Emergency speying required. Vets did a fantastic job. Have been with then for over 20 years and think they’re a great practice.

Jess and the team recently had to do a caesarean on my Norfolk terrier out of hours, her professionalism was outstanding, clear about the procedure and more so Bella has made a remarkable recovery with no complications. Thank you so much.

Needed them as an emergency vet whilst visiting the area. Excellent service and so much less expensive than our own vet.

I was on holiday when my dog became unwell and I took her to Bishops Castle vets where she got excellent care. I can’t fault them. If it wasn’t a five hour drive I’d switch to them as my dog’s regular vet!
