Awful vets that lack any empathy or communication. Passed around between 6 vets from this clinic which all have their own thoughts on our dogs condition. Left waiting for results of a potentially dying dog only to find out the vet has left without giving us a call and we would have to wait 2 days to find out her results! After spending over £2000 on bills we went to another clinic and logged a complaint against sheriff highways. It then took the clinical director two weeks to call me, which was at 7pm and she was the most condescending woman I have ever spoken to. She wouldn’t let me talk unless I shouted over her and then she accused our new vets of having different results from theirs and giving us incorrect information about the results! Do yourself a favour and avoid this clinic like the plague. Read Less

I cannot recommend enough the care and support provided by Jack and his team. Her treatment continues with regular visits, we are kept well informed of her progress and everything is fully explained.

Our Chihuahua Coco needed extensive surgery to her left leg. We were recommended by a second opinion to go to Sheriffs Highway and to allow Jack to do this for Coco. We are so glad we took this recommendation, Coco was operated on by Jack and what a job he did. This was, to use his words, ''brutal'' surgery for such small bones on such a small dog. Her operation was performed by a man with such talent, she was well looked after in the hospital by the nursing staff for three days. Now nine days later she is back to herself although her recovery has a way to go yet. All this i feel was down to the right man for the job, the dedicated care and attention by ALL the staff and the after care Coco has and is receiving. Would recommend Sheriffs Highway to anyone who wants the best care for their animal. Read Less

I pass this vets every morning on my way to work and when on a Saturday evening our rabbit looked a bit off colour and I couldn't get through to our usual vets....I rang them up for some advice. They were lovely and informed me of out of hours charges and asked all the right questions before I packed up the poorly pet all the way through to the vets and turned up on their door. We were seen straight away and the rabbit was thoroughly examined and treated with absolutely everything available, and we were sent home with everything we needed to try to nurse her better at home (as rabbits stress and can get more sick in strange environments). After a few hours and no improvement we rang back (at midnight) and were told to come straight down.....which we did. Unfortunately our rabbit died en route but the vet and assistant were very caring, very supportive and assured us that there was nothing else we could have done, confirmed that the rabbit had not died in pain or had died of anything our other pets could catch and discussed whether we wanted to take her home to bury or have her cremated and whether we wanted to collect the ashes. They also offered us a post-mortem if we wanted to confirm the diagnosis (but this was un-neccessary as the illness we suspected was what she was diagnosed and treated with and everyone concerned was sure she had died of stasis - as we initially thought).
The staff were very kind and caring, they filled out all our insurance paperwork for us - no hassle on our part and were geniunely upset that our rabbit hadn't made it. I would definitely go back and was very reassured by the care we received....but hope not to have to go back (if you know what I mean). Read Less

After a few hours and no improvement we rang back (at midnight) and were told to come straight down.....which we did. Unfortunately our rabbit died en route but the vet and assistant were very caring, very supportive and assured us that there was nothing else we could have done, confirmed that the rabbit had not died in pain or had died of anything our other pets could catch and discussed whether we wanted to take her home to bury or have her cremated and whether we wanted to collect the ashes. They also offered us a post-mortem if we wanted to confirm the diagnosis (but this was un-neccessary as the illness we suspected was what she was diagnosed and treated with and everyone concerned was sure she had died of stasis - as we initially thought).
The staff were very kind and caring, they filled out all our insurance paperwork for us - no hassle on our part and were geniunely upset that our rabbit hadn't made it. I would definitely go back and was very reassured by the care we received....but hope not to have to go back (if you know what I mean). Read Less
