We were sent to this veterinary practice by our own vets as this was a late afternoon emergency situation and were received by two considerate receptionists who had been prept by our vets. There was one vet on duty at this practice in Llantwit who examined our beautiful very ill Lurcher Bryn. Unfortunately our boy's symptoms needed further investigation and the vet immediately arranged for a colleague to receive us in the Cowbridge practice. These two vets went above and beyond a normal consultation and stayed well after the normal practice hours. They could so easily have advised us to take our dog to the emergency out of hours practice in Cardiff; but they didn't and persevered finding out a diagnosis. Finally after blood tests and examinations, an ultrasound scan revealed that Bryn had a tumour in his stomach, and that this mass was quite large. This news presented my husband and I with a painful decision, which resulted in us putting our beloved Bryn to sleep. All through this ordeal both vets worked relentlessly and compassionately to help us. We have always looked after rescue Greyhounds and Lurcher's and I would certainly recommend WEST FARM veterinary practice as one of the best practices I have ever encountered. Thank you so much for your dedication and compassion in responding to an emergency situation. Karen & Peter Baker, St Athan Read Less
