    Brunker Vet is outstanding. Our girl had Cruciate Ligament surgery and the vets along with the staff have been nothing short of amazing from the beginning. We still have a long recovery ahead however it gave me peace of mind knowing she was in such great hands❤️ Highly recommend. ❤️

    We recently had our King Charles Cav in for luxating patella surgery. Brunker Road Vets have been so helpful in the aftercare process, and I couldn't recommend them enough for any of your pet needs!🙏

    Brunker Road Vet is the best! I have been coming here for 3 months with my two kittens (Inky and Plop) and the team is just amazing. My cats and I receive the most thoughtful, compassionate and caring service every time. I am always treated with kindness and respect every time I visit, and I feel like a valued person! Special shout out to our vet, Dr Mcdougal, and Ash, for taking the time to answer as many questions as possible about my babies. I recommend everyone go here for their fur babies! You will be well taken care of 🥰🐈‍⬛🐈

  • I could not speak more highly of Brunker Road Vets. From the wonderful reception staff to the experienced vets and vet nurses, the care has been outstanding.
    My beautiful kelpie, Betty, has had a few health issues over the last couple of years and recently went through a pretty major surgery. Thank you so much to Sue for following her instincts and digging deeper when things just didn’t seem quite right. Because of that, they discovered a tumour on her spleen. Thank you to Lucy for successfully removing it and taking such incredible care of her. The level of compassion, professionalism and dedication shown to Betty has been exceptional. Nothing is ever too much trouble for this team, they take the time to explain everything clearly, and I’ve always felt completely informed about diagnoses, medications and care plans. We are incredibly lucky that her tumour is benign and that we get to spend more time with our beautiful girl. All of the staff at Brunker Road Vets have been extraordinary, and I’m so grateful to have such an amazing team caring for Betty.
