Clinic Overview

Pike Moor Veterinary Surgeons is described on its website as an independent small-animal practice with 30+ years’ experience. The practice treats a range of pets (“furry, feathery and scaly”) and advertises advanced diagnostics and surgical procedures, alongside routine care like check-ups and vaccinations. For urgent questions, the website says it offers 24/7 digital vet support via the VidiVet app for guidance on next steps.

From the latest reviews available to us, owners most often describe day-to-day experiences such as a welcoming reception, vets who “do what’s best”, and practical handling techniques (for example, using Kong cheese to distract a new puppy during vaccination). A “VIP system” that “saves you money” is also mentioned by a reviewer, but no prices or inclusions are given.
