We use digital x-rays and modern equipment to prevent systemic health issues from dental bacteria. Annual checks help maintain pets' overall wellbeing.

Thank you so much for your kindness and respect today. Our baby Bella left us today and it was because of the kindness, compassion and professionalism of the staff that it all went so smoothly. My little girl left this world peacefully in my arms and although I was and am devastated, I feel at peace. Thank you, you were all amazing ❤️

Sanford Vet are always so incredibly helpful. If you have questions or concerns about your pet, you can ring them and ask, and they will happily talk you through steps you can do and determine if you need to bring your pet in. They are very welcoming when you go in the clinic and you just know your beloved animal is in good and safe hands. Thanks Sanford Vet.

Everyone at Sanford go out of their way to help and are always friendly. always go that extra bit further so we can all have a good experience too. My dog is the loud mouth stress head and we have always been treated so well. Today in particular where everyone was super busy and there was a lot going on, but as always he was looked after exceptionally well and everyone else didn't have to stress out from ol loud mouth singing the song of his people. thank you for always making our vet visits a good experience. we appreciate it so so much.
