What our clients say

Thank you very much and carry on the wonderful work you are all doing. Terri and Huffle

As always Anita, my gratitude sent to you and your staff for their continued professionalism during these awful times. Stay safe everyone. Sue

HUGE THANKS for managing to remain open during these times to care for our beloved pets. Take very good care. Linda and Ciara

Thank you for the update. We very much appreciate all that you are doing. Stay safe, and keep well. Melva

I just want to say thank you for the caring, compassionate service a few days ago, when our beloved Sinny was put to sleep. Nish, the vet, was wonderful as was the nurse that came in to. Thank you to the reception ladies also for giving us that bit of extra time to get to you. I'm now sitting here, thinking about everything. The best decision was coming back to you from another appalling vets and seeing how peaceful Sinny went with us there. I couldn't have wished for anything different, and neither would Sinny. I look forward to seeing you in the future with my many other animals, for good reasons of course. Mrs Nash

Our dog had an operation yesterday and the care that he received was second to none. So understanding and extremely caring. Wouldn’t use any other vets. The best vets in Colchester, as far as my husband and I are concerned. The reception staff are always welcoming and the vets and nurses are always willing to give you the advice you need. We wouldn't want to go anywhere else. Thank you St. Runwalds. Brian and Jayne Spooner

Super friendly staff, always happy to help. Amazing that they support us at Colchester cats protection with all our vet needs. Couldn't ask for a better vets. Kirstie Davis★★★★★

I have been using your practice for over 40 years and you have looked after all my many cats, dogs and not to mention rabbits and other small animals when my children were young! I feel that nothing is too much trouble and that you are always available in a crisis. Thank you so much. Pamela Jones★★★★★

For me and my dogs this is the best vets around, they have been looking after my animals for as long as I can remember, I even travel from Little Clacton when I have a vets up the road from my house. Why? Because their care and attention is just great and my dogs love them x Stephanie Harris★★★★★

This is an excellent vets, and would recommend 100%. In fact I travel over 10 miles to get there because I don’t want to use any other vets closer to me. My dog has recently gone blind and needed surgery, the vet had an excellent ‘bed side manner’ with both myself and my dog. We have been using this vet practice for over 25 years and would not dream of going anywhere else. Ria Goodman★★★★★

I switched from another vet to here about 5 years ago. Best thing I ever did. Although my boy hates the vets, and gets really stressed, they are always very kind and understanding with him. Popped in yesterday for advice, and both ladies were more than helpful. Lizzy Boo Tomlinson Lewis★★★★★

Really friendly! So pleased I changed over last year. Ingrid Ransome

Really friendly. Superb people run by the most caring person you could wish to meet. Sue Noy

BOOSTER APPOINTMENTS

Dear Clients,

Thank you to everyone for their patience in these difficult times when providing booster appointments for your pets has been challenging.

I am pleased to report that, through offering 'booster clinics', we have been able to see many of those pets for their annual check-up and vaccination.

If you however still require an appointment for this purpose, please do now contact us.

We still have opportunity to book on some Saturdays and Wednesdays from September into October. We are trying to book those pets that need their vaccinations in date order so, if your pet falls later on in the month for their annual vaccination we will try as we can to keep to that timing or perhaps a little later.

Please note that some delay is possible, without detriment to your pet’s wellbeing, depending on their medical history and circumstances.

So we can utilise these appointments to their best potential we would be grateful if, at the time of booking, you can pre-order any parasite control products or routine medication required so that these can be ready for you.

We understand there will be significant demand for these booster appointments and as so, they are expected to fill quickly. Please do bear with us and, if the spaces available are taken, reception will take note of your details and contact you to offer a convenient time and date when more opportunities to be seen will hopefully be secured.

We are still consulting in the car park to safeguard everyone and after discussing any concerns with you, your pet will come in to the practice and be returned to you, after their vaccination and health check.

We kindly ask that you please make sure you bring your pet’s vaccination booklet with you to your appointment. If you require a new or replacement card, please do make us aware of this when you initially book your pet’s appointment and we can have this ready for you.

Thank you again for your support and the lovely emails we have received.

With best wishes,

Anita and team.
