Thanks very much to Bob and the team for hosting a great evening for BSAVA . , wonderful talk and fabulous practice .

We had Bob visit us for 2 days this week to give us information and a speach on better dental techniques for extractions and treatments. Super friendly and very informative with lots of advise and demonstrations! Presentation was really interesting and simple to follow and understand. He then came to the practice to show us and help us use our new dental xray machine for future use in all of our dental! Really enjoyed the day and would highly recommend for other practices for CPD days and dental refresher.

Comments :I reccently attended the first module of the PG Cert Dental and oral surgery Certificate. Bob was an inspiring speaker making the complex embryology of jaw and tooth development fun. Clinical tips abounded with a few controversies intriduced with good humour I greatly look forward to Bob being part of other course modules

Dear Chris
Thank you for your kind review. I cannot tell you the dread that filled me when I realised that I had been given the poisoned chalice of “Embryology” to deliver the lectures on. My memories of the (few) lectures that I received, were of boredom & total confusion.
I am really pleased that I left you (as a recipient of my lectures) with a better experience.
Personally I much prefer delivering lectures on a practical bent and spending time in the wet-labs with delegates. But you will need to lobby the powers-that-be for me to achieve that.
Really pleased that I managed to make some sense of embryology for you. To have made it “fun” is truly a great accolade!
Very best wishes

Just returned from CPD where Bob Partridge was lecturing – very, very practical approach to subject with lots of useful tips. Also very approachable during practical sessions, always happy to demonstrate, watch us work and advise how to do it better.
Many thanks Bob!

Thank you Jacob for your kind words
It was a great course & a pleasure meeting all of the delegates.
I am glad that you gained a great deal from it

As a referring vet I have always received excellent service from VetDentist. The most recent patient I referred for crown reduction came back a week later “a different dog”. The owner reports he has played with toys “for the first time in his life”. The referral information received back was very comprehensive, and a plan for follow up was well detailed. Highly recommend.

Thank you very much for your kind words

Our aim is to provide excellence in care, for our patients, our clients and for the vets that refer cases to us in a sustainable practice.

It is really nice to know that as a referring vet, you have appreciated our service.

Very best wishes

Thoroughly enjoyed Bob’s bespoke dental training for our practice. Very informative and useful, engaged well with all the staff. A great way to improve the knowledge level and enthusiasm for dentistry within the practice, we are now hoping we are putting those wise words into action! Thanks again Bob! Much appreciated.

Hi Alan
It was great to meet you and your team. It was very satisfying helping to stimulate their enthusiasm for dentistry and to appreciate the importance of radiography. Hopefully having sewn the seeds and fertilised the desires to provide excellence in patient oral care, your patients and practice will benefit for the future.

Bob

After attending recent lectures and practical course run by Bob Partridge I feel much more confident in my approach to dental cases. Every vet would benefit from such teaching even if been qualified for many years.

Bob came to our practice today to deliver a day of veterinary dentistry cpd – the day was excellent and very informative – I would highly recommend

Dear David,
Thank you for your kind words, I’m glad the day was a success.
It was a pleasure meeting some of the Chine House Vet team yesterday. I look forward to working with you all to further improve the dental health of your patients.

Bob Partridges dental surgery was exceptional on my 12yr old springer. She had root canal treatment and extensive dental work. Recovery was first class and has healed very well.

I recently referred a canine patient here for chronic gingivitis, I received a very thorough report including photos and radiographs which have helped me learn. I would highly recommend this service.

I have been using Bob Partridge’s referral services for few years now since I have met Bob at a CPD. Both my colleagues and me are always very impressed by the in depth knowledge of the subject, enthusiasm, great treatment results and client satisfaction.
The case reports we receive are amazing with lots of pictures and clear explanatory notes. They are always prompt, which is not often a case with several referral services known to me.
Every referral does not only benefits our patients but also improves the referring vet knowledge of the subject and as a result our own clinical practice.
We have invited Bob before to give us an in-practice lecture on dentistry related subjects which was enjoyed by all attendees and was a great success.
I would recommend everyone to use Bob’s expertise in all areas of oral health.

Dear Filip
Thank you for your kind words – I hope that we can continue to work together, caring for your patients for many years.

Thanks very much for your fantastic lecturing to BSAVA ,the lectures were entertaining and informative and the practical session under your guidance was much appreciated .

I thoroughly enjoyed my 2 day CPD course with Bob Partridge last December. There was a perfect balance of theory teaching followed by practical sessions. Bob spoke with a wealth of knowledge and passion. It has definitely fuelled my ambition to focus on dentistry. The facilities at Improve International were great too.

I attended a small animal dentistry course in Dublin with Boehringer with Bob as lecturer and I have to say it was one of the best lectures I’ve ever been to. He was a fantastic teacher … very engaging with outstanding knowledge. I would highly recommend his services. he has helped me progress and become much more passionate about dentistry

Dear Kayleigh
Thank you for your very kind words. I am delighted that I have helped kindle a passion for dentistry – as we all know, it is *THE MOST IMPORTANT* area of veterinary practice!
Very best wishes, Bob

I recently attended a CPD day on dental extraction by Bob Partridge and it was extremely well run and informative. The practical session was especially useful. Please can you do a course on dental radiography next?

Having attended lectures and a workshop with Bob Partridge at Vets North recently I cannot praise highly enough the standard of the presentations and practical sessions. I now feel I am far better equipped to deal with any difficult extractions I may be faced with. The amount of help and information given was fantastic and the extraction workshop was the best CPD I have done.
I would not hesitate to refer a patient to Mr Partridge and look forward to attending further CPD given by him.

Dear Bob
Many thanks for an extremely informative and interesting dental course last week in Sheffield.
Was great to meet you, and I trust we will be able to put all your wisdom into practice.
Hope we can follow it up again soon.

Just attended a dentistry course for veterinary continued education which was run by Bob. Such an amazing course and such a knowledgeable teacher! I wish I had done a course like this years ago!!

Dear Alicia
Thank you for your kind comments. My aim with any of the courses, or lectures, is to try and help & encourage other vets to aim towards excellence in veterinary dentistry. This is the surest way of benefitting the pet population for generations to come.
It was a pleasure meeting you and I am glad that you enjoyed and benefitted from the course
Bob

I cannot recommend Bob Partridge’s canine dentistry course enough. His advice and teaching was a game changer for me. For the first time in my career, I can say that I’m actually looking forward to getting stuck into the dentals I have next week!

I learnt loads and really enjoyed Bob’s teaching style. Perfect balance of lectures and practical workshops.

Thank you so much!

Will definitely be looking at the other course he offers in future.

Dear Catherine

Thank you so much for your lovely words. It was a pleasure meeting you and I am delighted that you enjoyed the course and that you found it helpful.

Most importantly, I am glad that your patients will benefit from your new found confidence and enthusiasm for dentistry.

Very best wishes & thanks again

We would just like to say a big thank you to Bob for an extremely enjoyable 2 days of in practice CPD. Bob catered the CPD to our needs. The focus of our CPD was dental radiography and Bob provided a thorough series of lectures on common conditions, radiographic technique and interpretation in addition to providing hands on tips and tricks. Lectures were combined with practical sessions using our own equipment making the CPD directly relevant to our own practice. All of this was delivered with a great sense of humour by someone who is clearly passionate about their subject

Dear Dave
It was great meeting your team – who are obviously professional and dedicated to providing the best possible care for their patients.
I hope that my training will help develop and improve their skills.
I really enjoyed my time with you guys, hopefully we can continue on the training journey together over the next months.
Very best wishes

Great course last week. Lots of great tips. Bob was very approachable. Improve’s Sheffield Venue is fab.

Bob presented to first opinion veterinary surgeons as part of our new online CPD format. As well as providing detailed webinar based guides to extraction, Bob participated in a live Q&A session where he helped address issues from over 100 delegates. Bob is very patient and generous with his time, and is able to clearly explain concepts in a way that allows you to understand how a technique works as well as its importance. We had great participation in the event as a result of this. Thank you very much Bob!

Dear Jenny
Thank you for your kind comments. I hope the BSAVA delegates enjoyed the sessions and took something useful away with them. Veterinary Dentistry is a vast topic and I hope that I can explore more areas of it with your membership in the future.

I recently attended a CPD course on feline dentistry with Bob; I learnt a huge amount during the practical sessions, and now feel much more confident in my extraction technique. So much so that our practice has invested in new equipment to assist with improving extraction technique. I would highly recommend any CPD with Bob, he is really up to date with the latest developments and treatments; and his enthusiasm for dentistry really rubs off on you!

Dear Jenny
I am glad that you enjoyed the course and that it has helped with dentistry in your practice. Your patients and clients will benefit from your increased enthusiasm for dentistry & that makes all of the teaching worthwhile.

We had Bob in recently for a day long CPD session. The sessions were fun and informative, with plenty of chance to ask questions and practice radiology skills. Bob is very professional and knowledgeable. Would highly recommend.

I am just after completing a 2 day long CPD course given by Bob near Dublin Airport in canine dentistry. The course was great and I learned so much. It has given me even more interest in dentistry. Bob’s lecture’s were full of info and also entertaining. The practical sessions were great and I found it very easy to ask Bob any question at all. Thanks so much!

Hi Riona
I am glad that you enjoyed the course & a big “Thank You” to Forte for supporting the training.
It is always a pleasure helping other vets develop a love of dentistry and acquiring the skill sets to improve the quality of care for their patients.

We have the honour to have Dr Partridge as part of our VetCT Telemedicine Hospital. Our virtual hospital enables regular vets to discuss cases with board-certified specialists in all specialist areas, ranging from internal medicine to indeed dentistry. Dr Partridge’s advice is top notch and very appreciated by our vet members. We hope to work with Dr Partridge for many more years.

Thank you for your kind words

Excellent service! The staff stayed very late to operate on our spaniel Molly. We found them to be caring and professional.
The level of equipment and their explanations outstanding.
Had total confidence in the treatment they gave to molly which was all done with Mollys comfort in mind. Thank you.

