Our Red Setter Chilli was taken ill on Christmas day whilst we were on holiday. We were seen by Douglas Ross. I was very grateful for the very caring service we received and would like to say she has recovered and is back to herself. I would gladly recommend these vets, and if we lived nearer, I would gladly be using them. A very big thank you for the care you gave our dog. Judith Thatcher

Staff are amazing offered for our puppy to attend once a month to have play time and to meet other dogs so she doesn’t just see the vets as a negative place.

Time and again the vets have have performed miracles with our dogs. They are so kind and really care. Some of the miracles have been pretty major and they really understand what you are going through and look after you too. Thank you Bakewell vets you are all terrific.

Unfortunately we had to make the difficult decision to send our old terrier over the rainbow bridge. The staff were incredibly kind and compassionate and gave us as much time as we needed both before and after she went. I know money shouldn't come into it but unfortunately it does, and the bill we received was so much more reasonable than what you would expect from some of the larger chain vets. We live over 40 mins away but will always be taking our dogs there as the service is worth the distance!

We were staying at the nearby campsite when my dog, Zeus, needed urgent care over the bank holiday weekend. I was petrified because of the type of care that was needed and also worried about the bill over the bank holiday, but Douglas and everyone at the practice were just incredible and you can tell they love animals. I rave to everyone about how amazing the staff were and I only wish they were closer to us at home because I’d love to have them as our everyday vets. Zeus needed to go back over the 3 days we were away and I was so reassured throughout the whole process. Douglas even called on the Saturday night to make sure he was doing ok. Just so appreciative of how well Zeus was looked after and I can’t recommend enough x
