EXCELLENTTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Max came to live with me when he was 8 years old and shortly after he developed a limp. I took him to Kelperlands veterinary practice and he was diagnosed with a torn cruciate ligament. Within a week or two Max was operated on and we haven’t looked back since. Simon explained the whole process answered all my questions and waylaid all my fears. Within 3 months Max was walking limp free. I cannot thank the practice enough for the care they gave Max whilst he was with them, from receptionist, veterinary nurses and of course Simon for his skill in preforming the operation.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Simon and the whole team have been excellent. We have a very small Pomeranian who suffered a partial tear of their cruciate ligament. Simon was amazing at going through the different surgical options and coming up with a solution that fitted our dog (too small for standard surgery). The surgery and aftercare were excellent and she has made a wonderful recovery. The price was also low compared to what we were expecting from looking at the specialist centre care price lists we found. I'd highly recommend them to anyone.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Having witnessed the surgical prowess and success of the repairs performed on my friends’ little dog when she suffered two separate cruciate ligament tears, I had no hesitation in taking my own dog to Kelperland to consult with Simon Ratcliffe, when she suffered the same injuries. As a retired vet myself, I am aware of the complexity of the surgery, but also of what makes very good client service and patient care. I saw excellent levels of both from Simon and the team members that I had the pleasure of interacting with. I consider the surgical work alongside the detailed post-operative support for both me and my dog, to be very good value for money in comparison with specialist secondary referral clinics, and have no hesitation in recommending Simon’s orthopaedic referral services.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Without doubt Simon and the rest of the Kelperland team are gold standard whenever it comes to animal welfare and ensuring peace of mind to the animal parents. I speak from experience where my gorgeous pointer had to have a nasty mass surgically removed from her neck – it needed a big incision to ensure a safe margin of tissue around it. Thankfully the op went well and Simon guided me through the post op period – we found the best way to examine her neck was for Simon to give her treats on his consultation table – this way she put her front legs on the table and stayed perfectly still to be examined! Not only was my dog at peace during this time, but so was I. Everything was clearly explained to me at every stage, so I knew every step of the way my dog was in the best and most capable hands for something very invasive and critically important to go through. I would recommend anyone to use Kelperland vets - they are without question the best at what they do from day to day to serious surgery. All the team are exceptional from reception to the vets and nurses. Thank you!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. During the summer, our cat Mabel limped into the house and was still struggling to walk the next morning. A visit to Kelperland confirmed that she had, somehow, torn the Achillies tendon in her hind leg. This presented a doubtful chance of recovery, and even the risk of further injury, unless it was treated surgically. The Kelperland team carefully explained the surgical options, and we were encouraged to ask questions and to take time to choose the next step. We choose the ‘tibio-calcaneal screw’ option which, under general anaesthetic, essentially fixed Mabel’s leg into a straight position that would encourage the tendon to heal. This option offered a high chance of recovery, and at a relatively affordable price compared to other surgical options. As with any other significant surgery, Mabels post-surgery recovery required an extended period of confinement along with regular check-ups at Kelperland which naturally included a further operation, again under anaesthetic, to remove the screw. Overall, we have been greatly impressed with the professionalism of the Kelperland team and most importantly, we are very pleased to say that the surgery itself appears to be a complete success. In the circumstances, we feel we chose a remarkably effective surgical option for Mabel, who is now fully mobile and back to displaying a wide range of play behaviours. Paul and Sarah ReevePosted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can't give Simon and Kelperland vet surgery a high enough recommendation. Simon performed cruciate ligament surgery on my 11 year old Labrador, Betsy, a year ago. Her recovery after the operation was amazing and Simon kept checking in on us regularly to make sure everything was going ok. The operation went so smoothly and he took really good care of her when she was extremely nervous going into the surgery. Highly recommend.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have entrusted Kelperlands with the care of all our pets for many years and they are truly exceptional. Their dedication was especially evident after our cat suffered a serious road accident, resulting in multiple breaks in his leg and additional traumas. Simon operated on him, and despite the complexity of the surgery, we are overjoyed to say our cat has now made a full recovery. We could not have been more delighted with the care he received. Simon even went the extra mile, offering out-of-hours support and providing video consultations to reduce unnecessary stress on our cat. The entire team consistently delivers an unparalleled level of care, compassion, and personal service that you simply would not receive at a larger practice. We will be forever grateful to Simon and the whole Kelperland team and have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending them.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Have been with Kelperland since the start! They are an excellent family run business which provides top care at reasonable prices. The staff are efficient, friendly and caring! Dr. Simon Ratcliffe operated on my Bulldog and was supportive all the way with excellent after care! If you are looking for a professional caring vet look no further! I highly highly recommend Kelperland veterinary centre in Fifield.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A fantastic family run independent vet practice.... Simon & the team are amazing. Simon recently operated on our Molly - her knee is working perfectly and she is back to running along the beach! Thank you Simon! Highly recommend.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My beautiful rescue dog was diagnosed with luxating patella in both knees. Not only was this heartbreaking as she's a very active young dog, the potential costs were daunting. Simon and his team at Kelperland couldn't have been more reassuring and helpful. As an independent vets, they're not beholden to shareholders or investors who seek a return - their interest is very much in an animal's health and wellbeing. Simon performed surgery on both of Kipo's knees (the operations were spaced, allowing for rehab on each) and the outcome has far surpassed expectations. Thanks to both the surgery and the after care support (which really is essential), Kipo is now 3 years post-surgery and absolutely thriving. She can outpace most dogs and her agility is unbelievable. Nobody can believe that she went through such major surgery. I will be forever grateful to Simon and his team for giving her the chance to live her best life.
