Can't say that I had a positive experience and had to get a second opinion after my pet wasn't given antibiotics. Female vet was great but when I returned and saw Tim he was rather rude and told me I was only there because my usual vet was closed - this went the case I was just concerned about my pet however my concerns were dismissed and so I had to go see another vet. Would avoid unless desperateRead Less

Pleased to say I read the Facebook posts before registering my two elderly Pugs with this practice. I don't want a lecture or judgement before we've even stepped over the door. Shame on you Alma Veterinary Practice scaring owners of the short nose breeds from taking their precious dog's to the vet for fear of an 8K bill. Read Less

I've taken many pets to Alma over the years, and adopted 2 cats through their RSPCA affiliation. All the staff have always been great and it is great to see a low turnover of them - some very familiar faces remain. Yesterday, we had to have our beloved Jeffery (ginger cat) euthanised. Mr Timms knew Jeffery was only young and how upset we were. He'd done all he could to help Jeff and us but it was finally time to say goodbye. The compassion and gentleness he showed us was very much appreciated and a horrible event was made easier by Mr Timms being very honest with us. We'll continue to use the surgery, I can't imagine trusting anyone else. Read Less

Every time I have gone into Alma Vets they have been marvellous. Putting my pets at ease and doing a professional job. I just rang them because my dog ate a piece of chewing gum and they gave me free advice with the same friendly concerned and professional manner they have during paid appointments. Would recommend to everyone Read Less

Been taking our cats here for about 22 years. All the vets are lovely - very caring and gentle. All our cats lived long healthy lives (18 and 21 years. That's 100 in human years) due for the most part to the excellent care they received. The vets really seem to care about our pets and put themselves out to help them- even when we rang them in the middle of the night once! I would highly recommend this practice. The vets work extremely hard and are all very nice people. Read Less

Never ever have I been shown so much kindness, after my beautiful boy sooty cat was put to sleep today the vet a middle age man with glasses was so kind and respectful before and after my sooty was put to sleep made things a lot more easier for me even though it didn't look it with me balling my eyes out as I lived my best friend in the world. Thank you alma vets the best vets around Read Less

Fitch had his first vet visit last night to start his inoculations, flea /worm treatment and microchip. Alma vets was great, very helpful staff offering lots of helpful advice and answering any questions we had. The surgery is very convenient for town with ample free parking. See you in two weeks Read Less

Had to take Millie (Bichon Frise) for a consultation about a tumour on her neck, just below the ear. The operation to remove this was performed on August 28th, and she recovered quickly, and is now back to old self. Millie is 8 years old, approx, and the vet showed kindness when handling her, both at the initial consulation and with the pre-med. The stitching used was very neat, and dissolvable, so no further trauma or expense involved. The total fee and consulation was, I feel, very reasonable as have spoken to other pet owners and often their fees have been over 200 and rising for similar ops. I thnk them for their treatment of Millie, I think it was exlempary.Jackie Scarborough Read Less

I was very surprised to see a Facebook message saying that someone had found a deceased cat and you had suggested the option of putting the body in the bin! The finder of the cat took to a different vet (as not happy with advice to put in bin) and they scanned the cat and the owner was found. Just wondered why you didnt suggest scanning cat first?

Earlier this week i lost my dog Jenson after almost 14 years, all the staff at Alma have been fantastic all the time ive been there, Mr Timms and Karen made what was the hardest day of my life that bit more managable with there compassion and caring approach. Jenson was a lively character , mischief and him came together but he was never judged, it will take a while, but when im ready for another it will be Alma i trust unconditionaly, i recommend them to anyone.

Always seem to be genuinely concerned about the animals, and always give a 1st class service. The prices are reasonable and the staff are very friendly - oh and there is parking around the back - great in the centre of scarborough. Read Less

Quite difficult to 'review' a vets sugery - everyone knows what kind of things they offer, after all, but this surgery has taken care of my dogs for the last few years, so I feel like it deserves a recommendation. The staff are very good, genuinely concerned, very helpful and capable. The vets themselves are honest, friendly and will give you the advice they feel is best for your animal. They offer all the services you'd expect to find - from open surgeries to specific appointment times, and will help all your household pets - cats, dogs, rabbits and so on. They also offer a cat rehoming service which a friend has used in the past and would reccommend. The prices they charge are pretty much the industry standard, but, as I've outlined above, the service is superb. I;ve used this surgery for almost five years and will continue to do so as long as I'm living in the town. Read Less
