Has been our family veterinary center for over 30 year's. treated our dogs,cats, rabbits, ferret. Provides a loving carring service. All staff very friendly and helpful. I loved the way the put to sleep my 15 years old German Shepherd, in my front room in my arms. He was able to pass away peaceful in familia surrounded by family stress free. They have seen us on occasion as a emergency opening up. Out of hours. This service is priceless if you have a sick animals needing a vet out of hours. The location is central to town. Modern well run practice. Routine surgery done on sight, your pets don't have to be shipped out of town, for surgery and returned, I wouldn't like to be a pet taken from owner. Put into crate, transportation by road, general anesthetic, then shipped back to your surgery for collecting. That is why I prefer Avenue Vets. Occasionally a animal may require specialized surgery. But routine spaying broken bones, general surgery, dental. You know your pets are safe and well cared for. Read Less

Amazing care as always from the team at Ashfield House. From ringing up on Tuesday and being asked to come almost straight down for an urgent appointment, to Scone being admitted by Charlotte for 30hrs, I was kept informed how she was doing, what her results showed and was always reassured that Scone was in the best hands. Home now with a much happier cat. Thanks again. Read Less

We rushed our 5 y/o Maltese here as an emergency at midnight on Sunday the 8th of Jan, within an hour of him not being able to urinate due to a calcium-oxylate stone lodged in his urethra. Now, when treated immediately and adequately with surgery, medication and constant monitoring, the prognosis is good, however he took a sudden decline. What followed was incredibly stressful and painful for our beautiful boy and sadly we had to do the unthinkable. I genuinely think that although Ashfield operate in a compassionate manner, I'm not convinced that the person who was responsible for him when I took him in acted swiftly enough. I also believe that there was a lack of knowledge regarding the Maltese breed across the surgeons and nurses, as a result I believe some of his symptoms were misunderstood. I have learnt much from this experience. If you are looking for generic care for your pets, Ashfield will probably suffice. But if you need somewhere in an emergency that can really make a difference when it matters, in my opinion you should look elsewhere. (I haven't mentioned names here because that would be unreasonable of me, despite the upset).Read Less
