Willow can be hard work and uncooperative but she always manages to get the treatment she needs. Everyone is patient with her and I never feel rushed. 🙂

This is everything a Vet practice should be. The reception staff, particularly Sandra, are friendly, efficient and welcoming to both you and your pet. Every Vet we have seen both here and at their emergency vets in Bury has been knowledgeable, highly skilled and has demonstrated superb practical clinical skills. We were seen by Tony today who is really good with our dog who is a bit nervous when visiting the vet and always gives us excellent care.The veterinary nurse, Nicky has also treated one of our dogs and again delivered it with skill and caring. I’m always happy with the treatment and advice I receive from the entire team. I have and will continue to recommend them.

We recently registered our puppy, Iris, with Armac vets following a recommendation from our friend. Our first visit for vaccinations etc was a lovely, heartwarming experience. We were welcomed by friendly, warm staff who made a big fuss of Iris which put her at ease immediately. They were really helpful, answering any questions we had. The vet too, was friendly and welcoming- Iris took to him straight away and was calm throughout her first vet experience! He offered us lots of helpful advice and took the time to make a fuss of Iris whilst answering any more questions we had. We didn’t feel rushed through at all. Having been registered at other vets with our cats, I would definitely recommend Armac to other local pet owners.
