I had a lovely visit to Fernhill Veterinary clinic where the nurse explained everything she was doing, offered advice, suggested alternative ways to help. I felt that the nurse and other staff very kind and so helpful. I Highly recommend this caring practice.

Our 16 year old Jack russell fell ill on holiday in the New Forest and everyone at this vets showed us nothing but kindness. They saw Scamp on a Saturday morning and gave him a thorough examination and helped us again on the Monday when we couldn't get antibiotics in to him. We can't praise them enough and highly recommend, they were so kind and showed real empathy and a love for our dog. Thanks again to the team at Fernhill

We needed to visit the out of hours vet service whilst on holiday in the new Forest. Our working Cocker spaniel had a deeply travelled grass seed in her ear, causing her a lot of pain. She was incredibly patient and kind with her. Thank you so much for treating her - one of the best experiences we have ever had with a vet.

I had to take my dog to this practice , while on holiday , she quite badly broke a tooth. We were made to feel so welcome and Janine was extremely helpful and explained everything unwell, also taking into account her underlying heath conditions . I felt in safe hands and I wished we lived nearer , we would be registered permanently here ! Thank you for your amazing ing care

Where do I start with this amazing practise. On the first day of our holiday one of our dogs injured his foot, we phoned around the different vets and from first call with Fernhill, we felt instantly like we were in the best hands. They did everything in their power to help us and our dog to get better and were very very fair on price also. We can not thank them enough for their dedication and care. Would recommend to everyone 100%.