We can’t thank you enough for the care and attention that you gave to us and Hector last week – it was second to none . Nothing was too much trouble and made a difficult situation easier to manage.
Thank you x

A big thank you to Bob Partridge and his team of nurses who stayed so late to give such good care and attention to our dog Alby during a very long complex procedure. Everything was explained and big screen photos showed us exactly what had been done. We are grateful to have such a wonderful state of the art surgery so close to home and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Bob and his team.

I am writing to express my satisfaction and appreciation for the exceptional care provided by Bob Partridge of VETDENTIST. Bobs expertise, compassion and communication skills truly stood out, making the entire experience remarkably positive for both my pet and me.
My dog experienced a traumatic accident that resulted in the snapping of his large incisor. Understandably, this situation was distressing, but from the very first consultation, Bobs reassuring demeanor and professionalism put us at ease. He took the time to thoroughly explain the treatment process, outlining every step and potential outcome.
Throughout the course of treatment, Bob ensured that I was kept fully informed at all times. Regular updates on my pets progress, along with detailed explanations of any adjustments to the treatment plan, were consistently provided. This instilled a sense of trust and confidence in his abilities, alleviating any concerns I may have had.
The follow -up care provided by Bob and his team was nothing short of excellent. The post-treatment guidance demonstrated a commitment to the long-term health and comford of my dog.
I would wholeheatedly recommend Bob Partridge to anyone seeking exceptional veterinary dental care for their beloved pet.

Thank you to Bob and his entire team for working so hard to help Finn our lab puppy. Finn had a lower canine growing into his soft palate and the other lower canine was severely impacted and forming a cyst within the mandible. After prolonged and complicated surgery Finn is recovering well. The entire team were very caring and stayed late to make sure Finn had safely recovered from the operation before we traveled home. Thank you to you all for your hard work and fed.

Dill returned to the Practice to check on his progress following surgery and extensive root canal treatment. Previous experience here revealed an exceptional level of care and expertise. This follow up (consisting in part of exquisite photographs. radiographs and cone-beam CT) confirmed how successful the treatment had been. There is no doubt about the quality of treatment provided by Bob Partridge and his team. As a fellow professional in the human field, it is wonderful to see that this level of care can be delivered to the animal population as well. The whole team must be highly commended. Many thanks.

We took our 12 week old scottie puppy Hazel for a consultation due to an issue with her lower canines. She had them removed the same day. Bob explained everything very clearly about what was going to happen and the plan going forward over the coming months. He showed us detailed before and after photos of her mouth and X-rays they had taken and explained them to us. Hazel seems non the worse for her experience and is almost back to her normal cheeky self. We’d like to thank Bob and all his team who work so hard behind the scenes.

On behalf of the Wood family we would like to say a massive thank you to Bob and his dedicated, caring nurses for the brilliant care and treatment of our precious dog Bailey, a 13 year old Cocker Spaniel.
Being an older dog we were so worried about proceeding with the complex dental procedure, however following a consultation with Bob we felt reassured and this put our minds at rest that we had made the right decision to go ahead with the dental surgery. It was apparent Bob was an extremely knowledgeable and highly experienced dental vet and explained the whole procedure from start to finish. Throughout the day our telephone calls were promptly answered and we were kept updated and Bob and his staff worked late until Bailey had recovered to be discharged home. Just want to say a massive thank you to the nurses for giving him lots of cuddles and care throughout the day. Despite the complex surgery and Baileys age he returned home that night with positive signs of a good recovery and by the next day we were pleased to see he was behaving like a happy and healthy dog so soon.

We are so very grateful to Bob and his wonderful team and would not hesitate in recommending this dental vets. Bailey sends lots of doggy love to you all for the care he received.

Went to see Bob in October 2019 with my weimaraner puppy Duke. Dukes lower canines were growing into his upper palate causing pain and inflammation. Bob reduced the height of these teeth alleviating this problem. Now after 3 years of careful monitoring and regular check ups Duke has been given the all clear and signed off. Thankyou Bob and your team helping Duke live a pain free happy life. 5 star service from a 5 star gentleman . Nothing to much trouble. Duke and John Lamb

Dear Mr Lamb

Thank you very much for your kind words.

We are so pleased Duke had got the all clear and he has done so well.

Excellent service for our 3 yr old lab who had fractured 2 teeth on a bone. Bob explained everything thoroughly and provided a detailed report and photos which was extremely informative. Would definately recommend

Dear Mrs Harman

Thank you very much for your kind words.

We are so pleased Rolo is recovering so well following his procedure.

Kind regards

Charlie our boxer was referred last week and we were offered an appointment within 24 hours. On arrival yesterday. Charlie and I were greeted and time was taken to explain to me what the plan was. I was kept informed of progress during the day. When I picked Charlie up, Bob took time to explain to me what treatment Charlie had had and why. He also explained that Charlie will need to return for some more treatment. I am sure that on his return, Charlie will receive the same level of care and treatment he did yesterday. An amazing team caring for both pet and owner. Thank you all.

Dear Diane

Thank you for your review.

Charlie is a lovely boy and a lovely patient.

Thank you for your recognition of the team, it is greatly appreciated.

We look forward to seeing you both again in January

Absolutely first class service from Bob and his nurses. Also a big thank you to the nurses for staying late and looking after Alvin, after a long anesthetic.

I would highly recommend Bob and his team. My young dog had complicated dental issues which required specialist work. Bob and his staff couldn’t have been more helpful, informative or professional which put my mind at ease straight away. Bob has made such a difference to my dog and his work was described as ‘beautiful’ by my vet in a pre op check up. I received a fully itemised bill and comprehensive report, including x-rays and photos, within days of the op. Jenny was very efficient and assisted me in completing my insurance claim which was much appreciated. Well done to The Vet Dentist and thank you once again, Janet Holmes and Queenie.

Mabel our mini schnauzer was referred for a fracture to her back tooth caused by a hard bone. Unfortunately the situation was a little more complex with other work required and the tooth couldn’t be saved. It was a very long journey and a long day but the administrator Jenny, Bob and his fabulous nursing team stayed late to get everything done in one day. I can’t thank them enough for their reassurance and attention to detail and the care they showed for our girl! They even rang a couple of days later to check all was ok. We look forward to seeing you again for her check up.

Dear Wendy
Apologies for the delay in responding.
I’m glad that Mabel is feeling better. Certainly your experience reinforces the advice to use the “Rule of Thumb” – never give a chew that is too hard for you to indent with a thumbnail!
Thank you for your kind words regarding the whole team – it is much appreciated.
Please give Mable a pat from all of us!

Wow, well, what can I say that hasn’t already been said before!! FANTASTIC!!!

What a difference I have noticed in Black-Jack aka Jax, my seal bi colour ragdoll who was referred to Bob at the Vet Dentist for surgery after being found to have malformed growing teeth (four teeth on one side of his mouth rather than the usual three). Sorry – not sure of the technical term, but it didn’t look very nice on the x-rays.

Everyone was so very polite, kind and courteous from the first contact via phone through to enquiries following the surgery for insurance claims.

Bob explained everything very thoroughly and answered all the questions I had all the time showing care and consideration for his fluffy patient. I was even more surprised to receive a follow up call from him on the Sunday afternoon over the recent Bank Holiday asking how Jax was doing – “He’s got a new lease of life – he’s back to being a kitten again, he must have been in so much pain”. And, although he’s still not eating biscuits, his appetite is very much improved – again a sure sign that his operation was a great success.

Should your pets ever be unfortunate enough to need a referral to the Vet Dentist, you can rest assured your four legged friends will be in the best of hands and greatest of care with all the staff there.

A big thank you to you all from me – a very happy mummy and a big purry thank you from Black-Jack (Jax) for taking his pain and discomfort away.

Best Wishes
Anita Dinsdale.

Dear Anita
Thank you once more for your fulsome praise.
I am so pleased that Jax is feeling better following the surgery.
Our pets are very poor at letting us know that their dental issues are causing problems.
Often we only realise how much pain dental disease has been causing when we see the difference after treatment. The improvements that you have seen in Jax’s general demeanor are directly related to treatment of a problem that we could not know was causing him so much discomfort.
This is the major drive for us to continue treating our patients and we are really grateful that owners like you, come forwards to seek help for their pets.

Very best wishes

Bob

Excellent service, care and after care. Nothing is too much trouble. Even had a follow up call on a Sunday afternoon on Bank Holiday weekend asking about Jax’s welfare. They truly do treat the pets as their own. Amazing people – Thank you Bob Partridge and all his Team.

Thank you for your kind comments.
You are absolutely right in noting that we are a team effort.
Very best wishes to you & Jax

Bob

AVOID AVOID AVOID Mr Partridge may be one of the top six dental specialists in the country but he was rushed, brusque and very rude at the Leeds branch. I would strongly recommend that you make enquiries elsewhere for your pets treatment as Mr Partridge’s fees are extremely extortionate.
If I could give a zero for poor service I would.

It is always upsetting to receive a negative review. However, we have to draw consolation from the fact that the overwhelming majority of our feedback is highly positive.
Whilst we cannot comment specifically on individual cases, we can note that our colleagues report that a frequent stimulus for negative reviews is when they ask clients to pay outstanding bills.
Indeed, when we have records of post operative phone conversations saying how well their pet is doing after surgery – and knowing that our treatment has not only removed the immediate pain, but also our advice and preventive measures have helped to avoid further problems – then we know that we have done our job for our patients well.
It also helps to put things in context when a client’s main complaint appears to be a wobbly toilet seat in our previous temporary accommodation. Knowing that we were moving into our fabulous new premises in Harrogate within a couple of weeks, we had unfortunately not fixed the staff toilet seat.
Regarding the specific claims of “rushed, brusque and rude” – my practice manager has investigated and we have apologised if this was the impression given. However, this does not appear to be the impression that every other reviewer has formed.
This does not imply any complacency on our part. We continually strive to provide excellence in care, for our patients, our clients and for the vets that refer cases to us in a sustainable practice.
A sustainable practices is one that pays its bills and relies on our clients to pay their bills too!

