About us
Your local independent and trusted vet
Our practice was founded by Rip Kirby in 1992 with the ethos of being a friendly and approachable place to bring your pet. We are still committed to this, whilst providing the best possible care and treatment for all your pets. The practice remains independently owned by the vets who work in it, the only one in the area now. Being independent ensures the practice employees are motivated only by making pets better, not by keeping shareholders happy.
Our Practices:
We're a gold standard Cat Friendly Clinic
We're a gold standard Cat Friendly Clinic
We make an extra special effort with all our feline patients, as we know how upsetting a trip to the vets can be for them. We're proud to have attained the Gold Standard Cat Friendly Clinic award, which means your cat is in safe hands.

Reviews
Meet just a few of our happy owners and their pets!
Friendly and attentive staff! I know that they have my cat's best interest at heart as much as we do!
Great vets.
Really caring and honest vets. Feel really confident taking our animals there.
Very friendly team who always make sure that your furry bestie is happy and healthy
Always friendly and helpful, and the dog doesn't mind going there which is a bonus 👍🏻
Kind, friendly and very thorough - certainly the best vets I have been to with my cats.
Brilliant vets ,competitive pricing and staff are fabulous!
A good professional service
Friendly knowledgeable staff, very caring and efficient. Highly recommend
Always there when you need them and all the staff are wonderful with the animals and their people , I couldn't ask for a better vet practice. P. S. Please include Broadway practice with this comment x
Great staff , who have supported us through a lot with our kitty's
I would recommend this veterinary practice to anyone . They genuinely care about the animals (our babies) over charging extortionate amounts for treatments and extra services that you don't need ! From the lovely receptionist to all of the other amazing staff the care you and your animals are given is five star absolutely !! The vets actually get down on the floor with your pets and are so friendly and minimally clinical.
Still an independent practice with real affordable prices
Very good place. They seem to be good value.
I have recently changed vets and I'm happy to recommend the excellent compassionate and thoughtful service my pets have received. From the lovely caring receptionists to equally caring and competent vets I am most impressed. I initially thought that this particular veterinary practice would be expensive but have discovered that the prices have been very reasonable and compare favourably. Thank you Ellie, Lucy and Kelly, you are doing a great job!
Our cat has used this place for a good couple of years. He hates it. I don't think that's a reflection on the quality of service, he just doesn't like being checked over. The staff have been lovely. I think their charges are reasonable. I'm sure the cat will continue to use them all of his medical needs.
Most caring vets I have ever known...my boy was seriously ill and I couldnt have asked for better care for him...unfortunately he lost the fight but not without vets pulling out all the stops to save him....they let me visit and stay with him for hours while he was still here and after
Saw us at very short notice before closing and gave very friendly and helpful service, reasonable price and would definitely recommend.
Private practice so helpful and very careing. Piece of mind.
Brilliant vets
Have always been brilliant with our girls even 3am in the morning when I'm panicking
Kind friendly caring staffAffordable and flexible with appointments.Took our cat willow there and they kept her so calm you can really tell all the staff really care about the animals there treating and caring for.Would definitely recommend them to anyone in weymouth or dorchester looking to register their pet for a vet.
Excellent service. Vets obviously love the animals and deliver the best care.
Absolutely lovely people. So caring, update you. My Pup loves them all. Have complete confidence leaving my pets with them.
