Phoebe is wonderful! Lots of my friends use her, and I've never heard anything negative, just lots and lots of positive feedback When she switched practices, lots of us followed her!

Another vote for Phoebe, she always goes that extra mile above and beyond the call of duty. She has also been nominated for PetPlan Vet of the Year, to which anyone who also rates her highly can add to the nominations, by going to the website and following the intructions as to how to nominate someone. I'm sure there are plenty of people who are not even aware of the fact that Phoebe has been put forward for this very prestigious award and who would also maybe like to nominate her themselves. It would be lovely for her to get the recognition that she so richly deserves, in return for all the excellent service she has given to all her clients. I would like to wish her good luck for this award and am keeping everything crossed.

Pheobe all the way!!
My mums big hunter had severe Malonomas that was at the back end and also in his throat so he explained that there was a 90% chance they was right the way through him as well but said he wasn't ready to go to sleep yet, but she explained he would get worse... 3 weeks later we called her back out and she agreed that it was time as he had dropped Over 200kg in the 3 weeks and he had just given up and after having Pheobe as a vet she knew this horse as much as we did we knew she wouldn't mess around with us... She dealt with us very hysterical owners amazingly and never left us afterwards until we was ready...
A number of weeks later my D went lame, he was only ever so slightly lame Inhand but was dog lame to be ridden... Leaving is worried that it was his back. Again phoned Pheobe who came straight out and immediately said it was his left fetlock joint and rushed him to there practice for X-rays and nerve blocks, diagnosed him the same day and he was in leahurst on the operating table 1 weeks later... Leahurst told us he will never jump again but he would also be off work for a year before I coule even walk him... But Pheobe put her heart and soul into showing me rehabilitation for him as well as a mixture of supplements for him and gradually together with Pheobe 7 months on he is back in full schooling work!
She saved my horses life by referring him so quick and helping him after his surgery, she is still very consistent in coming for check ups and at the drop of a hat she will be here for any horses or abit of advice over the phone Nothing is too much trouble for her.
Gilliver vets are also a fabulous team. It's not about the money with this vet and team. It's about the welfare of the animal