So happy with the care our working cocker Ollie received when he broke his left lower canine tooth. Bob and his crew managed to save his tooth by doing a root canal and later Ollie had a crown fitted (the colour match is amazing).
Thank you so much Bob, your care is much appreciated.
Regards Kath

Hi
I am really pleased that we managed to save Ollie’s tooth with a root canal treatment.
The crown will provide extra protection for the root canal treatment and also some extra strength going forwards.
The laboratory we work with are also very keen to achieve an excellent appearance and put a lot of extra effort into that.
Thank you very much for your kind appreciation of our efforts.
Please give Ollie a pat from all of us!

Our Border Collie had some teeth extracted on 2/1/20 as he was having difficulty eating and was drooling a lot. He was looked after very well throughout the procedure and is doing very well now the teeth are out. We are so pleased he is not in pain anymore and would definitely recommend the VetDentist to anyone who has a dog with similar problems.
Thank you very much from us and from Scooby x

As a Veterinary Dentist, I prefer to try and save teeth where possible. Unfortunately in Scooby’s case we had no real option but to extract the damaged teeth. I am really pleased that removing them has removed the pain and discomfort he was suffering. Very best wishes to you & thank you for your kind words. Please give Scooby a pat & hug from all of us

My cat Edwin was hit by a car and badly fracture his jaw. After being referred by my vet we took him to Bob and he’s now on the mend. Bob was nothing less than amazing as after just 2 weeks my boy is on the mend and looking soo much better. All I can say is the treatment both Ed and I received was exemplary I was constantly in contact with him and updated daily on his progress. I cannot recommend bob highly enough his expertise and work is brilliant.

Bob explained everything to me regarding my pets damaged teeth. His knowledge was very evident and the work done was excellent. My dog was in safe and experienced hands and I would have no hesitation in recommending Vetdentist to my friends.
Once again thank you very much.

Hi David
Thank you for your kind review – the Team really appreciate it.
It was a pleasure seeing you & Flynn again.
Hopefully his new Zirconium white crown will give many years of trouble free service. He will just need to avoid dazzling people with his brilliant white smile!

Just to say a big thank you to Bob and all the staff who made us so very welcome and looked after our cat Charlie who had to have most of his teeth pulled, he was given superb care and made an excellent recovery, would recommend them to anyone, thank you all again, Graham and Tina and Charlie xx

Could not have wished for any better service. Everyone was outstanding. We will recommend you to everyone we know. Total dedication to animal welfare. Thank you all.

After managing Stomatitis for over 2 years, it was decided to refer my 12 year old chocolate Burmese, Teddy, to Mr Partridge. All his teeth have been removed and 6 months later he is such a different boy, gained over a kilo in weight, a much happier chap who can now eat anything, as long as it is to his liking of course! Boo my 10 year old Burmese was recently referred with the same problem. She has also had to lose most of her teeth and we have had a few set backs but she is now well on the road to recovery. I cannot fault the care, dedication and professionalism (whatever the time, day or night!) of the whole team at OakBeck. Thank you!

I cannot thank Bob and his team enough. My Bella was very poorly and uncomfortable for a while we think, and now she is back to good health all thanks to their expertise and professionalism. I would definitely recommend Bob and his team.

Hi
Really pleased that Bella has responded so well & that you can see the benefits of her treatment
Please give her a pat from all of us

Our dog Leo required some teeth out and was booked into a local vet to remove them. After giving it some thought, I requested that his vet refer him to Bob at the Vetdentist. He had the treatment done on the 13th Aug 2019. Both my wife and I cannot praise both Bob and the staff at the practice enough for the professional and reassuring care Leo received.
We can highly recommend Bob and his team to any owner whose pet has mouth problems and want the best possible treatment.

Dear Mr & Mrs White
It was a pleasure meeting both Leo and yourselves. It is always a pleasure dealing with caring and concerned owners whose priorities are the best possible care for their pets.
Thank you so much for your kind words and high praise. The whole team really appreciate it.
I am pleased that we have helped Leo and I know that with your hard work and the home care regime we have put in place that things should continue to improve for the future.

WOW, we had our first visit to see Mr Partridge yesterday (9/5/18) and we could not have been treated any better.
Every single one of the staff was friendly and welcoming in to the centre. We had a tour around the facilities which I found quite reassuring.
As for Mr Partridge himself, well, what can I say? So professional and explained absolutely everything, the news wasn’t what we wanted to hear but it was delivered in a way that was understandable and he used the images that he had taken to explain exactly what has been going on with our dog.
Our special boy has a fight on his hands over the coming months but I am absolutely certain that he is in no better hands than those of Mr Partridge

Hi
It was a pleasure meeting you all. As you say, we are at the start of this particular journey – let’s keep our fingers crossed for a good outcome.
Thank you so much for your kind words, the whole team will appreciate them,

Thank you to George and Bob for working hard on a Sunday to help with our 11yr old Lab Harry’s teeth. We knew after initial discussion exactly what the treatment steps were likely to be, in the event, imaging showed more problems with his teeth than we or our own vet had thought, and the work required will take 2 sessions as the first session ended before Bob tired too much – he was concerned about making an error. That was very good to hear, showing a cautious approach and consideration for their patient. We are happy to return.

Harry recovered quickly, the major sign of improvement is how fast he now eats – we hadn’t really noticed a slowing (he is a lab after all) but 3 days after his extractions, he beats our 2 year old lab to the finish at mealtimes!!!

Dear Dr Gibb
Thank you for your kind words, I am really pleased that Harry is doing well

Our dog had a fall from around four metres and broke off parts of his bottom canines. Within a day we were referred to vet dentist, with a very quick appointment. Very grateful for clear and appropriate communication and an absolute great service during a very stressful time!!! Very clear and transparent bill. Absolutely satisfied! My partner and I would highly recommend Bob and his team!

Hi
I am pleased that we were able to help Rory (& hopefully save those damaged teeth). This is the first part of the journey for him. He is a delightful character and it was a pleasure seeing him.
Thank you for your kind words

A massive thank you to Bob for performing Fender’s initial surgery today. We have renewed hope for him. Big thanks also to Louise for providing exceptional care for him, especially when he was recovering from his anaesthetic.

Many thanks for your kind words
It is great having such a super nurse to assist with procedures – your appreciation is much appreciated!

I took m elderly cat, Copper, to Oak Beck for a second opinion with a large infected ulcer in his mouth. As soon as the phone was answered (by Jane) I was able to hand over most of my concerns to a very capable team. Copper was seen the same day and referred to Bob Partridge the mouth an dental specialist whose expertise in this field I had had previously experienced. Mr Partridge explained how he proposed to approach the problem clearly and concisely. X ray and the CT scan which followed showed retained root fragments from previous dental extractions. The surgery to remove them was lengthy and painstakingly carried out and required the removal of quite a large area of infected tissue. I was updated on Copper’s progress regularly by Mr Partridge and the nursing team and any concerns I had about Copper coping with the surgery where put to rest by the exemplary post op care he received. I couldn’t believe how quickly he was back to normal. Oak Beck is a complete package from the initial phone call right through to discharge and every member of the team plays their part. Everything I hoped for and more beside but I guess it was just another day at the office for the Oak Beck team!

Thank you very much for your kind review. There is really no such thing as “another day at the office” – every day brings new and different challenges. Our aim is to try and tackle every problem and to get the best possible results we can – for the pets and for the owners. We firmly believe that trying to keep owners informed – both of our plans and of patient’s progress is an integral part of the care we wish to provide. I’m really pleased that we have achieved our aim in this case.
We are all really pleased with Copper’s progress and we know that it is only with such a caring and concerned owner that he has done so well.
Thank you once again from all of the team!

Our 7 year old Cockerpoo developed a large hard lump in his jaw. We took him to our local vet Filip at Marske vets, he took xrays ,samples for biopsey removed a tooth and contacted Bob Partridge.At the time Bob Partridge was out of the country but conversed with Filip and agreed to see Little Max on his return to uk.
When we attended the vet hospital Bob saw us examined Little Max, did CT scan and operated that same day.His manner was very professional,caring and truthful. (He called a spade a spade) you were not left wondering what was about to happen .
We were shown around the hospital and introduced to the staff.Our impression of both was very good. Our ratings for all category ‘s are the highest, any one with a pet who requires dental care
Contact Bob Partridge and his team. Little Max could not have had better treatment anywhere.
On his return home we received several tel. Calls checking on his progress .
We cannot thank Bob and his team enough.

Thank you for your kind words. It was a pleasure seeing you & Little Max is a joy. Obviously we are still on his treatment journey – but we are all keeping our fingers crossed for him.

I would, and do, recommend this practice to anyone who has concerns about their dog’s teeth. My experience is that general veterinary practitioners do not have the specialist knowledge to advise on complex dental issues and seem to take the view that if the dog is not showing pain then it is OK.

My English Bull Terrier pup had a condition where one of her lower canines was pressing into her upper palate. My vet suggested that this would ‘work itself out’ as her jaw grew. Thank goodness I asked for a referral to Bob Partridge to get a second opinion as a full examination showed that her canine had pierced her upper palate and would have been causing her a lot of pain every time she closed her mouth.

After her teeth were sorted out she was a different girl: letting anyone stroke her head and under her chin – she would dodge her head previously and now I understood why – and happy to play pull with her rope toys.

Dear Mrs Kendall
Thank you for your kind review. I am delighted that Marnie is now so much more comfortable and I look forward to seeing her again for the follow up radiographs.
Really pleased that she is now pain free and enjoying herself – that is what makes our job worthwhile!

I am a veterinary surgeon but when my Chihuahua needed dental treatment I wanted to refer her to a Specialist for expert care. I had every confidence that Bob would do a thorough job and had my dog’s best interests at heart. The excellent facilities and equipment, often not available within a GP practice, allowed detection and treatment of problems that may have been missed otherwise. I was kept fully updated throughout the day on Bob’s findings and Lucy’s progress. She bounced back from her general anaesthetic and treatment and even the next day was much happier and eating much better than she had done in a while. Bob also gave us lots of advice for home care following her procedure.

