Dr. Goodhead and team took wonderful care of our Chiky, who came all the way from Zambia for surgery. They could not have been more kind, empathetic, and patient with us and with Chiky. Thank you!!!

I have taken a few years to write this post- towards the end of May 2017 we took our beloved Dexter(Rottweiler) for an op to fix an eye lid that was causing an ulcer on the eye. When we arrived earlier than advised to pick him up ,there were dogs lying in passages ,not being handled with any great care I must say, op room open and not sterile and and and......when Dex was able to leave we departed....he was coughing and wheezing all the time...we took him to our vet as we thought maybe something had got caught in his throat- our vet sedated Dex and looked into his mouth and throat and there was nothing there.....other than a very inflamed throat-our vet did not say directly but insinuated that the throat had been hurt" during his operation.Unfortunately Dexter passed away at our vet

Miracle workers! Dr Goodhead and his team are absolutely amazing. You won't find better care for your pets. Our Ava had a cataract surgery on one eye and the other eye removed. Through both surgeries and consultations all the staff were so warm and welcoming. Friendly reception, and such compassionate and caring doctors. We cannot thank Dr Goodhead and his team enough....they've given Ava back her happy life.

They sorted out our doggie's eye that another vet had messed up. Great hospital for the furkids.

Our dog received life changing medical assistance with his eye. After a month, he is better than ever.

Very professional and knowledgeable specialists. Receptionist very unfriendly and grumpy. Other staff wonderful.

Very professional, friendly. Nice that they don't charge a fee for a follow up when it's soon after the first visit. More expensive than your normal vet, but it's a specialist hospital, so similar to visiting specialist vs GP for humans.Update: Dr Goodhead and the team really are excellent. Took my cat 3 months, but they got her there. Her graft is now healed and I'm so glad I opted for it rather than removing the eye.

Astro our yorkie developed cataracts due to his diabetic condition. He is seven years old and went totally blind in a matter of days. We took him to the Animal Eye Clinic and had an assessent done. Dr Goodhead was very knowlegeable, experienced and defintely a dedicated and committed doctor. He is an Ophthamologist and a special one indeed. He has the best equipment and machinary to carry out the required tests. Astro was able to have the surgery. A document detailing the procedure, risks and pricing were sent to us for understanding. Dr Goodhead and staff were very patient, caring and kind at all times during and after the surgery. They answered any questions and fears we might have had. The surgery was successful and Astro can now see again, my happy, lively, full of energy yorkie is back! He runs after the birds and hadidas in the garden again, loves to fight with the flies and insects in the garden. He plays catch again and loves to run up and down the stairs.This is MY miracle of 2022 - to give my little yorkie his eye sight back is worth every cent I spent.A BIG thank you to Dr Goodhead and the Team, without you Astro would not be able to see the beautiful world again! He loves the beach and runs up and down the shore enjoying the waves and smelling the sea air but most of all enjoys the walks on the promenade and growling at the huge dogs again! He is back in action!Thank you again and again.The Betci Family and Astro
