Why do Ryde pet owners come here?
Ryde owners come to us for the everyday things and for the ones that turn out to be more than routine. The scan, the dental, the operation and the check afterwards all happen in one building, with the same team. You can book straight in, and you do not need a referral.
What can you treat here?
Everything in this list happens in this building, with the same team who see your pet in the consult room.
Imaging, dentistry and surgery all happen here, with the team who already know your pet. If a consult turns into something bigger, the next step is down the corridor, and the same notes and the same vets follow your pet through it.
Every plan is built around the pet in front of us after a proper examination, and we talk you through what each step is for before anything goes ahead. Most pets never need more than a check-up and their vaccinations, and that is a good day for everybody.
Where do people walk their dogs around Ryde?
A lot of what we see in a week starts on a walk: a limp, a grass seed in a paw, an itchy ear, a scuffle at the park. A couple of well used spots around Ryde: Ryde Park and Denistone Park.
Grass seeds are the one worth knowing about around here. They work into a paw or an ear over a few days, so a quick look through the coat after a walk is worth the minute it takes. Same with a limp that settles overnight and comes back on the next walk. Seen early, most of these are a straightforward consult, so ring us and we will take a look.
How do I get there from Ryde?

Is the drive from Ryde worth it?
For everyday care, plenty of Ryde owners come to us simply because the appointment times suit. For the harder cases it is the imaging and the surgical team, here in the same building, so your pet is looked after start to finish by people who know them.
Brilliant practice, lovely staff. Very kind and respectful (veterinary nurse Hayley is an angel!) Vets are extremely knowledgeable and will offer you the true picture. My experience with Dr Matt has been amazing over the past few years but particularly now - he has been honest and upfront with me during my dogs terminal cancer journey, offering timely surgery and the option of chemo or palliative care. I’m so extremely grateful for his skilled guidance during this difficult time - it’s made the world of difference having the options explained PROPERLY to me so that I can make an informed decision re my dogs care. Thank you Dr Matt!