Dear Kathryn,
I am delighted that Lucy has bounced back so quickly. All to often the effects of dental disease are insidious and gradually creep up. The extent of the problem is only seen when the disease is treated and we notice the difference.
It was a pleasure meeting both you and Lucy – please give her a pat from all of us.

Following an attack from another dog, Bob and the team did an amazing job repairing Zac’s , our 6 year old bichon frise’s, jaw and I can’t thank everyone enough for the superb way he was looked after, treated and as my sister said, being made “unbroken” !

We are all really pleased with Zac’s progress and look forward to removing the implants. Thank you for your kind words – whilst all of the team wish that Zac’s injuries hadn’t occurred it was a pleasure looking after the brave little lad.

Tinker, my border collie, managed to break a molar and Bob, Louise and the team worked long hours to root canal the tooth for her. They were very professional from beginning to end. Special thanks to Louise for care and expertise in looking after Tinker. Also thank you to Bob for you clear communication and supportive guidance.

Dear Ms Fear
I’m really pleased that things went well for Tinker. Thank you very much for the kind words of praise, they are much appreciated.
We look forward to seeing Tinker for the follow up

Travelled from Blackpool to get treatment for Willow. Excellent care for her who has an undershot jaw. Resulting in her lower canines impacting on the roof of her mouth. Bob and the team removed the top half of the teeth, filled them and repaired the roof of her mouth. Highly recommend Bob and his team. Massive thank you from all of us.

Dear Mrs Miller-Fieldhouse,
Thank you for your kind words. It was a pleasure meeting Willow and removing the cause of the oral pain. Hopefully she will go on with a trouble free life now.
I look forward to seeing you all in six months

My best friend Artemis had a bad start after an accident that led to a broken jaw but thanks to the wonderful service provided by Bob Partridge she is now fully recovered and is a happy little lady full of life and now looking forward to her first Christmas. After she was injured I was very upset and Bob Partridge was able to make everything seem ok and has done his utmost to save all but one adult tooth and it could have been worse. We will miss his friendly manner but were not sorry to say a final goodbye after all the treatment as she is all better.

Dear Miss Darnbrough
Thank you for your kind words, I am delighted that Artemis has done so well and that we have achieved a remarkably good result for her.
She is a super character and we will be sorry not to see her again – whilst being pleased with the result that has achieved this parting of the ways!
We wish you all the very best for the future

Thank you so much Bob for repairing our boy Walters fractured tooth yesterday .

Being able to complete the root canal proceedure was an added bonus after a very long day . The skill you showed , care and time you took was so appreciated .

Can we say also a really big thank you to Louise your vet nurse too ….she was so helpful , efficient and kind pre – op., day of op and afterwards . You helped us no end Louise.

See you in June 2019 for Walters check -up ……..

Hi
I am glad that Walter is doing well.
Many thanks for your kind words – I am sure Louise will appreciate them as well
Best wishes – I look forward to seeing Walter next year

My German Shepherd Luna had broken canines and I was concerned that she should receive treatment before they started giving her trouble but I wanted her to be treated by a specialist. It turned out that Luna’s canines weren’t a major concern but she did have two abscesses at the back of her mouth that we had no idea about. She had shown no signs of being in pain so I was pretty upset to learn that she actually had been in pain for I don’t know how long. The care that Luna received was I believe second to none. Luna had four teeth extracted in the end and a good clean and polish. She is clearly a happier dog for the work that was done and I can’t thank Bob and his team enough.

Being so upset that Luna had been in pain and we had no idea I did a quick rummage through my other dog, Kody’s, mouth and found a broken tooth in there – it doesn’t appear to be bothering her at all but as we now know that means nothing. Kody is now booked in to see Bob next week. Kody is older than Luna and the anaesthetic worries me but the care taken with Luna during the anaesthetic was clearly far superior to any we’ve seen before (as evidenced by the detailed breakdown on the bill and her recovery). I’m confident that Kody won’t receive better care anywhere.

Bob explained everything to me regarding Luna’s teeth. His knowledge was very evident and the photographs he took throughout the treatment were excellent as I could see what he was explaining. Luna was in safe and experienced hands and I would have no hesitation in recommending Vetdentist. In fact I would want that any dental work for my dogs be undertaken by Bob and his team rather than at my regular vets – they deserve the very best treatment.

Very pleased that Luna has done so well and we look forwards to seeing Kody

Thank you for your kind words

We have just collected our dog Rudy following a long root canal procedure on his broken tooth.

Bob and his staff were fantastic. The care they showed to our pet was out of this world and the explanation by Bob of the work that had been done was full and easy to understand leaving us with peace of mind.

All in all a wonderful experience and we have no hesitation in recommending the practice to others.

Many thanks for your kind review. I am delighted that we managed to complete the procedure in one day, rather than needing a second stage. The team were all really tired, but very pleased with the result for Rudy.
We look forward to keeping in touch & thank you again for the kind words, the team all appreciate it.

Bob

My working dog Jack broke his tooth in Feb this year. From start to finish the service Bob and his team gave us was second to none and I always felt my boy was in safe hands.
The end result is fantastic and it has given me the confidence to carry on doing the job we both love.
I would certainly recommend Bob and his team.
Many Thanks Bob
Rob and Jack

Dear Rob
It was a pleasure helping Jack to enable him to carry on with his vital role.
Hopefully his new crown will enable him to carry on work just as effectively as before he damaged the tooth.
Thank you once again for your appreciation – the whole team are very grateful

Spencer my King Charles Spaniel visited the surgery in Leeds after weeks of breathing problems and mucousy discharge from his nose. As he is twelve years old I was very apprehensive but needn’t to have worried. The whole set up is so professional and he was left for surgery and xrays. We collected him later that day and I was shown the amount of work that was done on him, the main part being the removal of eight teeth including his upper two canines. Spencer was so well looked after by Bob and his assistant Louise, and all eventualities were covered for our return back home to North Yorkshire.
Two weeks later and finishing all his tablets my boy is better than I dared hope for. His nasal discharge has cleared completely, no more snuffles. After previously losing a kilo in weight and having to be given a low dose steroid to help his appetite he now is eating like a horse !! It is wonderful to see and I can only imagine how problematic his teeth were. He is so much happier and I can’t thank Bob and his team enough, nor can Spencer.

Dear Mrs Smith,
I am delighted that Spencer has done so well. It is outcomes like this that emphasise just how important dental disease is for our pets general health and well-being.
Thank you for your kind comments, especially those highlighting the hard work done by Louise (our qualified RVN) – VetDentist is very much a team effort.
Very best wishes to you and please give Spencer a pat from us all.

I was referred to Bob via my local vets, after many treatments had failed to clear up long term dental issues in my cat. As a survivor of cat flu, Wren lost an eye as a kitten before I adopted her, and was left with some long term effects from flu. She was getting lethargic and unhappy.
Bob has made an amazing intervention via surgery. Wren was treated like a VIP with an overnight in the care of Bob’s excellent vet nurse Louise – who provided regular text updates. Since Wren has come home the difference has been significant. A much happier and healthier cat, with lots more energy and a big appetite. She had a lot of teeth out but you would never have guessed from her quick recovery, which I attribute to the quality of surgery and the detailed after-care.
Wren is still having follow up appointments but I am really happy with everything so far.
Thank you for helping Wren have a better life.

Hi Ms Stead
We are all delighted that Wren has improved so well with treatment – there is no doubt in our minds that your TLC played a big part in the recovery!
Thank you for your kind words about our care & especially your appreciation of Louise.

Our little dog Spike went to the Vet Dentist this week, to have some infected lower fangs removed. Bob and the team were amazing, Spike had also damaged his paw and Bob managed to sort it out whilst Spike was under anaesthetic as well. It transpired to be a dislocated toe of which he was in considerable pain.
Thank you once again to Bob and the Vet Dentist team for looking after Spike and sorting this out, we cannot thank you enough for the service that we received which was excellent, friendly and very professional.

Dear Ann
Thank you for your kind words. Whilst I have been a dentistry specialist for many years, I was a general vet for years prior to that. It is sometimes nice to use the old skills and to know that they are still present – as another example we diagnosed a case of Cushing’s disease in another dog recently (which is normally an internal medicine special diagnostic area!).

I am pleased that Spike has benefitted from our dentistry skills and is now feeling a lot happier. Please give him a pat from all of us.

Bob & the VetDentist Team

I am so impressed with the knowledge, professionalism and care given to Luna during her treatment from Bob and the girls. I was shocked to find out how damaged her teeth and palette were and how much discomfort she must have been in for some considerable time. Bob was straight forward, told me exactly what treatment he thought would be required, explaining why and how in layman’s terms so that I had a full understanding.
When we collected Luna later that day, Bob explained in great detail, with photographs of the procedure, exactly what had happened.
I shall take onboard the advice Bob gave me – especially ALWAYS, ALWAYS check your dog, they do not tell us when they are in pain and it is up to us to identify any problems.
I am truly grateful that Luna did not have to have her large canine removed and her jaw compromised. She is a much happier dog, thank you so much.

Dear Annette
I am pleased that Luna is doing well and is more comfortable and happier after her treatment.
Thank you for helping to spread the message that we have to *ACTIVELY* look for dental disease.
Very best wishes and give Luna a pat from us

i would like to say a big thank you to Bob and his dedicated team for the all their wonderful care and help they gave Walter yesterday . He has a very sore mouth problem and is now receiving the best treatment with the best team i feel happy that Walter is very safe in their capable hands . With grateful thanks , .

Dear Barbara
We are at the start of Walter’s journey – but I hope that he is starting to feel better.
You are quite right – VetDentist is very much a team effort and I am proud of the real dedication of our nursing team. They are always willing to go the extra mile, because they know the patients need the care we provide. It is great that you recognise the contribution of our fantastic team to Walter’s treatment.
Please give Walter a pat from all of us

Thank you so much Bob for your skill and expertise in operating on our Corgi pup, and also for your support and understanding. Everything was fully explained and illustrated – and we felt totally confident he was in the best possible hands. Your combination of warmth, friendliness and professionalism was very reassuring as was your evident care for both owner and pup. We were amazed at how quickly our pup recovered, and it was lovely to see him wanting his food again! Thank you as well to your nurse Louise who has also been incredibly supportive – and we cannot thank her enough either. We look forward to seeing you both again at our pup’s check up in January. For us coming to see VetDentist was far more than a five star experience – thank you again.

