Helping your pets Get Better Since 1974

A friendly practice who will do everything to help you and your pets

We pride ourselves on providing an efficient, effective and friendly service for all pets. The practice started out over 35 years ago in the Nethergate area of Dundee, moving to our present premises in 1996. During this time we have built up a large client base from Dundee and surrounding area.

Our friendly receptionists will be happy to make appointments for you or help with any enquiries you may have. If required they can pass you on to one of our qualified nurses or vets who will be able to give further advice in relation to your enquiry.

Our customers' trust is extremely valuable to us and has been built up over the years in the knowledge that all our staff adhere to the highest work ethics. We endeavour to provide care and treatment that is both beneficial and necessary to ensure the well-being of your pets. You can trust that there will be no additional expenses incurred by unnecessary procedures or over-prescribing of medicines.
