Fantastic Vet Practice, lovely atmosphere at both sites and a feeling that it is one family not two separate practices. As a Christian it's is lovely to have found a Christian Veterinary Practise.

I wanted to post a recommendation. My little rescue cat Lily, was diagnosed with stomatitis a year or so ago by conventional vets. I did not resonate with the treatment they wanted to give her, so went holistic via research on the Internet. However after some months of improvement I went to Birgit for an assessment. To cut a long story short, my Lily is impossible to get to the vet, for me anyway, but lovely Valentina, the new vet, has made several visits to monitor Lily's progress and supplements, and give her acupuncture. I just wanted to say that after Valentina's visit today, our little Lily called for us and showed herself rolling around showing her tummy, something hardly ever seen. Even though I have done lots of research for Lily's health, it is so reassuring to have Valentina to look at her and examine her every so often as Lily also needs acupuncture for her emotional health and it is obvious that she is much happier. And also Valentina is wonderful in examining Lily in corners, in cupboards or other hidey holes. Nothing is too much trouble. Thank you so much Valentina and Birgit. Our dear little girl is so much better after her hard start in life.

Just a quick review for Dr Birgit. We took our little 7 year old Chihuahua x Yorkie( Lily) to Birgit when she was diagnosed with advanced lung cancer. That was over 7 months ago and Lily is doing fine. Quality of life is excellent and shows no signs of deteriating. In fact She's as active and cheeky as ever. I think the outcome with a traditional vet would have been pretty poor and would have meant a lot of vet visits and separation not to mention some big bills. We have not been apart from Lily once and could not be more pleased with her treatment and of course the fact that she is still with us and doing so well. Thank you Birgit. You are wonderful.

Flynn, my 13 month old labrador, had a retrobulbar abscess caused by a foreign body that got into his system. We tried conventional specialist treatment (CT scan/investigative surgery/ultrasound etc) but the swelling kept reappearing. Birgit brought together a mix of Chinese medicine, homeopathy, plant/herbs and acapuncture which over a period of only a week reduced the swelling and saw Flynn move towards his old self. Probably the foreign body dissolved itself we cant know but his system was strengthened by her work to enable him to deal with it himself. Birgit's wonderful way of working with animals meant that he was able to be confident and cooperative with her - she really went that extra mile - especially through those early danger days - helping me to feel supported and know Flynn was having the best treatment for him by a wonderful vet.

In late September 2023 my Labrador sustained what I thought was an injury to his lower back. He was very distressed and in a lot of pain. Naturally I rushed him to the vets and after a couple of weeks on anti-inflammatory and pain relief drugs he wasn't better. We were referred to specialist vets for scans, MRI's and tests to discover he had a degenerative condition called IVDD (bulging discs). Treatments were offered but all of them were invasive, carried huge risks and crazy expensive with no guarantee of success. He was also on very limited exercise which, any Labrador owner would know is very hard to manage because as a breed they need lots of exercise! After researching his condition and looking at alternative treatments I started taking him to hydrotherapy which is where I was recommended Birgit. Being keen to avoid surgery/invasive treatments and the damaging effects of him taking long term drugs I contacted her and we began our journey of acupuncture, Chinese herbs and homeopathic treatments. Birgit has been incredible, she has worked her magic and as I write this today I have a healthy well exercised Labrador not needing surgery, invasive treatment or drugs. I honestly can't recommend Birgit enough, we are both so grateful and I will ALWAYS champion the holistic route for any of my pets health needs. Birgit, we both thank you so much, you are so very special to us.

Missed my appointment by a couple of minutes. Ended up waiting an extra 30 minutes. I do understand that when it's your pet you don't want to be rushed but make the appointment slot longer. When you get to see the vet it is a good experience.

Was with Dacre House many years ago, then moved out of area BUT moved back 4 years later. Re-enrolled with Dacre House, updated my pets and wouldn’t go to any other vets. Israel was so caring with my young cat and (hopefully) treated her promptly. Thank you ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A truly lovely vet practice. Always helpful and accommodating when you need assistance or advice. Appointment times are well kept and the pricing structure is clear. I feel that my pets have been ,over the years, and are still being well looked after and cared for in their best interests.

We had a superb experience with Priory Lodge Vets. Our little cockapoo, Rosie, broke her ACL and had to have a TLPO operation. Dirk was very caring and explained everything in full to us and his expertise meant the operation was a success. The nursing staff were very friendly, reassuring and efficient too. Many thanks for all your outstanding care and compassionate professionalism.

The vets, nurses and receptionists at Priory Lodge were absolutely amazing with our hamster Belle and went above and beyond allowing us to come in every day for her antibiotics and pain relief to make her as comfortable as possible. We will always be grateful for their care and support.

Daisy ( mini Yorkshire Terrier)had a nasty bout of Gastroenteritis and was sorted out with efficiency and care by a lovely vet and is now on the mend! We also had a follow up text the next day to ask how she was doing..a nice touch!!