Dear Brenda & Nigel
Thank you for your kind and supportive words.
I am really pleased that you have seen such quick improvements in your pup’s general health and behaviour.
It is always surprising just how much oral and dental pain can affect our pets generally. Often it is only when we remove that source of pain we realise just how much difference it makes.
Very best wishes to you all and we look forwards to seeing you again

Hi Bob,

Just wanted to say a big thank you to yourself for the excellent treatment you have given to Toby, our much loved working cocker, and also to the nursing care provided by Louise. When we came to you Toby`s mouth and gum on the left side of his mouth was severely infected and we were extremely concerned. However, thanks to your skill and experience you have managed to remove the infected tissue and bone after a four hour operation. On our follow up appointment today we are all excited at how well Toby is progressing. Thank you once again for the care and professionalism demonstrated by your team.

Hi Mr & Mrs Evans

I am truly delighted with the early improvement shown by Toby – but we still need to be a little cautious for the long term.

The difference in him in just a few days is remarkable. It does give some indication of what he has been going through. He is a wonderful character, as I said when first meeting him – the fact that he was still wagging his tail and letting anyone near his mouth is a tribute to his excellent nature.

We shall all keep our fingers crossed that he continues to improve as he has done so far.

Thank you for your kind words – the whole team appreciates them.

Very best wishes and a pat for Toby

Bob

Can’t rate Bob too highly, his help and support has been invaluable

A big thank you to Bob, Louise, Laura and Ariana for the impeccable operation and care on our 5 month old puppy who has an overbite. From the first conversation with Bob after our vet referred our puppy, to the day after the operation a follow up call with Louise you feel that your pet is going to be looked after by a caring and specialised team. Bob fully explained the procedure he was going to perform and gave me confidence and assurance that this was the way forward. After the procedure he fully explained with visual images what was carried out, truly amazing work.
Thank you all, looking forward to check up in September.

Dear Mr & Mrs Gillett

It was a pleasure meeting you all. I am really pleased that the procedure has made such a difference already to your pup. Seeing the effects of removing oral pain is often the only way that we realise that it was present in the first place!

Thank you so much for your appreciation of the team effort.

Very best wishes

Bob & the Team

We went to see Bob as our cocker spaniel broke some teeth playing with a tennis ball. Bob explained the options in detail and allowed us to make the decision, which was great as in the past we’ve experienced vets just telling us the most expensive option, which Bob didn’t do. Bob was also extremely helpful explaining how we should care for our dogs teeth and what toys are good, which again was great as we’ve not received this guidance before.

Our dog is on the way to full recovery know thanks to Bob and his team, I would recommend them to anyone who needs help with their dogs teeth.

Dear Ms Cordingley
Thank you for your kind words. We always believe that health care is about making joint decisions – our role is to provide the options (together with the pros and cons!) then working forwards to provide the best outcomes for whatever decision is reached.
Pleased to hear that things are going well

I am a veterinarian and pet owner and brought one of my dogs to Bob for a more complicated tooth extraction. As a veterinarian it is interesting and different being on the other side of the exam table when your own pets need treatment. I am really grateful someone with Bob’s expertise was available to treat my dog. He was very accommodating and so gentle with my dog. He showed me in detail all the work that he did with photographs and radiographs and he did a perfect job. My dog recovered quickly and has been doing well ever since! His procedure was several months ago now and we have had no follow up problems!

I would highly recommend Bob to pet owners and for veterinarians to refer cases to. Dental health often gets overlooked or ignored in pets. They suffer with the same pain that we do when there is a dental condition and deserve the same expertise and care to resolve these problems. There are not many vets with expertise in dentistry and I am so relieved Bob was available for my dog. Thank you so much Bob and team!!

Dear Dr Quinn

Many thanks for your kind and positive comments. It was a pleasure meeting MJ and I am very pleased that he has progressed well since the treatment.

First of all I would like to say a big big thank you to Bob and his amazing team, Rosie, Emily and Laura. My cat Oscar was referred to Vet Dentist in Leeds by his own vet as he has a bad problem with his teeth and gums and needed specialist treatment. Right from the start I was reassured and put at ease by Rosie, who was my first point of contact, I knew then Oscar was in good hands, she was lovely and explained everything to me. I was then contacted by Laura who sorted all the paper work out and insurance and more reassurance from her. Bob was fantastic and explained what he proposed to do with Oscar very throughly and professionally, I felt confident leaving Oscar with him. Rosie rang me during the operation to tell me everything was going well and Oscar was ok, that made me feel much better. When I went to collect Oscar that evening Bob fully explained what he had done in the operation and showed me detailed pictures, just amazing, what a talented man he is. It was quite late when I picked him up and everybody was still there to look after Oscar. The aftercare received for Oscar has been brilliant. I would like to say a big thank you again to everyone for all your care and support.
Would I recommend Bob and his team, absolutely!!

Dear Mrs Astles,
Thank you very much for your kind words. VetDentist is very much a team effort and I’d like to thank you for recognising the effort that the whole crew put into making VetDentist what it is.
I am pleased that Oscar has already started to respond well to treatment – hopefully that will continue over the next few weeks. Please give him a cuddle from all of us.

Where do i start ? From the very first call to Laura who booked us in with Jess our Border Collie, to the consultation, surgery and after care, Bob, Rosie and Emily are incredible. Who phones you up half way through surgery to let you know your dog is doing just great and puts your mind at rest. This is the time when you are the most anxious about your pet and to recieve this call was amazing. I felt far more relaxed waiting for her to come round after the procedure.
Rose came out to see me and talked me through the operation and reassured me that Jess had done so well especially as shes 9 years old.
Bob then showed me all the xrays and before and after pictures of the procedure and talked me through in depth of what the surgery entailed. I found this both emotional and reassuring as the results he achieved can only be described as outstanding. My dog was told she was going to loose all her teeth by another vet however Bob saved the majority of her teeth and i am forever grateful for this. His knowledge of vet dentistry is groundbreaking and if anyone reads this review that are unsure of who to choose to help their pet Bob, Rosie and Emily are the very, very best. If he can save teeth, he saves teeth.

Hi
Thank you for your kind words. VetDentist is very much a team effort. Without our fantastic, supportive team we could not do the work we do. I am very pleased that Jess is feeling better already after her long procedure. Hopefully over the next few days and weeks she will feel the benefit of the reduction in infection etc.
Very best wishes to you and a pat & cuddle for Jess!

Travelled from Manchester to bring our border collie for dental surgery. Bob was excellent with Dexter and showed he really cared, however he was 100% honest with the nature of Dexter’s gum damage and teeth destruction and laid out a plan for surgical repair. We both felt really comfortable handing Dexter over to both Rosie and Bob and we are incredibly grateful to Rosie in particular for staying late into the evening to care for Dexter until we could come and collect him.
We know Dexter’s case is complex and are prepared for the need for more treatment, but everything was clearly and accurately (with plenty of pictures on the big screen!) so there will be no surprises if further repair work is required. To end, Bob sent us a copy of the report/pictures so we can have another look in slower time, to take it all in.

I would highly recommend Bob, Rosie and all at VetDentist should your pet require complex dental work. It is obvious that they are experts in their field and we would have no qualms in returning if we had to. Thanks so much for everything you have done for Dexter.

Dear Mrs & Mr Middleton
It was a pleasure seeing you and Dexter. I hope that we have helped deal with some of Dexter’s immediate issues and left him feeling more comfortable than he has been.
As you note – VetDentist is very much a team effort & I am pleased that with Rosie, Laura, Arianna and Emily we have a group of professionals whose only interest is in providing excellence in patient care.
Thank you for your kind messages, obviously our greatest reward is in helping our patients – but client appreciation of our efforts comes a very close second!
Very best wishes and a pat and cuddle for Dexter

We we’re referred to the VetDentist after our dog broke a tooth. Everything was managed in a caring a professional way, all of the treatment options were clearly explained and it was clear from the start of our visit that our dog was going to be looked after well. The communication was excellent, from the start of the referral to helping with the insurance claim. This is an excellent dentist that I highly recommend.

Could’t be more pleased with every aspect of our experience. My vet wanted to extract a broken tooth but I decided to look at other options and came across Bob – only an hour away too. The service was excellent – from initial telephone contact to the treatment. The whole process was thoroughly explained before and after and we now have a dog with a saved tooth. Fabulous, quick, kind & professional service. Thank you. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Hi Tracy
Very pleased that we were able to help. Where we can, we try and preserve teeth. Sometimes the success will depend upon the post-operative care that is able to be provided by the owners. In this case I am confident that the best possible care will be available.
Thank you for the kind words – they are appreciated by the whole team.

I want to thank the fantastic team of Bob Partridge; his resident Arianna and nurse Louise who carried out extensive work on my Ridgeback Oscar. the original plan was to take biopsies; clean his teeth and assess what future work would be possible as judging from the scans the prognosis was not looking good.

When Bob and his team started they realised the situation was better then appeared in the scans and were able to effect repairs involving removal of dentigerous cysts in the top and bottom of Oscar’s jaw; extraction of damaged teeth and bone grafts; work which took nearly 4 hours.

Despite Covid restrictions meaning the practice is running with a skeleton staff; Bob took the time to explain everything and keep me informed. The professionalism; expertise and care provided by him; Arianna and Louise was exemplary.

Dear Ms Sykes
Thank you so very much for all of your kind words. Your appreciation of what (as always) is a team effort is very gratifying.
We are all keeping our fingers crossed for the histology results on the cysts and are hoping for a good outcome.
It was a pleasure treating Oscar – a gentle giant!

I have two cats who have both been suffering from serious stomatitis and were both in considerable pain. I took them to see Bob last week and they both needed surgery, which turned out to be more complicated than we had initially hoped. We were kept up to date throughout the day and were finally able to collect them at 1930. The team of Bob, Laura, Lauren, Charlotte and Ariana all worked really hard for them and had stayed on to see them through for which we are very grateful; thank you very much all. Superb service and real, hard to find, specialist expertise.

