I have very recently started seeing the Westbar team for my dog and I cant fault a single thing. From the first interaction on the phone, the reception staff and all the vets, every one of them have been amazing and so helpful. Not only that, their pricing is reasonable and you aren't treated like a number or a way to just make money.
If you are in the Banbury/Southam area and need a vet this team is who you need to use. I've used other local vets and they don't compare on any level.
These guys are the team to use!

A very helpful, kind and caring veterinary hospital. We found their costs very reasonable too. They looked after our little dog Alfie for the past two years and we highly recommend them.

My family have recently had my beautiful and loving cat Casper put to sleep by Sophie. I've just come home and received a handwritten card expressing her condolences and remembering Casper as the handsome and gentle cat he was. I will never forget the way Sophie was so gentle, thoughtful and kind, I couldn't have asked for Casper to have a better experience and opportunity for peace than with Sophie. If you can let her know personally that the Davis family offer her many thanks and we deeply appreciate the support at this current time. Please continue your amazing work.

Westbar vets is more than a vets, the staff go above and beyond to care for our pets and treat them like family. Throughout the years they have cared for many of our animals and seen us through a few deaths sadly but have always been incredibly sensitive and caring. Most recently I received a beautiful hand written sympathy card for our dear rabbit Pickle and the words meant so much. More than a 5* vets!!!

I don't really believe in veterinary practice ratings as a whole since vet skill and their respective "bedside manners" vary so much from one vet to the next. Sophie is however an exceptional vet. She has dealt with my many pets for 6 years + and has always done an exceptional job, taking time out to explain everything to me, and genuinely cares for animals deeply. As good as you will ever find, anywhere. The support staff and nurses have always been fabulous and very caring too. Like an earlier post, I moved to West Bar because I'd found other local vets glib and aloof, in much the same was that some doctors are if you question the diagnosis. I'd recommend them strongly.

Unfortunately our visit to West Bar Vets was an Emergency while away for the weekend. The vet on call was very nice and requested we leave our dog overnight so she could have x rays the next day which was a Saturday. Unfortunately it was sad news the vet who gave the sad call and the receptionist were very kind and sympathetic. We also received a card off the vet today expressing her sympathy regarding the loss of our beloved dog even though they had never met her before. Thank you for showing how much you care for both animal and owners, something you don't see at every vets and we had some comfort knowing she was in the right hands at the end.

Charlotte has been incredible in helping us with our rabbit, we attended the rabbit awareness week and have been making toys for Mr Nibbles at home- which is great fun with my two year old. Mr Nibbles was castrated Friday and the follow up and after care has been amazing. Most of the staff are lovely but I really feel she has gone above and beyond :)

I recently took my two cats Schmidt and Hildi to see Sophie and she was nothing short of caring and attentive. Schmidt who is usually terrified of veterinary surgeries was calm and happy. Hildi who has only recently joined my family was very skittish, but Sophie handled her well and I felt confident with her abilities. Also for once I was actually listened to. I have been to see other vets in the local Banbury area and I always felt like I could never get my concerns across without being ignored. West Bar has friendly staff, great advice and a calm atmosphere. It's also affordable. Two checkups, two blood tests, two flea/worming treatments and a plug-in feliway only came to just over 200. Definitely the best vets in the Banburyshire area.
