It was very nice experience with my cat even I was upset about his health. The vet doctor very nicely checked the cat, explained everything and prescribed some medicine for my Alfie cat. I become less upset and felt positive about my Alfie recovery. Thank you very much for your service and great expertise. I highly recommend this vet clinic to every animal owner. Many thanks, Tatiana Swaffer

I have to say that this vets is the best vets I’ve ever been too before coming here with my Zeus two other vet practices had seen him done blood tests and other stuff and both places said better off putting him to sleep Then I came here as I was not giving up on my boy it has taken roughly two weeks of tests and trials but Pete wasn’t giving up on him either. He went above and beyond for Zeus and has figured out what was going on and mended him he has phoned me personally at 7pm 9:30 pm to keep me updated even took him for evening walks while off work hours I really appreciate what he has done and will always be grateful he definitely treats all animals like they are his own THANKYOU PETE and all of your team your all amazing and please keep doing what you are doing xxxx

We were referred for both of our French Bulldogs who were struggling with eye ulcers and we were so happy with both of their treatments. Everyone is so kind not only to the dogs but to us too. Donny’s treatment was more involved but was explained to us really well and he was made very comfortable so that he wasn’t stressed. He appears to have responded really well and seems so much more himself already! We can’t thank the team enough! Thank you!

We have a family of 4 dogs and 3 cats... So Vets & Costs are very important to us. Unfortunately not all Vet are the same, hence we were very lucky to discover Canterbury Veterinary Surgery, No rushed 'Consultations', No outrageous 'Fees', and best of all we are certain our little family will get the best Healthcare. It is small and unpretentious, but the staff and the care offered are top notch and that is all that matters to us, not the marketing bling.

I took my 15 year old cat with an 8 year illness to 2 Parkwood vets today to see Jonathon, it's rare and refreshing to meet a vet offering so much kind advise, we both know my little cat isn't long for this world but he made Baxter feel comfortable ,for one last try to perk him up again. Jon was so thorough, didn't rush me, and made me feel he understood my aim to assist him moving forward. Thankyou so much. I have 4 pets so im glad to have changed from my last vet to here. I've seen Millie twice too and she is equally as helpful and cheery.

Away for the weekend in the area. Our dog wasn't quite right, phoned on Saturday morning and they got us straight in. Vet was amazing with him and put our minds at rest. Absolutely amazing service, wish we lived in the area to use the surgery on a regular basis. Top class service, thanks to everyone there!

My puppy is registered here and I can say with all honesty that the staff here are brilliant. They handled my little Rolo with such care and compassion. All my question regarding his health were answered very well and future care was explained to me perfectly! I would definitely recommend this practice to anyone without hesitation!
