Pet Health Plan - Become a VIP!
Why not spread the cost of your pet's routine care ie vaccinations, worming and flea treatments by signing up to our pet health plan and pay in monthly D/D instalments. As a member of our VIP pet health plan you will receive a 10% discount on all other treatments such as neutering, reception items and diets. On top of this each registered pet will have a full health check every 6 months. Download the files above for further details.
Home visits for pets:
We encourage our pet owners to bring their animals to the surgery where trained staff and modern diagnostic equipment are readily available. However, in certain circumstances the vets are willing to make home visits, but it is often difficult to give a precise time and there will be an additional charge for such visits. We also have an ambulance service when required.
Fees
We accept most major credit and debit cards, cash and cheques (with bank card).
All private veterinary practices are funded by the fees you pay. We try to keep our fees as affordable as possible. However, in order to do this we ask that payment be made at the time of treatment. We are always pleased to provide a detailed estimate before undertaking any treatment.
Where finance is a problem, clients are requested to discuss this with the veterinary surgeon before treatment commences. Some clients on benefits may be eligible for PDSA support, but this must be applied for in advance by registering under the PDSA Pet Aid Scheme. Please ask at reception for details and an application form.
Pet Insurance
We recommend pet insurance cover for sickness, injury and third party liability, but are unable to recommend specific companies due a change in the law. Specialist investigations such as MRI and CT scans, or orthopaedic treatments or just lengthy investigations can be very expensive, but are made possible by pet insurance, so you can do what is best for your pet.
When choosing a company – pick up leaflets, check the web but be wary of the cheapest policies. Look for “life time” rather than “annual” policies, don’t change companies and start as young as possible to avoid exclusions to the policy.

MEDICINES + PRESCRIPTIONS
We may be able to issue repeat prescriptions for some ongoing conditions as long as we have seen your animal within 6 months. Please ring Deane Vets on 01823 333722 before 3pm to request any repeat prescriptions as a vet will have to check them before collection. A written prescription may be available on request. There is a charge for this service.
FARM ANIMALS + HORSES
We have a depth of experience in treating a range of large animals from routine farm work through to specialist equine stud work. We have a full range of farm and equine medicines and are happy to supply them to existing clients in accordance with current legislation. For our farm clients we can set up a SPECIAL MEDICINES discount account. Just ask one of our vets for details.
