Dog & Cat Vets in Lechlade

## Summary The Bridge Veterinary Clinic is a long-established practice (the website says it has been caring for pets since 1903) offering routine care such as vaccinations, neutering, dental work and microchipping. Reviewers describe being accommodated at short notice (“squeezing” an appointment in) and mention follow-up contact after procedures (calls to check in after tumour surgery). The clinic also appears set up for more involved cases as well as everyday appointments, with one owner specifically describing mast cell tumour removal and detailed explanations of outcomes. The website also states the team can visit farms for routine and emergency care. ## Services - **Vaccinations** (website; also mentioned in a review for a puppy’s second vaccination) - **Neutering** (website) - **Dental care** (website) - **Microchipping** (website) - **Surgery** (reviews mention a dog being left for surgery; and mast cell tumour removal on a beagle) - **Farm visits for routine and emergency care** (website statement) ## People - **Hannah (vet)** – described as “great” with dogs, with owners highlighting her handling of two different dogs (review). - **Amber (reception)** – mentioned for being helpful and “going out of her way to help” (review). - **Will Franklin** – thanked by name for removing a mast cell tumour, explaining the procedure and outcomes, and making follow-up calls to check on recovery (review). ## Reviews **4.8 stars from 109 reviews.** Themes below are drawn from the latest written reviews available to us. - **Ability to fit pets in quickly** when needed (e.g., “Thanks for squeezing her in”). - **Clear explanations and advice**, including taking time to answer questions (puppy vaccination visit; tumour surgery explanation). - **Support around surgery and aftercare**, including follow-up calls after a major procedure (mast cell tumour removal) and reassurance when a pet had to be left for surgery. - **Handling nervous pets** is repeatedly mentioned (a nervous puppy relaxing during the visit; a cat being less frightened than at a previous vet). - **Compassion in difficult situations**, including support when a dog died and help arranging cremation and return of ashes.
