Thank you, Pina, for your wonderful review. Dr. Catherine is delighted that you were happy with her consultation, and we absolutely loved meeting your newest addition—she's beyond adorable! We really appreciate the trust you've placed in us and will continue working hard to earn it every visit. Thank you also for always being so kind to everyone at Blakehurst Vet.
The vets at Blakehurst Vet are always wonderful! So much care is taken and my most recent visit was wonderful! My Bunny Lala had never been so calm at the vet before and they also helped me clip her nails after mentioning I struggle at home to do it!
Been going to them since we moved to the area and have been so happy.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this and for being so nice to everyone at Blakehurst Vet. It really means a lot to us.
We are really happy to hear that Bunny Lala felt calm during her visit. That is always our goal, especially for pets who can find vet visits a bit stressful. We are also glad we could help with her nails and take a bit of pressure off you at home.
Thank you for sticking with us since moving to the area and for trusting us with gorgeous Bunny Lala. We love looking after her and appreciate your kind words more than you know.

Blakehurst Vet has looked after our poodles for many years. We have always found them professional, knowledgeable and friendly. We fully recommend them.

Thank you Nicole for this wonderful review and for giving us five stars. Thank you also for placing your trust in us to care for your beautiful pooches. We love your poodles!
I went for a holiday for two weeks and entrusted my beautiful cat at Blakehurst Vet. I appreciate all the updates and photos. Also, they always monitor if my cat is eating, peeing, pooing etc. It's my first time to leave my cat, and it's scary for me to leave her to someone whom she doesn't know or met, but the staff made it seamless. My cat was spoiled with love and care while I was away. Thank you for ensuring that my cat's wellbeing is a priority. Special thanks to Corey who is very hands-on and the whole staff.

Hi Jhon, thank you so much for this lovely review. We know how nerve-racking it can feel to leave your cat for the first time and we are so pleased that you felt reassured throughout her stay. Corey and the team absolutely adored looking after her and made sure every little detail was monitored so she stayed happy, healthy and comfortable. And you're right, Corey is an absolute rock star hotel manager. We are so lucky to have him. Thank you for trusting us with your beautiful girl and for being such a kind client. Your words mean a lot to all of us.
I moved to the area couple of years ago and was fortunate to find a wonderful vet for our Labrador, Ollie. Vet Hamish is incredibly professional and kind, making every visit a pleasant experience. They have been attentive to Ollie’s needs and have provided excellent care, ensuring his health and well-being. I highly recommend this vet to anyone looking for compassionate and expert care for their pets.

Hi Bo, thank you very much for this amazing review. We are so pleased that you found us when you moved to the area and that Ollie has been happy visiting our team. Hamish and the nurses think the world of him and it means a lot to know you feel he is so well cared for. Thank you for being such lovely clients and for recommending us. Your kind words have made our day.
Catherine and the staff were so caring even with their heavy workload. They promptly made time to see to Loki's wound as we turned up in a last minute panic. They are the best. Thank you all 💜

Thank you very much Issy for this wonderful review. We are thrilled you and Loki are pleased with our service! And, we are grateful you chose us to care for beautiful Loki. Thank you for being such lovely clients. Your review has made our day!
Hamish and the team have been the sole carers and supporters through the lives of all of our fur babies since the late 1990’s! They supported us incredibly, including during the last moments of their precious lives! I can’t recommend this vet highly enough! Thank you and thank you for taking care of our little Fern yesterday during her procedure x

Thank you very, very much for this beautiful review. It is such a privilege for our whole team to care for your wise pooches. And, it means a great deal to Catherine, Hamish and our nurses to know that you all feel relaxed and supported when you visit. Thank you for trusting us with their care and for being such a kind and appreciative client.
Dr Hamish Bathgate and his team at Blakehurst Vet have been taking excellent care of our cat, Felix since 2008. Testament to the extremely high standard of veterinarian care received, Felix is 18 years of age and Dr Hamish has advised us recently that Felix is his third oldest feline client. Dr Hamish can’t talk to the animals like Dr Dolittle but comes very close with his knowledge and expertise on cats when treating Felix. Our cat enjoys seeing Dr Hamish. When Blakehurst Vet has been closed Felix doesn’t like seeing vets at other practices and reacts by hissing, fluffing up and carrying on going berserk. He was even barred from a vet at Peakhurst for attacking staff members. Felix was one of the first client’s at the palatial animal accomodation centre, The Hotel For Cats which we highly recommend. We believe taking our pet to Blakehurst Vet over many years has greatly attributed to our cat, Felix health, well being and longetivity. Great work Dr Hamish and your team at Blakehurst Vet. You guys do a superb and thorough job giving excellent care and looking after our cat.

Richard, we are speechless. This might be the best review we have ever received and we thank you for taking the time to write it. You have officially claimed the title of favourite client and Felix has been promoted to feline royalty. His long life is a credit to the love and care he gets at home.
Felix is the most gorgeous little tabby and we feel lucky that he trusts us with his care. The fact that he chooses to be on his best behaviour for Dr Hamish and saves the theatrics for other clinics only makes us love him more.
We also want to thank you for always being so kind to our staff. Your warmth makes every visit a pleasure and it means a great deal to the whole team.
Thank you, Richard.

Thank you, Caroline. It has been a pleasure looking after your gorgeous little pooch. He is too adorable for words and we love seeing you both when you visit us. You are always so kind and that really does mean a lot to our whole team. Thank you.
We’re so grateful for the amazing team at Blakehurst Vet. Our toy poodle, Travis, always receives such gentle and caring treatment here. We mostly see Vet Catherine, who is incredibly kind and thorough, she always takes the time to explain everything and makes sure Travis is comfortable. Anytime I’ve had a concern, they’ve managed to fit us in so promptly, which I really appreciate. The reception staff are also so lovely and welcoming every time we visit. Thank you all so much for the care and kindness you show, we’re very thankful to have found such a wonderful clinic!
