Our practice is conveniently located inside Pets at Home on the busy Goldstone Retail Park, giving our team great exposure to a wide variety of clients and cases. We’re just a short distance from Brighton’s vibrant seafront and directly opposite Hove Park, offering the perfect balance between work and leisure. With direct train links to central London nearby, you’ll enjoy easy access to both city life and the coast.

We see a real mix of clients and the majority of our clients are insured allowing cases to be worked up to a high standard. The bright, spacious, air‑conditioned surgery is purpose built to industry‑leading standards and has state of the art equipment.

By joining us you will be part of our supportive team of 2 Vets, 3 nurses and 4 receptionists. The whole team is dedicated to providing a superb standard of client and animal care.
