Wood Veterinary Group

We are a trusted and accredited animal hospital based in Gloucester providing an exceptional service for all kinds of pets and farm animals

We offer an excellent customer service through a team of highly skilled and experienced veterinary surgeons, nurses, receptionists and laboratory technicians who give a warm compassionate welcome to all animals in need of our help

We would like to keep you informed about our upcoming plans for the refurbishment of our hospital.  As we are sure you will have seen, for some time there have been portacabins assembled outside the building and our waiting area has been adapted to prepare for the upcoming works, which we now expect to commence from the end of March.

The refurbishment of the building is long overdue- we haven’t done major works inside the building since it was first built, over 20 years ago. It will allow us to expand the services we can offer, to include more consulting rooms, more theatre space, new kennels and cattery and the fantastic new addition of a CT scanner for performing advanced imaging.

This is a very exciting journey for us as a practice and we hope that it will prove to be exciting for you, our valued clients, too. We invite you to keep in touch with this journey via our Facebook page where we will be posting updates, pictures and videos as we progress through the works. It is something which we very much wish to share with you and we hope that you will enjoy the progress, the transformation and the end result!

There will, inevitably, be a certain amount of disruption during the works. Currently, the estimated turnaround time is expected to be approximately 9 months – which should hopefully mean we are completed by Christmas 2024. During the works there will be some periods where there will be increased noise, leading to some limitations in the amount of space we will be able to work from. There will also be a short period of time where routine appointments will be suspended during the daytime and we are likely to offer appointments in the evenings instead.

This particularly disruptive time is expected to last for approximately 1 week. Please rest assured that our ability to cater to Emergencies will remain unchanged, albeit that the way in which we do so may look slightly different. Please bear with us if we need to ask to examine your pet in an area in which you, as their owner and a member of the public, can’t be present. We will endeavour to ensure the minimal disruption to you and your pets but we may need to change the way in which we work to a degree.  We may also ask you to attend appointments at our Longlevens branch rather than at Quedgeley.

We are here to discuss any queries or concerns you may have. We can be contacted in all of the usual ways – via telephone on 01452 543990, via e-mail to smallanimal@woodvet.co.uk, or in person at your appointment.

Thank you in advance for your patience during this time and we look forward to being able to welcome you through the doors of our new updated clinic in due course! In the meantime, as above, please keep up to date with our Facebook page for exciting progress reports. We really hope that you feel able to get on board with our journey and our excitement and we welcome comments and shares along the way!

Best Regards