So, so lucky to have this place as my local vets. I am a bit of a regular fixture in there while I build my pup's confidence and the staff are phenomenal: super understanding, patient and all real deal animal lovers. Ruth Wadsworth with her understanding in dog behaviour is a real asset and my boy is head over heels for Liv the nursing assistant. They all rock and we're both super grateful for them.

Have brought one of my cats, Claude, to Culverden Vets a couple of times now on the recommendation of a friend and am very happy with the care and service provided by the whole team there. All staff were friendly and understanding and gave a genuine impression that they cared about the welfare of Claude. Would definitely recommend.

I have just taken my challenging cat for her yearly vaccinations. This is normally a very stressful appointment with her being held down by towels. Today, Mr Duncan Mitchell expertly held her in a way that allowed the vaccination to be administered without upsetting her. I was very impressed and couldn’t recommend this vets more. Thank you!

Had to make the difficult decision to have my dog put to sleep, I return to this practice in Crowborough after having left, best choice I made for my beloved Bella. Staff were amazing from reception to vet (phil) Especially helpful with my disabled husband gaining access to be there 👏

All the staff are so friendly and helpful. They have just had our German Shepherd Skye in to be spayed and couldn’t ask any more of them with the way she was cared for. We wouldn’t go anywhere else. We use the Crowborough surgery but have in the past used the Tunbridge Wells emergency surgery with our other dog 4 years ago and received the same dedicated care. I highly recommend Culverden Vets without hesitation and our GS loves going there ( could be the treats she gets 🤣 )

I have 4 beautiful dogs with different breeds, and I look everywhere to where I should register my pets? After doing all my research and speaking to a few friends, I decided to register them with this vet! As I believe they are the best and which they are! Having said that, it's been 3 years since my babies are coming here. Everything was fantastic and I am very happy and appreciated all the staff members. Who are very helpful! When I have to call for an emergency, they are taking appointments promptly and always asking to inform them a couple of days later for any treatment they had with recommendation and suggestion. My maltese had a baby a few months back, and I am very pleased with how they're looking after my girl and the pup, as they understand how worried I am! Even though they have seen so many animals coming through the door, they do remember all of my babies' visits with passionated and concern. I thank all the veterinary and the staff members for all the work and treatment that they have done to my babies ( at a very reasonable price) Keep up the good work!

We have used CC Vets for many years and always received wonderful service from the veterinarians and reception staff alike. Our kitten was recently injured which was a very frightening experience, but we were seen immediately by Dr Veronica Bernal who was absolutely superb. She did a very thorough check and put us at ease too. Misha has made a full recovery. Thank you so much!

My dog, Stretch, had a sudden and scary auto immune disease, and if it weren't for Dr. Veronica and her incredible team at companion care, I dont think Stretch would've made it. Dr Veronica is pro-active, compassionate and knowledgeable. The practice is professional but so welcoming, and everyone treated Stretch so lovingly. It was the hardest experience to go through, but the companion care team helped make it more bearable.

I called in the morning following my dog experiencing a seizure like issue overnight. I was surprised when the helpful receptionist offered to squeeze us in between appointments, she was very clear that it would likely mean a long wait. The wait to see the vet was actually not as long as I anticipated, which was a pleasant surprise, but I’m still thankful for the heads up had that not been the case. The vet was OUTSTANDING! Extremely knowledgeable and very patient, he really took the time to explain everything to a very anxious owner (me)! We didn’t feel rushed out of our appointment, despite knowing there were others waiting and that we had booked a last minute appointment. He took the time to ensure everything was well explained to us, that we understood and that we were happy, before reiterating next steps so we left feeling well informed. He was so kind in answering all of our many questions, we were so impressed and felt much relief following the visit. Thank you!! The veterinary nurse who took our dog away quickly for a blood test was so kind and I knew my dog was in safe hands. When she returned she was sweet to say my dog was ‘really good’ and praised her before leaving. These little kindnesses and patience can be such a relief when worried about your pet, to feel that they are cared for when you aren’t in the room is so important. Thank you!

I want to thank the gentleman vet on duty on Friday 25/06/2021 at 18h30. We had some expensive decisions to make and even though these are not made clearly when one is in a rush and worried about a pet, the vet was so kind to us. He asked us on a number of occasions whether we needed to take 5 min alone to make a choice about the next stage of treatment. Just by saying that, he allowed us to gather ourselves. His treatment of our dog was exceptional but I would expect that from a vet. I was so grateful of his treatment of us humans. Thank you for your kindness.

Really pleased! Our rabbit, James, was unwell and our normal vet was not available. I was able to get him seen within 30min. The veterinarian was very good with James, gave me clear after care instructions. I found the cost a little high but James is fine and it was well worth it. I would definitely recommend them if you need an emergency vet.
