Welcome to Pet Doctors Burwell. We are a small and very friendly clinic aiming to offer the highest level of veterinary care to the local community. Unlike most veterinary clinics our standard consultation length is 20 minutes allowing us to spend plenty of time with each patient and their owners. 

 All consultations are by appointment only, but feel free to pop in at anytime for a chat or for your pet to meet us. Clients are welcome to use our dog and cat weighing scales at any time.

 We also offer a full range of nursing clinics - click on the link 'find out more about our clinic' below for more information!

 Do you know about our 'Healthy Pets Club'? You pay a monthly direct debit which covers your pets yearly vaccination and parasite control at a discounted price, along with discounts on all purchases and services, a free 6 monthly health check, & much more.... Please call for more information and prices or visit 'http://www.thehealthypetclub.co.uk'

  Alastair qualified from Bristol University in 2005, and after working in a mixed practice for two years now focuses entirely on small animals. He joined the team at Burwell in 2011, and since starting has introduced longer consultation periods, allowing more time to be spent with each patient and owner.

In his spare time he enjoys live music, countryside walks, camping, wild swimming, and has an obsession with waterfalls. He has black labrador called Abby and rescue cat called Quincy. ‘As a veterinary surgeon I strive to offer the highest level of care to each and every patient. I pride myself in being conscientious, compassionate and treating all patients and owners with the utmost of respect. Working as part of such a dedicated and friendly team, and being able to spend enough time with each patient and owner provides me with a great deal of job satisfaction.’
