Cannot recommend Rob and the team at Thompson House Vets enough! An amazing service from start to finish. Every horse is treated with the highest level of love and care and the team go above and beyond to ensure you and your horse leave feeling 100% reassured and happy and will take there time to explain every finer detail in a way that you understand and are kept in the loop with everything. Let’s not forget how immaculate the whole place is!! I simply will not go anywhere else. Thank you so much to you all for making myself and Ben feel at complete ease today. Have a great Easter! Leanne ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I have been with Thompson House since they very first started, and cannot put into words how amazing Rob and the team are. Every single person goes above and beyond for myself and my horses. Both Bradley and Tracey on reception are polite and professional, but also have every single horses best interest at heart. Brad even loads my mare on the box for my mum who is nervous (and small!) when I am not able to attend and is just a genuinely amazing person inside and out. Rob, Gen and Tommy are outstanding in every aspect of their profession, and I would recommend them to anyone who asked and can’t thank them enough for their support.

From the moment of arrival, to saying goodbye, Thompson house are professional, friendly and real horse people. The horses in their care are top priority and everywhere is immaculate and they accommodate every horse. When you walk into the stable block it’s very calm and relaxed. The stables are also beautiful! They go above and beyond and have even sourced in my horses usual feed when he had an unexpected overnight stay to ensure his belly stayed happy. Whatever time of the day we land all the beds are immaculate and all the horses are happy-special thank you to Hannah and Laura for looking after my pony Bobby whilst he’s in, I never have worry about his care whilst in their hands. They have excellent facilities including a lovely indoor for the rainy days and even have a cafe attached for a super breakfast!! The receptionists are incredible. Whatever time of day, they are extremely patient and are very good at communicating what is going on/updates with your horse to give you piece of mind and comfort. Bradley has communicated with my insurance provider (Petplan) on behalf of me nothing has been too much trouble for him. He has answered many questions regarding how the insurance works and which forms I need to fill out. Tracey has also organised days with the farrier to come in and work with the vets so everybody is on the same page. The work up’s/diagnostic information done with my horse Bobby has been very practical and efficient and I feel throughout the process Rob has been realistic and has given me a good management plan and guidance. He has lots of time for his clients and answers my list of a million questions even though he is a very busy man! He works beyond the office hours and has even sent emails at midnight of X-rays/scans. He is completely committed to the practice and a vet who truly cares. The farrier and Thompson House work as a team regarding Bobby’s shoeing and have discussed what could be improved/X-rays ect. We have also attended multiple of the PK clinic days which we feel very fortunate to have the opportunity to have 2 very experienced sets of eyes! I recommended Thompson House Equine Vets to all of my friends as I truly believe there is no better practice. There is nothing I could fault or pick at. If only everybody was lucky enough to have a vet practice like Thompson House. Thank you Rob and the team.❤️

We were visiting friends in the area when my dog, Dobby wasn’t well, it was saturday morning and i didn’t want to wait til Monday. They fitted him in immediately. The vet, Dr Shams, was superb, gentle, thorough, professional - brilliant with the dog and with me! The receptionist was super friendly and reassuring too. We were very impressed with the whole practice and would highly recommend it. Thank you Sunrise.

We moved to Sunrise thanks to a recommendation from a friend, wish we had done it years ago. All the staff are very friendly and you feel like your doggo is gettng the attention they deserve, he even happily trots in to the practice, which was unheard of in our previous vets.

Wouldn’t take our two dogs anywhere else. Shams takes his time with examinations, and is very gentle with our dogs. He always thoroughly checks them over regardless of what they attend for. One of our girls is very nervous and he is so understanding and patient with her. In addition, the rest of Sunrise team are very friendly and helpful always make you feel welcome with a little chat. Very clean practice and plenty of parking on site too. Can’t Highly recommend Sunrise Vets enough.

The team at Sunrise vets are a dedicated, caring, professional, wonderful bunch of people. Our senior dog Bruno has been with the Sunrise family for 3 years and we couldn’t have asked for better care. Their communication is thoughtful, efficient, and timely. They always find the time to answer our queries (which as first time dog owners is really helpful!) and genuinely care. They work so hard and we hope Shams, Sarah, Jade, Chloe and the team find time to nurture themselves as they nurture our animals so well. Thank you from Sarah, Phil and of course Bruno

Staff are friendly however consultation rooms are small for larger breeds and consultations are done on the floor would be great if they had a lifting table. Sometimes it seems price takes precedence over the right course of treatment for the animal. I understand this may be procedure but can be a little off putting when you just want whats right for your pet regardless of the cost, may be a better way to approach this

Excellent service with no complaints. Easy to book an appointment, efficient treatment, and friendly staff. I also love how clean, bright and fresh everything looks, and it smells clean too!

Can’t say enough good things about medivet Standish, they have seen both my puppies with no issues at all I’ve the past 3 years, not only that when my dads cat (who at the time wasn’t registered at the practice) became ill, they saw her straight away with no hesitation and the care she received in that time was second to non. And today when I have brought my kitten in for the first time the care for her was amazing. These vets really care about your animals and I think the price you pay is fair for the care and service you receive whilst there. No problem is too big or small for them. Will never take my pets anywhere else!

