Where it is
What owners say
4.4★★★★★184 reviews on Google. 74% of reviews give five stars.
The rating is Google's, not ours. A high average from a handful of reviews says less than a slightly lower one from hundreds. We do not copy the reviews themselves.
How openly it publishes
- Price page on its website
- One click from the home page
- 13 of the 36 standard prices
- Says whether prices include VAT
- Flea and worm prices published
- Says who owns the practice
- Explains its pet care plan
The score counts the things the rules ask a practice to publish. It measures openness about prices, not the quality of care.
Pet care plans
The monthly plans this practice sells, and a rough check on whether one pays for itself.
| Plan | For | Per month | Per year | What the practice says it includes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Healthy Pet Club Core Plan | from £20.99 | £252 | Save on average £261 a year* | |
| Healthy Pet Club Advanced Plan | from £29.99 | £360 | Save on average £321 a year* |
A rough check only. Most plans also include flea and worm treatment, nail clips and a discount on other work, and this sum counts only a yearly booster and two consultations. If you would buy the extras anyway, the plan can still come out ahead.
