As a progressive practice we recently relocated to our brand new, purpose-built practice in Woking, and continue to invest to refurbish and equip our other 2 practices to the same high standard.

Our Bagshot practice maintains state of the art clinical equipment along with a nice prep area where we conduct dirty ops/procedures/x-rays as well as a theatre for clean ops.

We also have a small kennel area, consulting room and potential for nurse consult room. At our main site we also have a purpose-built grooming salon. We have a loyal client base and a gold standard reputation across the local community.

We have great transport links to London and the beauty and history of Surrey on our doorstep ready to explore.