Dear Carol
Apologies for the delay in replying to your wonderful review. I am really pleased that things went so well for your pets – although it was a long day for the team.

We brought in our 7 month old toy poodle Mabel for some teeth removed, we were very anxious about leaving her. Once we’d met Arianna and she talked us through the process of what she was going to do step by step we were knew straight away she was in safe hands. She took fantastic care of our fur baby. Even on collection we were shown all the X-rays of before and after. Thank you so much for sorting out her teeth. She’s much happier now with just the one set.

Thank you to the whole team, the treatment and care given to my big scared dog Jaxon was second to none, Bob was excellent with him and he was put at ease straight away, all my worrying had been for nothing, I was so impressed. The dental procedure was amazing, his teeth look wonderful, and he already seems much happier in himself, everything was explained in great detail, the pictures and x-rays were very impressive. I would highly recommend this wonderful team, and just to tell anyone worried about leaving their very precious pet in their care, then don’t worry, they will definitely take care of them as you would hope.
Thank you all so much.

Our own vet referred us to VetDentist, as our Yorkshire Terrier, Finley, was in need of treatment for long-standing teeth and gum problems (common with this breed). We visited Bob and his amazing team yesterday.

This resulted in Finley having surgery to have teeth removed and bone grafts. Without going into detail, both my husband and I are amazed at what has been achieved in just one surgery. We’re not out of the woods yet, but we are now hopeful for the future. It is obvious to us, after seeing VetDentist and their approach, that their care and understanding for the well-being of their patients is paramount, never mind the expertise shown in all areas, be it consultation, diagnosis or surgery.

Bob and his wonderful team of nurses worked late into the evening to help Finley. Despite this, Bob gave us a comprehensive run-down of Finley’s condition, explaining everything with photographs taken before, during and after surgery.

We would like to extend a huge and heartfelt thanks to both Bob and his wonderful nursing staff. We would not hesitate to recommend.

Dear Mrs Opacic
Really pleased that Finley is doing so well & thank you so much for your kind words and appreciation of our Team effort.

Arianna looked after my black Labrador Lola last week. She needed a general anaesthetic and X-rays to check her teeth and make sure her previous root canal filling she had with Bob a few months before was intact.
Arianna explained all the possibilities for treatment in detail. She said she would call me when Lola was under anaesthetic to discuss the findings. She did and fortunately Lola didn’t need any treatment apart from a good clean and coating applied to some sensitive areas.
Lola was very nervous but Arianna was so kind and gentle with her. You can see how much she loves animals.
Thank you for your excellent service and for looking after Lola so well.

Dear Mrs Webb
Very pleased that Lola is doing so well after the root canal treatment.
Thank you so much for your praise of Arianna – she is, as you say, very kind and gentle with her patients.
Very best wishes

Flame had been kicked in the face by a horse (we think) just before Christmas. His lower jar was dislocated and he was in a lot of pain. Our Vet referred us to VetDentist.. Flame was seen swiftly and his jaw repositioned. He wasn’t just a number, the team followed him up by phone calls and emails, and we attended his follow-up appointment this month. The expertise of Bob Partridge is second to none. He is a true Professional and we would highly recommend him and his team. Laura and Rosie were always friendly and helpful on the phone and when we met face to face. Even though it was over 2 hours travel each way and a long day for all of us, it was worth it . Flame has made a full recovery and is back to enjoying his favourite biscuits. But is keeping away from the horses.

Dear Mrs Mannering,
We are all so pleased that Flame has done so well with his surgery. Hopefully he will have no long term after effects from the trauma.
Thank you for your appreciative message – we are very much a team effort. I couldn’t do my job without their backup.
Very best wishes from all of us

Skye was referred to Bob with Lingually displaced lower canines at the age of 17 weeks. From the time we arrived Bob and his team put us at ease and explained all about the operation Skye needed to remove the teeth. We were kept updated throughout the day while Skye was having her operation and during recovery. Upon collecting Skye later the same day Bob talked us through the operation showing photos and X-rays. Skye is well on the mend and looking forward to going back to see Bob in September.
I would 100% recommend Bob and his team.
Thanks again Skye

Dear Keith,
Thank you for your appreciative comments. We do try and involve owners in their pet’s care by providing as much information as possible. Skye was a super patient and we look forward to welcoming you both to our new facility in September.

Bob & the VetDentist Team

Firstly I’m not one for ever writing reviews, however in this case I simply couldn’t not!

I can honestly say words are just not enough so say how grateful I am. I want to say a massive THANK YOU to Bob and his lovely team for treating my very poorly 9 year old Persian Exotic Petal. I am so grateful for what you have done for her.

Petals Story-
I initially took Petal to a Vet practice in Leeds as I had noticed she didn’t seem her happy little self, she had also developed very smelly breath.

To cut a very long and complicated story short! Eight frustrating and stressful months later, multiple treatments, procedures and trips to the Vets and not to mention a massive amount of money spent, Petal was no better, and in my opinion worse than she was when initially first seen at the Vets.

I was finally referred to Bob after the Vets seemed to be at a loss of what to do next with her. All I can say is i so wish I had known about the amazing Bob and his practice sooner.

During Petals initial consultation with Bob he took his time to assess her thoroughly. Bob explained what he intended to do, the best cause of action step by step, and although he was hopeful he was also very straight to the point and didn’t dress anything up. He was happy to answer any question I had and was also kind to me when I became emotional. I felt confident that I had left her in good hands.

After a long day in surgery I picked Petal up from the VetDentist. Bob explained what he had done and his findings in detail, also showing me x rays and photographs he had taken.

Well what can I say, from the minute I got Petal home she has been like her old super cute self. Eating lots, cleaning herself, following me everywhere and snuggling up on my shoulder whenever she gets the chance. She is also no longer pawing at her mouth which she had been doing for the last six months, which has been really hard to watch. I was totally amazed it was more that I could have ever hoped for. A week on and Petal is continuing to do really well, I couldn’t be happier and I can tell she is too.

Petal has now had her weekly postoperative check up with Bob, which he was more than happy to do as I didn’t feel comfortable going back to the Vets I had originally gone to. I was so please to hear he was really happy with how things were looking and the progress she has made so far. You could tell he genuinely cared.

Petal isn’t quite out of the woods just yet as we are still waiting for some results to come back from a biopsy and a couple of tests done, but fingers and toes crossed all will be well.

To anyone feeling at a loss of what to do with treatment for their pet, who to turn to or looking into where to get referred, I honestly couldn’t recommend Bob and his team more.

In a nut shell I found Bob to be professional, highly knowledgable, clearly skilled in what he does, confident, kind, caring, honest and I definitely felt he had my pets best interest at heart.

From the first consultation with Bob to the unexpected aftercare call I received to see how Petal was doing, to the nurse who was kind and gentle when holding Petal whilst Bob took postoperative photographs, to anyone else who was involved in any way that I didn’t get to meet, Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!

Warmest & Kindest Regards

Kim & Petal

Dear Kim

It is not often that I am lost for words, but your kind appreciation of our work has achieved that…

I am delighted that Petal seems well on the mend and that things are heading in the right direction.

Very best wishes to you both

Bob

My Norfolk Terrier Gus had to have some extensive dental work and extractions today. This was my first time visiting the clinic and Bob and the staff were welcoming and professional. Although it was distressing to find out the extent of the surgery needed, Bob explained everything in detail and how the procedure would go. It was a long and arduous day all round with a very late finish for Bob and nurses Rosie and Emily who were very late home for their tea!!

I cannot thank them all enough for the care and attention they gave to Gus while he was with them. It was very much appreciated to know he was in such good hands.

Hope the big move goes smoothly and we will see you in the new building!

Thank you again 🙂

Dear Liz
Thank you for your comments. It was a pleasure trying to help Gus and we are pleased that he did so well.
We are looking forwards to welcoming you to our new purpose built facility

Bob & the Team

Extremely professional, treated our Cocker spaniel Toffee with upmost care. Detailed report and explanation of her condition, and what was done to resolve. Also rang us a few days after procedure to make sure she was well. They do really care for your pet.

Dear Mr Gordon
It was a pleasure to treat Toffee and I am pleased that things went well for her.
Thank you for your appreciation of the reports that we send out – it is great to hear that you found them useful

Bob

Honestly can not fault the Vet Dentist, their due care and attention to the needs of my dog was paramount! We felt completely at ease with Arianna and her genuine love for her job showed.
Thank you so much!

Thank you so much for sharing your kind words – both here and on Google reviews.
Arianna is an excellent addition to our team and I am pleased that you felt so comfortable placing your pet into her care.

The VetDentist Team

I can honestly say that the vet, Bob Pritchard and all of his staff exceeded all expectations on the day that my cocker spaniel dog was admitted for necessary urgent dental treatment. Whilst Bob was very professional and caring in all stages of his welfare and treatment, I can also add that his staff all showed their concerns about my dogs welfare and made sureof all of his needs throughout the day. Their advice coupled with their care showed to me that they went the further mile to assist wherever possible.A great team effort and I am very confident in them all for future appointments. Well done!

Dear Mr Walker
I am pleased that things went well and I hope that he is feeling more comfortable now. As you realised, we are very much a team effort in providing care for our patients. I couldn’t do my part, without the assistance and dedication of our nursing colleagues.
Please give him a pat for us all, and we look forward to seeing you back for the second stage of treatment.

Best wishes

Bob Partridge & the VetDentist Team

Thankyou so much to Bob and the team for fixing Stanley’s teeth. We now have a Springer Spaniel with a perfect smile. You all went over and above after finding more than the original issue and worked late to get the job done. Stan and I are very grateful. Thankyou.

Dear Mrs Dryden

Thank you so much for your kind words and appreciation of the team effort. It was a pleasure meeting you and Stanley and I hope that he is feeling better now.

Please give him a pat from all of us!

I have visited Bob several times over the last year with my Yorkshire terrier Milly, who has received treatment for teeth and gum issues. I initially visited my usual vet who treated Milly and removed several teeth. However they were unable to provide any further treatment for her due to her size and the complexity of the surgery. After some enquiries we were eventually referred to Bob and his team in the hope that he could offer some help.

