St. James Veterinary Group Penllergaer: Reviews
Fantastic experience: I cannot praise St.James Veterinary practice enough. Teddy (cat) attends the Morriston practice and they are so friendly, helpful and informative.
Thank you Dalleen for your kind words, hope Teddy is doing well.
Fantastic experience: I would like to bring to your attention the fantastic vet who has been caring for Tillie, Chiara. She has seen Tillie several times over the past few months and has been absolutely wonderful. Her professionalism, knowledge, and genuinely caring and loving nature are truly exceptional. She always takes the time to explain things clearly and treats both pets and owners with such compassion and respect. When Tillie was referred to Bristol Vets, we even received a follow-up phone call from Chiara to check how Tillie was getting on, which meant so much to us. That level of care and dedication truly goes above and beyond. Tillie absolutely loves her too, which says everything about the trust and comfort Chiara gives to the animals she treats. She is a real credit to your veterinary practice, and I felt it was important to let you know how grateful we are for the care she has provided.
Thank you Louise, I will feedback your lovely comments to Chiara.

Thank you Jill for your kind words
Fantastic experience: This was my first visit to St James vets at Penllergaer , from first contact via telephone I was impressed with the professionalism and politeness of the staff. I received an appointment immediately without any drama, upon arrival at the practice I was met by a clean spacious waiting area well set out to help any stressed animals. The receptionist were very polite and informative. I was called to see the vet at exactly my appointed time, the vet was also very polite and professional reassuring my puppy during examination and when he had his injections during which he did not winge at all. Very pleased with my experience as I hope was Teddi Thank you
Thank you Jonathon for your kind review. I hope Teddi is settling in well.
Fantastic experience: St James vets is second to none. Every vet I’ve interacted with has been professional yet friendly. My dog had anxiety/aggression linked to vet experiences elsewhere and they’ve been amazing with him, which has completely changed his behaviour. They even suggested he visit once a week and gave a walk around to desensitise him and this helped hugely. Ten years on and he accepts going for regular injections and tolerates the situation well. I can’t thank you enough for your help with Dougie over the years and ongoing.
Thank you for your kind review. I'm glad Dougie is doing well. Please feel free to still pop in whenever you are passing.
Fantastic experience: Great vets, have used for years, always friendly.

Fantastic experience: St James Veterinary Group are a long standing service. They have various Surgeries making it easy to find one that suits. Also they have their own facilities to keep animals in their hospital unit, say following an operation. They also offer a monthly plan that covers things like annual vaccinations and health checks, which covers a lot of services not covered by animal insurances and spreads the cost of these over the year. Very friendly staff and have every faith in their abilities to look after my two dogs.

Fantastic experience: The best vets I've ever been to. If I could give a thousand stars I would.
