About Us
Compassionate veterinary care for the pets of Henbury and Bristol
Our practice has been serving local pets and owners across North Bristol since 2000.
We’re proud to be part of the Henbury community, which is why we do our utmost to support our patients, clients and the wider area.
Our experienced team members aim to provide a personal service to every pet, through developing treatment plans tailored to their specific needs.
This commitment to care also extends beyond the practice, as we regularly sponsor local events, fundraise for charities, visit local schools, give talks about animal welfare to local Scout and Women’s Institute groups and look for ways to be more sustainable as a business.
We were founded by Norwegian vets Maria Lowe and Trude Mostue, who both featured on the BBC documentary series “Vets in Practice”.
After finding premises in Henbury and transforming the building into a veterinary practice with all the mod-cons, they set out to assemble a top-notch team, many of whom are still with us today.
Maria’s husband, Andrew, soon joined the fold as practice manager and partner. Trude later left to pursue a film career.
In the years since, we’ve further expanded our facilities and services to ensure that we’re offering the very best to our lovely clients, with a 2005 extension adding a new treatment area, a dental room, kennels and a cattery to the practice.
You and your pet can find everything at one convenient site, meaning you can see the same friendly team members every time and you won’t need to move your pet between different locations for surgeries or investigations.
We have in-house surgical, laboratory, diagnostic and hospitalisation facilities, separate wards for dogs, cats and smaller pets and handy off-road parking.
As a feline centre, our premises have a separate cat entrance and cat ward, and a dedicated cat waiting area and consulting rooms.