From the first visit it became very clear that the issues with Milly were far more serious than we had been informed and Bob took the time to explain in fine detail what issues we were facing, the treatments available and the expected outcome (in stark contrast to what we had been told previously). From the outset Bob was the consummate professional and was not phased by the difficult surgery required and displayed a level of expertise that is second to none. Milly’s treatment involved teeth removal, bone graft implants and gum disease treatment. On her last visit Bob also removed a growth from Milly’s head which was not planned and was fitted in around her scheduled visit. After every visit Bob has given us a detailed rundown of the procedure with supporting photos and x-rays and detailed care instructions. I genuinely don’t think I could have received any better treatment anywhere else and doubt that we would have Milly any longer had he not treated her.

At all visits Bob and the team have been totally professional and displayed a level of knowledge and care second to none. The service has always been first class and courteous and on my last visit Bob was thoughtful enough to take the time to speak with my young son who had accompanied me on the long journey.

I’d like to offer a heartfelt thanks to Bob and his team for all their help and would not hesitate to recommend them for any treatments. To date Milly is her old self and full of life and happily waiting for her next visit.

Dear Mr Lee,
Apologies for the delay in responding to your kind review.
It has been a pleasure helping Milly – who is a super, brave little dog. I am so pleased that you have noticed such an improvement in her.
I enjoyed meeting your son – who is far more knowledgeable about Dinosaurs than I could have imagined!
Very best wishes to you all & thanks again from all of the Team

Bob Partridge

I really don’t know where to begin. My one year old cat, Bruce (The Bat Cat as he has a patch of white like a bat sign on his chest) had a lump in his mouth that my vet said needed surgery and recommended Bob. After speaking to Bob and how serious this was I was extremely worried. After extensive radical surgery Bruce is home adjusting to life after his surgery on his jaw. Hes still not out of the woods but I’m hoping and praying that all will be well. I cannot thank Bob and his team of nurses and reception staff enough. A mere thank you would never be enough for bringing hope where we feared they may be none. Bob is honest, compassionate, caring, extremely skilled, a professional and a damn good human being. We met the nurses after Bruces surgery and without there help, again, Bruce may not be home. So I really want this review to show that Bob and his team deserve every award possible, the only reward we can give is our total gratitude. Thank you…everyone at the clinic.

Dear Mr Yarwood,

I am pleased that Bruce is doing well. We are obviously just at the start of his journey – but let us keep our fingers crossed!

We are all very touched by your kind words of appreciation
Thank you

Bob & the VetDentist Team

I never give reviews, but in this case it is so well deserved that I felt that I must.

Positive: Professionalism, Value, Kindness, Care and Understanding.

Excellent, Professional service by Bob and his team from start to finish.

Following our referral to Bob and his co-workers we were contacted almost immediately and our concerns were alleviated with kindness and understanding. Everything was explained to me in minute detail and all the photos and x-rays showed how intricate the problems in Bosco, my shih tzu’s mouth really were.

I cannot give enough praise to Bob, Laura and Arianna for all the trouble they went to in order to relieve Bosco of the pains he must have been suffering, and they worked on him until well into the evening in order to help him.

The following day I received all the x-rays and pictures and full details of all the procedures that had been undertaken to relieve Bosco of his suffering.

I cannot give enough praise to a truly wonderful team who, it is obvious, really care for their patients and I cannot recommend them enough.

I travelled from Blackpool to Leeds for this care, and after seeing the work that they do, I would gladly travel twice the distance in order to have the same team caring for my dog.

They are all truly amazing and cannot be given enough praise for the good work they perform day after day with kindness and care.
Grateful regards,,

Vanda & Bosco
I truly give 100% recommendation to anyone who’s pet needs dental work.

Dear Vanda,
Thank you so much for your review. I really appreciate the fact that you have chosen to leave a review for us, when it is unusual for you to do so.
Your kind words are very touching to the whole team. Thank you.
I’d also like to thank you for being so understanding when a complicated case meant that Little Bosco had to stay later than we had expected.
Very best wishes and thank you once again

Bob & the VetDentist Team

I had to take Polly, my cocker spaniel to visit Bob after she developed a cyst in her lower jaw. The staff were all really friendly and no helpful, understanding both my anxiety and Pollys nervousness. The nurses were very patient and caring, Bob was very clear with is explanation of what he would be doing and why. Big thanks to Bob and his team of nurses

Dear Mrs Bennett

Obviously we are at the start of Polly’s journey – but I hope we have made good progress.

Thank you so much for your appreciation of our Team, we were pleased to welcome you to our new facilities, with all of our new equipment. The CT scanner in particular will help in visualizing problems & helping communication with owners.

We do understand the anxiety that having our loved pets in for surgery can cause, especially when many of our procedures can be quite long and involved. I am glad that felt that our team helped you through that.

Very best wishes to you and a big pat to Polly !

Bob Partridge & the VetDentist Team

My cat Amber was admitted yesterday she needed dental X-rays and ended up needing an extraction, root canal filling and cleaning etc. I was fully informed of everything start to finish, always kept updated and felt Amber was really looked after. Amazing to see dental X-rays and pictures of Ambers teeth which was interesting and could see how much VetDentist had worked on her teeth. Amber wasn’t actually admitted for that long considering how much they had done, really fast work! They rang today to see how Amber was getting on which was so lovely, and Amber is doing great. 10/10 would recommend to anyone’s pet who has dental problems. Thank you again to everyone at VetDentist who was involved in Amber’s care.

Dear Danielle

Thank you for your kind words and appreciation of the care from our team, and of the skill of Arianna my Resident.

I hope that Amber will soon be feeling more comfortable.

I self referred my 16 year old dog Jess to Bob’s practice as her bad breath had got dramatically worse over the previous 2 months and as a minimum I knew she needed her teeth cleaning because she had terrible tartar. (Jess doesn’t let me clean her teeth). I wasn’t happy with my usual vets attitude towards sorting out any issues with her mouth hence the self referral. I travelled from Lancashire and it was the best thing I could have done. It turns out she had 4 fractured teeth and an abcess aswell as needing a seriously good clean.
From the minute I arrived and met Arianna I knew Jess was in good hands. Within 5 minutes I knew Jess had severe problems that had not been picked up previously and was immediately given a full and thorough estimate of costs and talked through exactly what would be done. It was an extremely long day due to some issues with another operation but it was well worth it. I didn’t get to meet Bob but Arianna blew me away with the depth of her knowledge and skill. Jess only needed 2 of the fractured teeth out as the other 2 were actually not causing issues. My dog now doesn’t have smelly breath at all so she’s clearly had problems for the 11 years I’ve owned her and they’ve been missed. A shout out aswell for Jenny the receptionist who was lovely throughout the day when I rang to check when Jess could be discharged. Overall I’m more than happy with everything and cannot fault this dentist’s professionalism.

Dear Mrs Farrington
I am glad that Arianna’s expertise has helped Jess.
Thank you very much for taking the time to note your appreciation of her efforts and for those of our team.

Lottie our 10 1/2 year old Labrador was referred to Bob Partridge at Harrogate Pet Dental Hospital. This was due to the complex nature of Lottie’s requirements for her dental care.
On the same day that Lottie saw our own vet, she sent a referral and we got a call that day from the dental hospital to arrange for a suitable date for Lottie’s appointment. We were made aware that she would be there from 9.30am to possibly 7pm in the evening and informed of the way the day would go.
On the day of the appointment, we rang up and I was advised to go in with Lottie to see Bob. She had her consultation; I was advised of the plan for Lottie and the estimated cost and consent was duly signed.
We got a call at lunchtime from the nurse to advise us of the CT scan findings and what treatment was required. We got a call later on in the day again from the nurse advising us that Lottie was fine and we were advised to collect her about 7pm
Whilst we were waiting to collect her, the nurse came out 3 times to apologise to us as Bob was still operating on another dog as Lottie’s surgery had unexpectedly overrun as she was under anaesthetic for over 4 hours due to her complex dental surgery.
When Bob had completed all his surgery, both my husband and myself were invited into see Lottie’s CT scan and all her images. Bob explained everything extremely clearly and we have since received copies emails with all images and full explanation of the surgery that were sent to our own vet.
Even at that late hour, the nurses had stayed behind and were still cleaning up.
We cannot complement all the staff enough. They were awesome and extremely professional.
Thank you everyone at the clinic.
Lottie will be back in a month for further surgery as there was not enough time to do everything on one day.

Dear Mrs Wright,
Really pleased that we were able to make Lottie more comfortable. I am so proud of our team & all the work they put in. Thank you for taking the time to recognise their dedication and professionalism.
Looking forwards to seeing Lottie again

My three British shorthair silver tabby’s required various dental treatment following referral from my vet. They were all seen and treated on the same day with amazing care and expertise. Would have no hesitation in recommending in fact I’d go there myself!!!

Hi Elissa

Thank you for your review.
I am really pleased that we managed to help your three lovely cats.

Thank you for your recommendation
We look forward to seeing you again soon.

Jenny & the VetDentist Team

I’ve taken my Miniature Schnauzer puppy Echo to the VetDentist twice now and they have been absolutely amazing with her. She first had her retained baby teeth removed, then a couple of month later had her lanced canines remove. The second time we went Echo happily trotted into the practice eager to see the team at VetDentist again despite having had several teeth out the previous time, showing the care (and especially the cuddles) from the team had made what could have been a very overwhelming experience for a puppy enjoyable.
Both Bob and Arianna were extremely helpful in their consults, spending time giving her a thorough examination and discussing at length all the options I had for Echo. I was especially impressed with the high quality photographs and radiographs which were shown at discharge so I could see in detail the problems Echo started with and how successful the operations had gone.
I am especially grateful to Bob for being so generous with his time and sharing his expertise when he let me, a veterinary student, watch him operate on my dog to remove her canines. It was truly amazing to watch and I learnt so much from it. He was so gentle with her, both her canines were removed with very little force and instead just a lot of skill. Despite having her two big adult canines removed the next day Echo was bouncing around as if nothing had happened to her. Being able to come into the operating theatre allowed me to meet all the hard working and friendly nurses who continually work to meet Bob’s high standards and give the best possible care for all the in patients.
I really appreciate the phone calls the day after Echo’s operations, it shows that the team at VetDentist don’t just want to get through patients, but they care about their outcomes and really care that their patients still get the best care even after they have left their premises.
I would not hesitate to bring a pet back to the VetDentist and will definitely be recommending them.

