I just want to say a big thank you to the vet who saw fetty today! My dog was really scared and nervous to return to a new vets as she has had bad experiences at prior ones he was clam with fetty and fully understanding of her become very scared and trying to protect herself yet still trying to be loving he could see this from the start!! Tried his best to make her happy and didnt keep pushing her we decided to go with a medication that should clam her and make her relaxed to be seen the next day i also was not charged for the initial appointment just the medication so this vets is 100% not just about money! They seem to care more than enough for animals and i cant wait to have them as my regular vets! Thank you again so much for the fast registering and the same day appointment!

Have only been with Paxton a couple of years since moving to Croydon in 2023, but have always found the staff - both medical and administrative - to be very friendly and super helpful. Appointments have always run to time, and are easy to book online. Highly recommended!
