Minster Vets recently gave my spaniel his health checks and vaccinations and as usual they were welcoming and professional . We have seen a number of different vets over time and they all treat my dog with care and kindness. I wouldn’t go anywhere else .

Myself and Tilley paid a visit to Minster Vet's Crockey Hill today for the annual health checks and vaccination, it was the new vaccination today so we have to return in 4 weeks for the second part. It's a nice experience with lovely reception and vet staff, I always try and see the same vet as my Tilley can be abit nervous with people but Rona was very reassuring which made it easier for her. Highly recommended for all your pet needs, and don't forget about your annual vaccinations, those Dieases are still out there and can be very nasty and of course deadly.

The service at Minster vets was superb. The reception was polite and friendly and the vet who attended to my dog was lovely. He was patient and marvellous examining him. He weighed him, then gave him his vaccination injection gently, and kennel cough up his nose with no problems. He also administered his 3 monthly and monthly tablets with great patience, as my dog sniffed them and spit them out every time! He then used a syringe of water with each one, so he got them down ok without distressing him. Overall it was an excellent service.

First visit to Minster Vets with our cat Milo. Currently with Tower vets but unable to get an appt before our holidays for Milo’s booster (needed for cattery). Lovely staff - very accommodating and friendly. Matt the vet was very thorough and lovely with Milo. Will be transferring from Tower.

I took my dogs for their annual vaccinations and for nail clipping, and Max the vet was amazing. My dogs absolutely loved him and even Ruby, who can be very nervous, was really relaxed. Max also gave some great advice on options for speying, along with an estimate of cost, weight management and keeping my dogs teeth clean. The dogs got a few treats whilst they were there and we all came away from our visit very happy!
