BE AWARE. The price structure is 300% on the medicines. DONT agree to anything befopre you get a price agreed and then check on line. you dont have to buy the medicines from them. They also charge £17.60 for a precirption which is much higher than other vets in the area. We took our dog in their for flea treatment and come out with a £230.00 bill - madness, never going back again. the Vet "Shaun" just did what he thought was right for the dog withiout anty consultation with us as the owner. NOT VERY PROFESSIONAL. When confronted about this - total denial. Read Less

An excellent vet's, they have been looking after me for over 14 year's, they always give my staff the best advice and me the best care. They also looked after my staff's previous dog's, I have been to their Thatcham, Tadley and of course Donnington practices over the year's are they all offer excellent care, because as you know us dog's only accept the best.

Can't thank you all enough for your treatment of Flossie as the patient and me as the client. You all exceeded my expectations on every front, not just for the technical skills in surgery. It's lovely to have your horse treated with kindness and as an indivdual, rather than just another septic hock in box 4. And you get well in excess of 5 stars for your communication skills from the moment I arrived on the yard. There are far too few vet practices who a) phone every time exactly when they said they would, and b) treat clients as if they have a brain, and might actually like to hear some of the technicalities. So pleased with everything about your treatment of Flossie, I've been singing your praises to all her visitors! She's completed her in hand walking (I calculate 50 miles, no wonder I need a new pair of shoes, never mind her), and I sat on her for the first time today. The outcome is looking excellent, as per your prognosis. Thank you all so much.Read Less

Just want to say Thank You all in the equine team that helped with Abbot. We were kept informed on every step. Before he went down to surgery, and we got a call as soon as he was out to say that it went very well, explained everything and the after care plan ready for when we picked Abbot up...stressful at times but we knew he was in the right hands. x Read Less

On two separate occasions I have had to take my mare to Donnington for unrelated issues - the first time I was nervous as many would be, leaving my beautiful mare and not knowing the outcome. On the second visit, nearly a year later and facing a much more serious injury, I felt calmer than before and happy that no matter what, she would be receiving the best care possible. It is because of the fantastic vets and staff that my mare is still with me today and continues life as a ridden horse. They all went out of their way to make me feel welcome when I visited, usually after everybody else had left and gone home. And you would think that with hundreds of horses coming in and leaving again over the months that one more would be just another number. Not at this place - on arrival, despite there being nearly a year between our visits, two of the people on the yard recognised her and even remembered which stable she had been in. I know they may have seen her file prior to arrival but personal touches count. I am only sorry I didn't complete this review at the time and so it seems a little late. Thank you so much to the team. Emily and Shimira.Read Less
