After a very bad experience at my previous vet, I asked my dog walking friends who they went to. Whenever I heard Summerdale referred to, it was always followed by great compliments about the practice and more specifically about Alan Hatch.

If there was on option for 0/5 I would use that. I strongly recommend you consider other vet surgeries before visiting this one for the welfare of your animal. My late cat, Alvin, was put down last year. He had been registered with summerdale for 5 years, as a female.

They then call us to say he has a very rare form of diabetes and is too far gone to save. Turns out that during the unnecessary spaying operation they put him through, they disrupted his pancreas. If it wasn't for this vets my cat would be alive and well. He was only 5. Read Less
