Thank you so much to Carla & Team for caring for Milo on the weekend, this was his 3rd time with you due to his illness and once again the care, compassion and treatment has been phenomenal 🙏
You went above and beyond, taking the time to explain everything thoroughly despite me being in a complete daze ..... sorry just devastated at his decline that was so rapid it was so frightening.
Without your dedication I doubt very much he'd still be here, I honestly can't thank you enough.
My little warrior is doing well, he's bright, very sleepy, taking his meds some with ham for bribery purposes 🙈 steady walks 💙🐾

Phenomenal. Cannot praise highly enough. Took the time to get comfortable with my dog and were both pragmatic and understanding at the same time. Absolute height of professionalism.

So far so good. Treatment is on going for our dog Katra but they have been absolutely lovely, kind and helpful. Maria has been amazing helping with our dogs issue that has been referred. Hoping after nearly 2 years the end may be in site fingers crossed.
Reception staff have been really lovely and kind too. Thank you Cave Vets

Words can't describe the sense of gratitude we feel towards the team at cave . Big heart felt thank you to Tom Hardy, who made our last few months with daisy a little bit easier. The care he showed both daisy and us makes us feel he is the most efficient and caring person we've ever met. The tears are still coming, but our respect for Tom will never stop. THANK YOU

Our 9 1/2 year old ESS - Safi, was bleeding from her mouth and had extensive bruising to her abdomen, which appeared overnight.
We felt terrible and thought it was something we had neglected to notice.
Following an urgent visit to the vet, she was quickly referred to Cave Vet Specialists.
On arrival we were immediately greeted by Nele (pronounced Neela), who took Safi straight in for an examination, then when Safi was settled, she spent as much time as we needed, explaining everything and answering any concerns or queries.
Safi was diagnosed with IMTP, an auto immune disease that attacks the blood and causes spontaneous bleeding.
She was kept in for 3 days, with around the clock care, by which time her treatment had kicked in, and she began to make platelets that took her out of danger.
She is still on treatment, and will be until she has stable blood results.
Safi is a different dog already 🤞
She is not out of the woods, and there is a risk of relapse, but I would not hesitate to recommend Cave Vet Specialists to anyone who has a poorly pooch and for whom your usual vet is unable to treat.

Our little Chihuahua Dotty Sue was referred to Cave from our local veterinary practice due to a suspected spinal neck injury leaving us to fear the worse. Upon arrival we were greeted by Simon Bertram, a specialist in neurology…
We were both totally blown away with not only his breadth of knowledge regards potential breed related aliments but also his ability to converse with us to answer any questions in depth that we posed. We really appreciated his straightforward matter of fact approach when delivering his prognosis leaving us fully informed of all options available.
In short we left with far more knowledge than we entered with. Never felt so reassured of professional expertise so no matter what the outcome for our little dog we strongly recommend Cave for both their expertise and professionalism.

What a great place staff friendly and helpful from start to finish. The reception staff helpful and caring. Nothing too much trouble, the Surgeon explained everything.
Saw a different Surgeon when we brought our Dog home, explained in detail what how and when. Called to check up on him arranged a follow-up call

The Team at Cave are absolutely superb! We rushed in with our very poorly dog Atlas, and they all acted very quickly, professionally and focused!
The quality of care they give to your pet and yourself is of great excellence.
My partner and I can not thank your team enough for saving our fur baby!

Can't thank them enough for everything they have done especially Malcolm the surgeon who repaired Dexter's leg, had regular phone calls informing us of what's going on and how he was doing at every stage.
Absolutely amazing how they have looked after him so well, just hope we never have to go through any of this again x
