Will get these added to the locators this evening Thanks
Can I suggest Fiona Diamond at Coastal Vets, Snettisham for anyone in the Kings Lynn / West Norfolk area. All the vets at the practise are brilliant, but Fiona has special interests in Rabbits and Guinea Pigs and has been amazing with my boys - especially for their castrations.
The practise details are:
16 Alma Road, Snettisham, Kings Lynn, Norfolk, PE31 7NY
Phone: 01485 544201
Hi, does anyone know of a piggy savvy vet in the West Norfolk area. There's a vet at a practise in King's Lynn who keeps pigs herself so I suppose she's about the best bet that I know of but I don't know if she's actually piggy trained. The nearest one in the vet locator is Norwich but thats over an hour from me so not ideal in an emergency. Thanks.
I'm from Dersingham! I did no know this so thanks! I take my pigges to medi vet south wootton. I did go to coastal once and saw the male vet but he didn't seem to no much about piggies
I'm from Dersingham too! The vet I heard about in Lynn was Angharad at Millhouse Vets in Tennyson Road near the college but apparently shes no longer there. I used coastal vets in Snettisham with our first pig, Snowy. He was diagnosed with pneumonia and we were prescribed Baytril but weren't warned of the effect it would have on his gut or offered any probiotic. When I saw it was recommended on here to give probiotics alongside antibiotics I rang them and asked and they said it was completely unnecessary. Unfortunately I took their word for it as I wrongly thought they would know what they were talking about. Snowy was going downhill by the afternoon of the second day and I was trying to syringe him mushed up pellets with limited success and I rang to speak to the vet but he wasn't there, they said he would ring me back. No call came and I kept ringing them but still he wasn't there. I never did get a call back that day and we lost Snowy in the early hours of the morning. It was Chris we saw.I'm from Dersingham! I did no know this so thanks! I take my pigges to medi vet south wootton. I did go to coastal once and saw the male vet but he didn't seem to no much about piggies
Good vet in stockport ? Thanks x
Hi Guys
Can anyone recommend a good vets in the west midlands? All of my piggies are currently registered with Vets 4 pets in sutton coldfield, but i have my doubts about how much they know about guinea pigs and i'd rather have a decent vet set up before i really need them.
I really don't want a vet the treats guinea pigs as a disposable pet which i suspect vets 4 pets will.
Thanks
Wow thank you. I will give those a try.You are in luck

Any recommended vets in Manchester? I've used Ashleigh Vets in the past but they are very expensive and miss diagnosed my poor Barley last year, she passed away after many attempts of treatment
@squeakypigs Please add Jen Quayle onto the Rose Cottage post. Ken, why usually sees our cystic piggy, was off work a back injury, Jen successfully spayed her with great expertise and care, as the hormone injections were not successful. Thanks[you]Recommended Vets[/you]

If you know of a good vet, please send me a personal message or email me at [email protected] and I will add your vet onto this list.
Thanks to Lucinda for this idea!
Aw that's sad. Sorry you lost her. Our first vet misdiagnosed cystic ovaries 3 times and only when I pushed for a scan did we get the right diagnosis. Hence we moved, luckily we all have her.I have a good vet, thank goodness. But he didn't put a splint on my babies broken leg so he put her down Right after that, I found out that you could get splints for guinea pigs and I was so sad :-(
Hi, you are in the wrong thread. Go to home page... Forums... Health & illness.. And post an urgent thread there. I hope your piggy is ok? Was it coughing?Can someone please help me, My guinea pig is twitching and trying to throw up.
