A huge thank you to James Simcock and the entire team at Southpaws Mornington! Our beloved Dachshund, Georgi, underwent back surgery and was home within 2 days. The operation was a complete success! We’re thrilled with the exceptional service and highly recommend James. The regular updates, twice daily, were incredibly reassuring. Thank you again for your outstanding care!
Just want to say a huge thank you to all the team at Southpaws for their extraordinary care, knowledge and approach to treating our pup. Huge thanks to Dr James, so professional and capable and a thank you to Dr Alex too. We could not have asked for better care of our young German Shepherd.
Great experience with our very much-loved Lily recently having two tumours removed. The process was explained well, and she received excellent care all the way through. Even taking late night calls to ease an anxious family’s mind. Couldn’t have asked for a better outcome for Lily Pad. Thank you.
Thanks to all Doctors & Nurses that gave our Boy Lukas a better quality of life, soft palate surgery changed him dramatically. We can now go for long walks, even jogs, without any breathing issues. Once again, Lukas & we thank the team for their dedication. I highly recommend Southpaws.
We brought our beautiful labrador Belle down due to a cancer diagnosis. We drove four hours to come. We were so amazingly happy with the service both ourselves and Belle had. We come away with a much better outcome and continues care for Belle. Thank you so much to all the staff at SouthPaws.
The service & Care from south paws was above and beyond! They took such good care of my Rotti Zara who had TPLO surgery this week. They even took her favourite toy for her to stay with over night. I was updated every step of the way, response to all email questions was so quick and everything was so well explained. I am so thankful for this amazing place! Thank you for helping my baby and making the process stress free for a worried fur Mumma.
My dog Mac has just had his second TPLO surgery, this time at 13 years of age. The team at Southpaws are fantastic. The service, professionalism and genuine caring for the animals is second to none. Mac is recovering well so far and I’m very hopeful he will return to his happy, energetic self to see out his senior years. Thanks guys xx.