Dear Emma
Thank you for your kind review.
It was a pleasure having you with us for the day. We hope that you enjoyed it & it was not too stressful seeing your own dog being operated on. Echo is a little sweetie & I am glad the op went well and she is feeling fine now.
Very best wishes for your future studies

The professionalism and careng of Arianna to our 16 year old jack russell dog was second to none. All aspects of his treatment were carefully explained and we had no doubts that his treatment was going to be successful, we were kept informed of his progress during his stay , and after a long day we were able to take home a happy and healthy pet, and many thanks to all the staff that were involved in his visit.

Dear Mr & Mrs Middleton
I am pleased that things went so well for Barney. Care of the older patient can be tricky and this is why we gear our anaesthetic regimes for the higher risk patients.
I have no doubt that Barney will be feeling a lot better after his treatment.
Thank you for your note of appreciation of the care from our team. The team at VetDentist have been carefully selected – they all have the commitment to our patients’ best interests and welfare.
It is a priviledge for me to work with such a dedicated team with our matched ethos.
Arianna will very much appreciate your comments

Please give Barney a pat from all of us

As a family we cannot thank Bob, the practice nurses and Jenny enough for all the care and compassion they have shown towards Winston (our much loved rescue dog) and us. Bob was our last hope of giving him back a better quality of life, getting him off the steroids and improving his pain. Whilst we know it’s still a waiting game, we’re extremely appreciative of the lengthy and difficult surgery that Bob and his team undertook yesterday at extremely short notice.
Winston’s condition, his prognosis and all the details of his procedure were explained so carefully by Bob. We know that relief from the condition is not a guarantee, but we’re confident that Bob and the team have and will give him the best chance that they can.
I cannot recommend them enough, the whole referral process from our vet was efficient and Jenny was so helpful in arranging the appointment and providing us with updates.

A big thank you for your care and professionalism with our Jack Russel dog Molly. We were reassured from the moment we stepped into the door she was in good hands. When she returned later in the day, following long dental surgery she seemed relaxed. I am so pleased we have found you and know we can come back for future dental care. It was interesting seeing the X-rays and also good to get suggestions on her dental care.
Thanks from the Crick family.

Dear Mrs Crick

Thank you for your kind review. I am glad that we have helped Molly feel better. Spending time showing clients the xrays and pictures of the procedures helps to explain what we have done to help their pets. The follow up report also helps to reinforce the important messages about preventive care.

Thank you once again for your kind review.

Very best wishes to you all and a pat for Molly

Thank you so much for the care you took with Toby yesterday. It was such a long day but even when I was finally able to pick him up at 8pm everyone I met and spoke too was still so friendly and informative and professional. From Bob who took the time to show me photos of Toby’s surgery to the lovely lady on the phone who offered me use of the facilities and to make me a drink if I was waiting in the cold and everyone behind the scenes who I didn’t have the pleasure of meeting jn person, you all helped make a scary and exhausting time much more bearable. The work Toby needed also came in significantly under Mr Partridge’s estimate and I really appreciated the honesty in reducing the operation fee. The follow-up call today and the very rapid response to my emails were also wonderful. Would recommend this service to anyone facing difficult times with their pet’s teeth, just wish we lived closer!

Dear Mrs Bull
It was a pleasure meeting you and Toby and I am sorry it was a long day for you both.
I am delighted with the treatment and hopefully Toby will be feeling much better.
Thank you so much for your appreciation of the whole team – it really is a joint effort to provide the care for our patients and clients.

I brought my dog Finn in for major dental work with Bob Partridge. My dog had been suffering from enamel dysplasia and had obviously been suffering for some time.
Bob was very friendly, explained to me in detail about the issue and how he would be performing the procedure, which gave me reassurance Finn was in capable hands.

I’d like to say a big thanks to all the nurses as well, they were friendly and went above and beyond to help. Due to the severity of Finns condition it took all day and he was not discharged until 8pm at night. This meant additional hours for Bob and the nurses. We are very grateful for your effort.

Hi
I am glad that we were able to help Finn and hope that he is feeling less sensitive around his teeth after our treatment.
Thank you so very much for your words of appreciation for the hard work of our Team –

What a knowledgeable man Bob Partridge is and he gives you the information you need to make the best decision for your pet. He treated my 14 year old Maine Coon cat Bish for a lump in his upper mouth and treated him just like a baby. we are still waiting for the histology result but Bish seems much better already. Bob even rang me the day after he performed the operation which I consider above and beyond .

Dear Mrs Byrne

I am glad that Bish is feeling better after the initial exploratory/investigative surgery.

We are all keeping our fingers crossed for him

Thank you for your kind words

Our cat had to have major dental surgery a few weeks ago.
From start to finish, the consultations and way that information was explained to us was excellent.
We felt confident and comfortable leaving our cat in their care.
The advice regarding aftercare was easy to understand.
She’s back in a few weeks for the final part of her treatment.
Would highly recommend this practice to anyone.

Dear Mrs Lunn
Thank you very much for your recommendation – it means a lot to all of us.
We shall see you again soon

I was quite worried when our vet said Daisy my maltipoo needed to see a specialist about her teeth. When we met Bob he explained everything to me as her mouth was in a really poor state. I did feel better knowing she was in his hands and that he would make her better. When I picked her up Bob had only been able to deal with her bottom jaw with 4 teeth taken out and bone grafts because she had small holes in her jaw. The ct scans and x rays were amazing to see. We needed another appointment so her top jaw could be sorted which was this week 5 Jan. When we picked her up it turned out the teeth weren’t as bad as we thought and only needed a very good clean. He was happy that the bone graft was starting to do it’s job and we have a follow up appointment in July which I am very happy about. Daisy is enjoying her food more now she can eat properly and her tail never stops wagging
Bob is very reassuring I can’t praise him enough he did a fantastic job with Daisy. The nurses are very kind and loving to the pets you can see how much they care about their work. Jenny on reception is lovely to talk to on the telephone really polite and helpful.
I would highly recommend Bob and his team.

Dear Mrs Carp

What a lovely review. Thank you so much, the whole team will really appreciate your kind words and praise.

I am delighted that Daisy is doing so well. As you say the infection in the lower molars was so severe that it had eaten away at the jaw bone itself. Left much longer jaw fractures would have been inevitable – so it is great we were able to step in when we did.

Daisy is so lucky to have such a wonderful, caring family

Best wishes to you all

Bob was extremely knowledgeable and carefully explained what had caused the damage to Alfie’s teeth. He then talked me through all the work that would have to be done on Alfie’s teeth. I left the surgery confident things would be ok. I was asked to call in the afternoon for a time to collect Alfie. It took far longer than thought but the end result was amazing. When I got back to the clinic Bob talked me through what he had done and showed me photos on the big screen of before during and after the procedure. I f you look at Alfie’s teeth now you would not know he had any work done. The veterinary nurses who looked after Alfie also made sure I was ok. It was quite stressful to wonder if he would be ok. They rang me several times to reassure me that the procedure was going Well and Alfie was ok. The worked until I collected him at 8.00pm. They were all marvellous and I cannot thank them enough.

Dear Mr Watkins

It was a pleasure meeting you and helping Alfie with his dental condition.
Thank you so much for your appreciation of the way our team works together – tying to get the best results for our patients and our clients.

Please give Alfie a pat from all of us

Bruce, my blue Staffordshire bull terrier had broken his front canine and we were referred to take him to the Vet Dentist for a root canal procedure. The procedure took longer than anticipated and also another tooth at the back that was bad was removed at the same time. I would like to thank Bob and all his nursing staff for staying and working late , so that everything could be done in the same day. Bruce says woof woof too

Dear Mrs Hartley

I am sorry that it was such a long day. Bruce was a little star and enjoyed being cuddled by the nurses.

Thank you for your appreciation of the whole team effort –

We attended the Vet Dentist with our dog, Dennis, and could not have been more impressed with the treatment and explanation of what and why the treatment was needed and what it was going to entail, they were superb.
Dennis had to have a large back tooth removed due to it having fractured right through and the treatment was super and completed in the space of 8hrs, we dropped him off in the morning and picked him up later that afternoon.
They even rang me up the day after his treatment to ask how he was doing which I thought was a lovely touch.
He was back to his usual daft self within hours and is now fully recovered and back to normal.
I would not hesitate to recommend this practise to anyone who needs treatment for their animals mouth and/or teeth, all the team were fantastic and the service was absolutely first class and cannot be faulted.
They supplied us and our usual vet surgery with a full report on Dennis’s treatment and they dealt with our insurance forms for us.

Dear Mr Bartley,
I am pleased that Dennis is feeling more comfortable now. As a VetDentist, I always prefer to try and save teeth where I can. However, sometime the only, or the best, option is extraction. We try and perform this in the best possible way to ensure that our patients are free of pain as quickly as possible. I am glad that Dennis has benefitted from this.
Thank you for your kind words about our team – they really are great.

Best wishes

Bob

Mabel our mini schnauzer was referred for a fracture to her back tooth caused by a hard bone. Unfortunately the situation was a little more complex with other work required and the tooth couldn’t be saved. It was a very long journey and a long day but the administrator Jenny, Bob and his fabulous nursing team stayed late to get everything done in one day. I can’t thank them enough for their reassurance and attention to detail and the care they showed for our girl! They even rang a couple of days later to check all was ok. We look forward to seeing you again for her check up.

Dear Mrs Walder

Thank you for your kind review. I am sorry that we were not able to save the tooth, sometimes things are too severe to be salvaged. Thank you for your patience and for your appreciation of the VetDentist Team – it is very much appreciated.

Looking forwards to seeing you and Mabel again

Best wishes

Bob
