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!

I cannot fault this vets at all. I have 9 rescue dogs and they have always been fantastic with them. The practice has certainly grown and modernised over the years that I have been registered with them but the care is always exceptional. As for the cost ...you couldn't get better. They are pretty amazing to be honest 😊 Thank you Gail Reuben says thank you too 🩵

You simply cannot get better than Bishops Castle Vets. All of the staff, vets and nurses are welcoming, understanding and very kind and supportive. I've had dogs all my life and have never experienced friendly professionalism like it. Thoroughly recommended.

I was staying in Bishop's Castle on holiday and my dog became unwell. My usual vets advised that I contacted a local surgery and the vets here were willing to see my dog on the same day, which was a huge relief. They took amazing care of my dog and offered to see her again if she needed it. Everyone was incredibly kind - I can't recommend them highly enough!
