If you care about your animal avoid this vets. They are greedy, immoral and unscrupulous. They care more about how much they can fleece you for than the wellbeing of your pet. Used to be a good vet but are now extraordinarily greedy. Check your bill as they like to overcharge thinking we are too dumb to question it. Read Less

I cannot recommend this hospital highly enough. I have been going there with my Springer Spaniels since 2002.
The care and compassion of Dr Tony Paige and his staff has been excellent.
Dr Paige is always kind, gentle and considerate to his patients and their owners, he explains everything so you can understand and always explains the options.
One of my dogs had an operation a few years ago, she recovered very well and although it was on her soft tummy, you can't even see the scar.
Recently we had to put our beloved D'artagnan to sleep, and heartbreaking though it was, we knew, and Dr Paige knew it was the right thing. He gave us 8 extra months with our best hairy friend and we will be eternally grateful for that time with him.
This practice is spotless clean, good parking, good waiting facilities and the reception staff and nurses are fantastic.
I would not take my dogs anywhere else.
Thank you. Read Less

I got recommended this vet from mutual friends who take their pets here, although, I am fairly disappointed. we registered our Staffordshire Bull Terrier here and the service was brilliant. We soon started seeing changes in our dogs skin and he was itching a lot to the point he would start bleeding so we took him in April/May regarding this and got told he had an allergy to something, however, no tests were done to rule out any other causes. Anyways, he was prescribed Apoquel and every time his course of this ran out we were back to square one. I mentioned a skin scrape only to be shot down and told there is no point as it's definitely an allergy, how they came to this conclusion I'll never know. I then looked into an allergy test to be told they wouldn't do this either and wanted me to wait until he had been though another season, so basically to let my poor boy suffer for another year at least! We took him today to get a second opinion from another Veterinary Clinic and got more help from them in one consultation that the past roughly 6 months at Ayrton. I'm not impressed at all with their level of service.Read Less

I cannot recommend this place more highly! Our dog has had a growth that started as a small pimple and over the course of 4 years grew into a giant horrible bleeding mass. Our old vets would not entertain removing it no matter how many times I asked them over the four years.
After getting exasperated I went to Ayrton and spoke with a fantastic vet called Mair. Within a few days the grow was removed under general anaesthetic and two months later our dog is absolutely perfect. The whole experience from the cleanliness of the place to the lovely reception staff was fantastic. During and after the operation the Vet Mair was absolutely outstanding and I cannot put into words how kind and compassionate she was. Read Less
