ALAN HUMPHRIES, village vets, Broad Green, Liverpool. 0151 428 8600

Very cavy savvy.
 
Sandhole vets in Snodland comes highly recommended by me! I was sent there as a referral by my own vet. My poor girlie piggie has had two stones removed since October. This is their website - http://www.sandholevets.com/

Monica and Kate are the cavy savy crew. I have seen Monica twice who has flushed stones from my Ginnie's kidney and also urether. This Saturday I shall be seeing Kate for a post op check and to chat about Ginnie's cystic ovaries. Wish us luck xx
 
I don't know if this has been suggested but I have been going to the Drybridge Veterinary Clinic in Monmouth for many years, I know it's a bit of a drive from here in Abergavenny, but believe me it's worth it, they are absolutely wonderful!

(I had to stop going to my 2 local vets, one for neglect on a cat my sister had, and the other vets are more interested in money than the actual welfare of the animal, and I was recommended Drybridge. )

Their website: http://www.drybridgevets.co.uk/
Their Phone number: 01600 712206

If you are in this area, please go check them out, you won't regret it I promise!
 
Hi, I wonder if anyone can recommend a vets around or within reasonable driving distance of the Sandwell area of the west midlands? Previously used one which has treated Minnie (would estimate she is now about age 5) 3x this year with baytril for recurring wheezing problems. Am keeping heating up, have put extra hay in pig loos, she is eating and gently nipping ok as usual but her wheezing is so horrible to hear and her fur is on/off fluffed up. Would really like to try another vets as feel all the normal one will do is suggest a further course of the same antibiotic which doesn't seem to be doing anything and do not want her to be in pain or struggling to breathe.
Any suggestions? Thanks :-)
 
Forgot to say am going to try ringing manor vets today, as their site states they deal with exotic species and indicates guinea pigs are one of these. Maybe someone here has used them and can advise if they feel able to do a more thorough check up than my normal vets?

*cannot figure out how to use private messaging to ask people previously requesting for this area earlier in thread*
 
Ask to see Marie at Manor vets, as recommended by one of the rescues in the area.

Just letting folks know that Kate is now on maternity leave and Monica has left the practice :(
 
anyone know of an exotic specialist in Germany? A friend of mine is desperately looking. Thank you! Lara aka Wenton
 
i would like to reccommend Clarke and Marshall in berkhamstead hertfordshire, they are very good with smaller animals and charge fair prices depending on the size of the animal too. one of them there has kept piggies for a long time andis great for advice too.

I would however like to warn people away from a vet called barton lodge in Hemel Hempstead their prices are unreasonable and they have absolutley no idea how to handle smaller animals and are very dangerous i would never ever use them again after a bad experience with one of the head vets in which he threw mine 6 feet in the air and left him on the floor for me pick up as he was more concerned about himself!

Thank you for the recommendation and the warning.

Sport_Billy, one if the forums admin is in the process of making a new and updated vet list so I have PM'd him your recommendation and warning.
 
Alfreton Park Vets in Alfreton, Derbyshire. Ellie Whitehead specialises in guinea pigs and can't recommend her enough, I wouldn't go anywhere else for any of my pets now :)
 
Sorry if any have already been mentioned but can anyone recommend a cavy savvy vet in or near to Peterborough? Thanks :)

I imagine he has already been recommended dozens of time, but I recommend Simon Maddock at the Cat & Rabbit Care Clinic! He and his wife, Kim are both fantastic vets with excellent knowledge of guinea pigs.
 
Mrs Richardson at orchard vets romsey, Hampshire is fantastic!
