What pet owners say
I cannot sing their praises enough. Our little dog had a suspicious lump. Antibiotics and steroids seemed to do the trick then a few days after the steroids were stopped the mass was back with a vengeance literally overnight alongside another on the other side. We phoned our usual vet,clares vets cavehill, we had an appointment in Whiteabbey same day which was a saturday and she was booked in for surgery the coming Thursday. We were offered transport on the day which was amazing, but ultimately we wanted to bring her in and pick her up again ourselves. She received a 5 star service again, we had a very thorough update by phone from the surgeon as soon as she was out if theatre and we are now awaiting pathology grading results with fingers and toes crossed we finally get some good news that borders were clear and its low grade and we can breathe. The after care follow up plan they have put in place is fantastic and we feel like she could not have been in any better hands throughout all of this. No matter the coming results outcome we are certain they've done their absolute best for her and we are eternally grateful for the clares team. Much love and thanks to them all from Pipers family ❤️

Thank you to Paula and staff for helping with an upsetting and traumatic incident involving my Old English Sheepdog Oscar who sadly passed away at home aged 13. With nowhere to take him on Saturday morning, they offered to take him in and helped me with the cremation plans. It was more expensive than I thought, but the difference in their service to the local I took Oscar to on Thursday before he died unexpectedly, was worth it.

The best vet clinic I’ve ever been to. Everyone is so welcoming and very helpful. Nothing is ever too much for any of the staff. I’ve taken my cats and dogs to Clare Vet Group for many years, through the good times and the bad, and have always been treated with kindness. Lovely caring people who genuinely love animals. Thanks especially to Naomi, Diane, Andy, Martin and Keith for your care of my babies over the years and also a big thanks to Paula, Colleen, Anne, Janice and Niamh for making all those appointments and giving me a shoulder to cry on when needed. Clare Vet Group is the best!
