I can't speak highly enough about Michael and his team, outstanding service with a really friendly touch - which for me is very much required when dealing with pets. Always being able to talk to the vet that dealt with the issue is a lovely touch which leaves us with no doubts when we leave.

The best Veterinary practice we have ever dealt with. We sadly had to have our dog put to sleep recently. This was extremely hard for us but the team at st Vincent's were highly professional and empathetic. They were kind throughout and even sent us a card of condolence.

Outstanding recommended veterinary practice that genuinely puts the welfare of our beloved pets first and foremost. My cats were very well cared for before, during and following a castration procedure and were treated with real compassion thereafter. This practice is not local to me but well worth travelling to for the reassuring knowledge that my boys are in safe, loving hands.

Very caring and compassionate vets, with the animals interest first and foremost. Cannot sing their praises enough, Amy was in good hands when taken ill recently, we were on holiday and looked after Amy on her last day, liaising with our dog sitter and us to make it as painless as end of life can be. Would recommend them 100%, they cared for Amy for a number of years before the end xx

I had lost faith in Vets after a few bad experiences where I had proof that money had been the priority and not my dog.
A friend recomended St Vincents.
Soon after I needed help for my dog and gave them a call. Micheal was unique and i was actually shocked by his total commitment for what was best for my dog and how WE would work together to sort him out, his interest and level of detail was reassuring and new.
St Vincents have seen Buddha a couple of times since over the past few years and proved to me i had found he best vet for Buddha if i needed them.I have been impressed and then re-assured

Great caring staff. Dr. Michael has a wonderful manner with both his patients and their humans! Never feel rushed and he always explains things well and ensures we feel comfortable with a treatment plan. Came here after our old vet couldn't diagnose or treat our ill dog -St. Vincent's had him back in action and his old self in a few hours! So glad we found them!

Michael and the team are incredible. Always going the extra mile for animals and their owners. My cat had an operation there as an emergency and we were kept up to date with how she was doing, and called when she was reday to collect. He explained all that had been done and reassured us all was ok. Always In a way that is not rushed, and always made to feel welcome in a friendly environment. Definately the best vet we have ever used and will continue to use and recommend for many years! Thank you St. Vincents! :)

I have been using St Vincent's for the last 8 years and have always found everyone, Vets and receptionists to be helpful, they keep you informed about all the treatment your pet requires and are sensitive to both pets and owners alike. My dog Taffy is never worried about walking in through the door and is happy to see everyone. I would highly recommend this practice for all you rpet needs.
