Multiple Winners

Monthly staff training

Because the team Struggletown always pride ourselves on giving both the best and most up to date care for your pet, as well as the amazing customer service to go along with this, we will be closing our doors, and turning our phones off for 2 hrs in the middle of the day for staff training/meetings towards the end of each month so that we are able to service our clients in the best possible way. We will of course re-open like normal at the end of this.

For any critical emergencies during this time please phone the emergency clinic phone number that is on our answering machine. Thank you for your understanding.

Wonderful vet practice. Clear and good communication. All the vets we’ve met have been great and the staff are all kind and competent and we feel we can absolutely trust them with our dog. Our dog recently had a procedure and start to end process was smooth and they gave us helpful advice about insurance claim etc.
