My dog was hit by a car which did not stop, I had no appointment though the dog is registered with Grove vets, he was seen within an hour and thankfully he is bruised but fine. Thankyou to the staff and the vet who examined him!

I can't thank the staff of Groove vets enough for being so lovely, kind and respectful when we had to put our cat Diesel to sleep last week. They made the whole experience easier for us as a family to accept. Wonderful staff. Thank you
