Very disappointing experience. We have been using this veterinary practice for a long time, and they have seen my dog many times. However, I was recently asked to pay £50 for a Brucella test based on the clinic’s internal policy, even though my dog was imported 9 years ago and has been living in the UK ever since. This was not clearly explained as a non-legal requirement, and it felt unfair to impose extra costs without proper justification. Because of this, I will not be using this practice anymore. I hope they improve their transparency with long-term clients in the future.

Can’t recommend enough! Beautiful practice and lovely staff

Joanne Mulligan

We started going to Tattenhall Veterinary Practice with our new puppy. They have been excellent in their care, from vaccinations to ongoing weighing, general healthcare advice and prescribing worming tablets. The staff go the extra mile and are always kind and caring with our pup. I would highly recommend.

Beachin Dog Therapy

All the staff are lovely. They have been incredibly patient and accommodating with one of my more anxious pets. The communication from them is excellent. Prices seem reasonable, and I particularly like the less clinical feel/smell of the reception area. After a couple of traumatic experiences elsewhere they’ve helped restore my faith

Dr. Sophie, Claire, and the rest of the Tattenhall team are truly the best! Traveling with our little dog throughout Europe and the UK for months at a time, we've interacted with many vets for check-ups, travel tablets, etc., and none have been so welcoming, so caring, and so willing to go out of their way for our little man. We visited Dr. Sophie initially for a tapeworm tablet for travel, but she was able to quickly understand some of W's chronic tummy troubles and give us a pathway to help him feel better. Even though we live in the US, we plan on keeping in touch for W's ongoing care. We are jealous of anyone who lives close enough to see Dr. Sophie and team regularly and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional care for their four-legged family. On top of this, their practice is new, modern, and spotlessly clean. Thank you again for everything!
