Best vet I have ever been to! Collin and the team are fantastic with our two dogs! They always take the time to thoroughly examining them when there is a problem or just a check up! Practical advice is always given and we are never left to figure any treatments on our own! Read Less

My Greyhound is under the care of a specialist here. He is compassionate, and patient. Staff take the time to explain everything and answer questions thoroughly. Follow up appointments and care is easy to arrange. Read Less

Took our family dog there after being referred to Dr Colin by another vet. We were prepared for the worst news but Dr Colin treated my dog with everything he could possibly do to make him comfortable as he healed from an injury. Couple days after my dog was not doing well so we took him back to Dr Colin and he advised us the best thing to do at this point without having to put him down. He took Aslan in and did the operation no questions asked. From going to one vet to another with all different outcomes of his injury, Dr Colin helped everyway possible. He stood by my mum and reassured her Aslan will be fine. The staff are also very lovely and helpful aswell. Will be using your clinic from now on. Thankyou Dr Colin for helping out Aslan with his eye. Read Less

I have been coming to this clinic for 12 years and had no such issues until now. The staff there are always so helpful and nice when i came in or rang up. My dog had some skin issues recently and was also receiving arthritis injections at the same time of treatment with Dr Neil, as skin issues can be tricky to treat we tried medications and antibiotics which did not help to then going on to external creams to see what helped. This was going on weekly as the arthritis injections needed done weekly so we were on top of it. For my dogs last injection i was unfortunately over seas and asked a family member to take my dog in for her last injection, she was seen by Dr Colin. Dr Colin instead of providing my dog with its last injection decided to undergo treatment on my dog when he was not asked to. He took my dog down the back of the clinic, shaved her, put her under Anesthesia, all with out any consent from my family member to be then told he didnt know what was wrong and a specialist would be needed. My family member was shocked at the fact he had not asked permission to treat the dog and the bill at the end of the appointment as i had only provided the money for the injection. The vet bill was extortionate and he had put her back on the medication that did not work as well as charging me for another consult and unnecessary work. Once i heard of what had happened i sent Dr Colin an email to ask for an explanation on what had happened and why he felt he had to intervene when she was already seeking veterinary care with Neil. As i live on a budget with Uni i asked if he could drop the consult fee and i would pay the rest off when i return, he replied to my email in a very abrupt and rude manner stating my financial issues were not off his concern and if he had not of intervene with my dog it would've been neglect, he also noted that i was lucky he did not charge me for a return email. I was constantly at the vets dealing with skin issues on my dog and was paying my accounts in full every time to then be treated in this way was deplorable and from one health worker to another i could not understand his work ethics. I will never return again and will be sure to not recommend the practice to others again. I also find it quite interesting while trying to get in contact with Dr Neil about the whole issue to find out he has since left the practice as well.Read Less

Came to the clinic in November in an emergency stressed situation, which resulted in me having to make the tough decision on putting my daughters two year old jack Russell down. Which was what vet told me was really the only option. I was distraught as we all are in this situation. Vet then went and got the drugs out the needle in the dog still distraught I am crying and can barely breath was asked to go and PAY for the dogs bill before he could administer it ! What the actual f**k! Then I stood at the counter waiting to pay while to vet nurses sat around chatting. To then I had to interrupt them to pay for my dog to be put down ? Where is the compassion? The professionalism? So discusted in this practice I myself have done vet nursing as well as working with greyhounds and race horses so I know it's in the business to understand that these bad things do happen and these de idioms do need to be made, but a little compassion and understanding would go a mile, perhaps even a card in the mail or a letter of condolences? I literally live a street away from the clinic and it breaks my heart to drive passed it every day.Read Less

Thank you for looking after Pablo and trying your very best to investigate what was wrong with him. He's back to normal now even better! I've been to Railway Avenue a few times and I wasn't entirely happy with their service the past couple of visits. I'm so glad I switched vets to you guys! Thank you so much to all the amazing doctors esp. Dr Neal! Read Less

The kind people at Champion Lakes came to the rescue of our pet dog Sadie who while staying in the local kennels had a massive stroke. Their care and kindness in looking after Sadie in her hour of need is much appreciated. While nothing could be done for Sadie except make her passing as comfortable as possible their care, understanding and support for Mark from Big Foot Kennels who had the sad task of dealing with the situation while we were on holidays is greatly appreciated. Sadie was a retired greyhound and while not an old dog had her issues. Shes now at peace . Thank you all for the lovely keepsakes and for the care you showed our girl. Pharoah family. Read Less

I went here for the first time today, I have been meaning to switch vets for a long time. I took in our new puppy Penny and our older dog Harrison for Penny's check up. Harrison just came for the ride, the staff are so lovely, Dr Lauren really listened to my concerns and gave me some wonderful advice. I am so glad I came to Champion Lakes Vets - I am looking forward to coming back in two weeks for Penny's next vaccinationRead Less

We would like to thank Dr Colin Sherry at Champion Lake Vets as we seem to have one very happy girl at home now :) her eye looks clear every day no weeping or wincing & thank to being shown how to correctly administer eye drops, Tequila is so good when it comes to doing the drops now. Also she seem to have her appetite back now no sure if it is the tablets or if it is because she is not in pain or being hindered by her eye.... either way it is so nice to see her happy & back to being her cheeky self... seriously I have been to a lot of Vets over the years but never have I found a Vet that is so great with animals & understanding them so well.... Highly recommend Dr Colin Sherry to everyone if you have any kind of animal that needs the attention of a vet then head to see Dr Colin Sherry & the friendly staff such a nice environment for your animals to be in should they need any vet care :)Read Less

Took my puppy here for the first time, wasn't to sure how she would be as she is only 6 weeks old and was receiving her first needle. Colin was fantastic, nice and friendly and was very helpful as well with providing us ways to train her and what to feed her. The way he treated her was amazing and knew what he was doing.. Very affordable and quick as well. Definitely 100% recommend these guys! Hats off to you for the way you conduct yourself as a business. You all should be very proud. Will see you guys in 2 weeks for her second vaccination!Read Less

My first dealings were with Dr Lauren who had the unenviable job of telling me our dog had to be put to sleep. She was very professional yet compassionate and made a heartbreaking time a little easier to bear. The centre took care of most of the arrangements and also sent us a sympathy card. I was glad that he had such a caring team looking after him. We now have a new puppy who Dr Neal has been attending to and today Dr Colin. The entire team are amazing and I can't recommend them highly enough Read Less
