Bourne Veterinary Practice
Canterbury
Our Score (88/100)
Bourne Veterinary Practice provides care for cats, dogs and small pets, with in-house options that go beyond routine appointments (hydrotherapy and acupuncture are both listed on its website). Reviews repeatedly mention practical, pet-specific handling and follow-through—such as making special arrangements for a fearful dog (including giving an injection while the owner sat outside with the dog on their lap) and ongoing hydrotherapy support after a dog’s leg amputation to rebuild strength and confidence. Owners also mention the practice proactively booking appointments when needed and being “usually running on time”.
