Bridge Street Veterinary Practice

Bridge Street Veterinary Practice is a small-animal clinic that treats cats, dogs and several small pets (rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets and hamsters). The website lists a broad “general practice” set-up—surgery, dentistry, diagnostics, vaccinations and nurse clinics—and it also states the practice offers emergency vet services. It’s a Cat Friendly Clinic and is listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. In recent reviews, owners repeatedly mention clear communication and reassurance during stressful visits, plus follow-up phone calls after a cat’s visits, and being fitted in at short notice for an urgent appointment.
