Stewart in dundonald was amazing. We had to put our dog to sleep and he was amazing . You could tell he just loved his job everyone the sad bits . Framton just took to him and the prossess of putting him to sleep and the after care was second to none . We could not thank all the staff enough

I've been using ashwood vets since I moved in locally, I have a tortoise and I wasnt sure if they'd be able to see him. They have always been quick to get me in, the reception staff are lovely and friendly and the vets are very kind and informative, along as I live close enough I will always use ashwoods vets.

I had been to 2 other vets in Belfast with my new dog before coming to Ashwood and the service I have received from Ashwood has been flawless. AAAAAA******* My beautiful new rescue dog Reuben needed some surgery which I was so worried about and I got Lauren from Ashwood and she really was magnificent and made myself and Reuben feel at ease. She is so knowledgeable and at one stage there were several options which I could go down with Reuben and she took her time and explained them all in layman's terms which I loved. Reuben went in for his operation and when I left him in I felt confident and knew he was in the best hands. Something which I have not experienced before with other vets. I received whats app messages from Ashwood telling me when Reuben was in surgery and when Reuben was out of surgery - then one of the nurses Penny phoned me to let me know how he was and to arrange a pick up time and they also sent me photos of him after surgery❤️. I have had a checkup with Reuben this morning and everything is very positive! It really puts your mind at ease and shows you the care that Ashwood puts into running their surgery successfully - it is so hard to find an old school vets like this now that really care. I am a new customer and am so glad I have found my Vets for Reuben! Will highly recommend to anyone I now am speaking to and my parents will be changing vets too to go to Lauren from Ashwood too! Thanks to all the team at Ashwood!

The care and compassion from the staff are second to none, I have never known a dog like mine who enjoys going to the vet because of the fuss made by the nurses.

Best vets around! Niall and the team have always took such good care of my three furbabies, so much so, Ottis jumps onto the table for examinations now! With all three dogs combined, we’ve been through multiple cruciate ligament surgery’s, x-rays, ultrasound and blood tests and each time, the team have took the time to explain everything in detail, ease my nerves and provide the most caring, safe environment. I wouldn’t trust any other team with my babies!
