About Us

History

The founders of Pet Doctors Veterinary Clinics are David Hodges and Garret Turley who met and became fast friends whilst undergraduate students Cambridge University Veterinary School. After qualifying as veterinary surgeons in 1991 they worked together in a small animal practice in London.  It has been their dream to have their own clinic and in 1995 they set up practice together in West Sussex. They formed Pet Doctors Veterinary Clinics in 1998 and were joined by another friend, David Grant, in 2001.  Whilst Garret does much less veterinary practice than he used to, David Hodges is still a full-time veterinary surgeon at the Pet Doctors clinic in Rustington.  Between them they have three dogs, five cats and a rather large rabbit!

Our Staff

Our veterinary surgeons, veterinary nurses and support staff are all specially selected to work as a dedicated team to care for your pets. They also attend regular training sessions to update their skills and ensure that your pet receives the best care at all times. Our staff members are also a great source of information so if you have any concerns about your pet they will be happy to offer advice and give you peace of mind.

Facilities

As well as having highly trained people, all our veterinary clinics are equipped with top class diagnostic and therapeutic equipment to ensure we can offer you and your pet the best service.

We have monitors to make using anaesthetics as safe as possible and many of our veterinary clinics have in-house laboratories so that we can bring you important results as quickly as possible.

We do all this to give your pet the best possible care and make it as comfortable as we can at what can be a stressful time for all.

We regularly review and update our procedures to ensure we are bringing our patients the most effective, safe and modern veterinary treatments.

And there's more!
