Christchurch Veterinary Referrals

After a fluke accident on our way home our ever playful dog Charlie was left with a severed patella tendon and potentially the loss of his back right leg.
He was referred to the amazing team at Christchurch Veterinary Surgery, and his wonderful surgeon Marco carried out an incredible repair.
Charlie is now four months into recovery and is racing around as if he’s never injured his leg! We can’t thank them enough for what they did for both Charlie and to help us aid him the best recovery possible.

From my first phone call my experience has been faultless. Staff are really kind, reassuring and knowledgeable.
I only had to provide a few details and all admin was taken care of seamlessly and efficiently which is really appreciated as insurance claims can be a bit of a minefield. Always called me back when they said they would.
On the day of the surgery I was greeted by Shane who explained the procedure in detail and really puts you at ease that your pet is in safe hands.
You receive updates and pictures via an app you set before you leave.
I was sent an aftercare video as well as being talked through everything the day after surgery.
Couldn't have asked for any more from this vets and so glad I took the time to research reviews before choosing where to refer my pet. It was well worth the journey.
Have now had our 4 week post surgery check up and everything is as it should be.
Thank you to everyone at this clinic!

Very professional and knowledgeable staff. My dog got the best care and follow up care

We had such excellent treatment for our very much loved Labrador who is 12. Thank you so much Tom who removed her spleen and a huge benign growth. She is running around very happy again. Thanks to all the team who cared for her and the much appreciated photos

Our Boston Terrier Tyson had 3 difficult biopsies taken here at the same time by Marco who was very friendly and experienced. The staff were all friendly and the whole feel of the Practice was very caring.

Absolutely mind blown with how much our German Shepherd has loved the Vet Marco, to the point where he’s wagging his tail and shaking with excitement the closer he approaches the door. Even after the operation!

We honestly can’t recommend Marco and the entire Christchurch Vet team for the incredible service.

Strongly recommend and forever thankful for the service we’ve received!

Very happy with Donna who assisted me and through discussing all the steps and her own experience this made my mind up to use Christchurch

Brilliant vets! My 14 week old kitten was referred by my usual vet for orthopaedic surgery, surgery successful and Pipsqueak very well cared for. Kept up-to-date on how he was doing at all stages by their Pets app where they/ I could leave messages

The people at this place are amazing fur baby life savers truly blessed to have been there with our likkle Yorkshire Terrier Coco 💛❤🐾🐾🐾😢

My dog Sabira ruptured her Cruciate Ligament. My own vet who is extremely good referred us to CVR. I could not be more impressed with their service. From the moment you speak to them on the phone they are incredibly professional, but more important that actually care. Some vets are all about the money. Well CVR also need to be paid, but you’re not made to feel that it’s their first concern- Your pet is first. I’ve had dogs over 50 years and this practice is the best experience I have ever had at any vets and I’ve been to lots. The ladies on reception usually know their stuff. They are brilliant as are the nurses and everyone on PetsApp. Both vets I saw Shane and Tom are brilliant and take the time to not only reassure you, but make sure you understand everything. Thank everyone at CVR for your help and support from me and Sabira 🙏🏻

Amazing veterinary practice. They've been really supportive through the entire journey

Lucky to been advised to use the place for my puppy's fractured knee. Well cared for, was keep up to date with his progress. Recommended

Excellent surgery and care for our little cat who got hit by a car. They fixed her broken hip and 6 weeks later she is running around and back to herself. The team here is very professional - the same level of professionalism you would expect from a good human hospital. Highly recommend this place but hope you never need it.

So impressed with the staff and vets at Christchurch. Everyone is doing a fantastic job from recieving our dog all the way to aftercare. Very happy.

I took my bertie in for his operation yesterday. All I can say is what very lovely practice. The Vet who did it all Tom was so reassuring took time to explain everything to my. The receptionists are lovely. I cannot thank you enough. Thank you all again x

Fantastic vets! Repaired my cat's fractured pelvis and hip dislocation after he was hit by a car. Had regular daily updates and pictures through the app which was so nice. Can't praise them enough.

Our dog was referred to Christchurch for a TPLO operation to reconstruct the knee due to a ruptured cruciate ligament.

The whole experience was very impressive. From the outset we were put at ease by Shane who clearly was highly experienced, accomplished and qualified. Communication was good and the operation went according to plan.

Early days so far, but the operation is done and our little dog has started her journey towards normal mobility and a normal life.

Very pleased with the way vet Marco helped us with our beloved dog. He has been very professional and always happy to answer any queries and has massively helped us through the whole process! Highly recommend Marco and his team at Christchurch Vet Referal, best vet we’ve encountered!

Brilliant information about operation and surgery procedures and full explanation of X rays and treatment.
Great after care advice upon release of animal.
Gave me great confidence in what they had done and why.
Just great 5* service thanks.

Brilliant, they gave my cat a second chance of normality after being hit in road traffic accident. Extensive damage to back leg, but Shane and team did amazing job of rebuilding and aftercare and followup faultless. Our Vets in Colne Colchester recommended who are also amazing, very lucky to be referred to them. Thank you.