Ideally the cost of a vet & treatment would be gentle on the wallet. With 5 pets we've taken there and the occasional wild animal in need. They have always done a fantastic job.

Very pet minded, polite, caring. I enjoyed good minded banter with staff, and my pet was treated with care and consideration from start to finish. Defo recommend

I had a lovely vet I think her name was Lauren. I sadly had to have my elderly cat put down, she talked me through everything that was going to happen and I didn’t feel rushed when I was saying goodbye to her. For an awful situation all I can say is thank you for your support it’s a wonderful practice

These are lovely people and they've looked after my precious misty and have made her life so much better by seeing her teeth were rotted.

She's my lil rescue.cat and is lovely.... thank you vets for pets, you have helped my lil girl so much xx

Going to the vet is never fun. However, it is great to have a good vet that you can trust to look after & do the best for your furry friend! For me, it's important to understand every step of the treatment process and we were given really detailed information on what has to be done and why. Thanks to Luc & the team for doing their best by us and our wee dog! Would definitely recommend. Fast forward a couple of years and they're still treating him fantastically

How many vets in Wigan or surrounding areas have a 24 hour care system in place? I have been familiar with this surgery when Mr Warrior ran the practice 1960’s The high standards established then remain today. Claire’s Doggy Rooming and Grooming I hear lots of stories some good and some sad that’s why I’m giving my support to a vet who listens and is compassionate 🐾🦴

Have been taking all of my pet family to this practice for over 20 years. Words can not express how amazing they treat their customers and patience. I appreciate how caring everyone is and how they go over and above at all times to provide the best care. Thank you all so much.

I’ve been taking my pets here since moving to the area three years ago. I’ve seen all the vets at different points and have always been really impressed. They give you clear explanations and advice on costs etc. I have felt that they very much act in your pets best interests. For example not recommending surgery for my older cat despite this clearly being a profitable option. Cat recovered well on the advice of Aaron. We lost our dog almost two years ago and he’d declined over the year. Potts and Charlotte were fantastic. Explaining all options but then allowing time to answer questions about everything so I could make informed decisions. When it came time to say goodbye they allowed two of us inside to be with him and let us have as much time as needed. The nurses were all absolutely amazing too. I wouldn’t take my pets anywhere else now.

I have used Gilmore vets for 30 years and I have never been disappointed. I know I can trust them to give my pet the best care. They have always explained any treatment required and shown empathy when treatment no longer is an option, even to the point of sending a sympathy card on the loss of my pet. I highly recommend Gilmore Veterinary Practice.

Bryn vets are absolutely amazing. Thursday, 16th Jan, my labrador Bailey, 13 years old, was struggling to breathe due to his progressive laryngeal paralysis condition he has. I got to see the vets straight away. Upon arrival, my Bailey got out of the car, and by the time we got to the desk to check in, his tongue had turned blue, and he couldn't breathe. Rhianan on the desk quickly got him straight through to the back with the vets and got him on oxygen, and gave him sedation to calm him down. I was in tears. There were two vets that helped deal with him, Nicola, and a blonde haired vet, so sorry I forgot your name. Nicola spoke with me and explained very calmly what my options were. She arranged for me to take him to Whitefield Vet hospital for an emergency Tie Back operation. They monitored him for 2 hrs, and I came back to collect him with my husband. Rhianan was so caring and the blonde vet. We brought him outside, and again, he struggled to breathe, so they asked if it wss OK to sedate him again. Once they were happy with him, we then made our way to Whitefield Vet hospital. He had the operation the next day (today) and was successful. Rhianan rang me up to check how Bailey was doing , telling me that she couldn't stop thinking about Bailey all night and that all the vets were too. How lovely is that ? It brought me to tears to see how caring and loving the staff at Bryn vets are towards their animals that they care for. I can not thank you enough for the care and love you have all shown. It's gonna be a lot of care and attention for Bailey once he comes home . But I know I've got the best caring staff at Bryn vets a phone call away. From the bottom of my heart , thank you for helping my Bailey xxxx

Thank you to all at Bryn vets for seeing Hope quickly this morning after she had been hit by a car. She was treated by yourselves before being transferred to the vet hospital. We brought her home this evening after getting the all clear. She did not have any internal damage thankfully. She’s been such a lucky girl and we are so grateful for the care you provided.

My dog had been poorly for a number of days when I brought him to the practice. Lindsay saw him, she took care of him like he was her dog. Lindsay gathered lots of information from us before doing a blood test (Lucy helped in this task.) When the results came back, Lindsay went through everything with us. A plan of care was discussed with us which we agreed to. Milo needed a follow up appointment on Bank holiday Monday. This time we saw Nicola, another caring , knowledgeable vet. Again a care plan was discussed with us which we agreed to. Milo says thanks for making him better. We thank you too. Staff are so caring and professional, excellent. Well done.
