Our team at Manchester Vet Centre all have one thing in common – we entered into the veterinary profession because we care about animals. To show you that we care, our aim is to give you and your pet the very best experience when you visit us, whether it be for a routine vaccination or a more serious course of treatment.

Just like you, we are pet owners, so we understand how important your pet is. We also understand how upsetting it can be if your pet becomes unwell or injured. At Manchester Vet Centre we pride ourselves on our empathetic approach to every pet and owner that comes through the door.

We strongly believe that communication is vital to maintain a good relationship with you – our client. Our aim is to ensure you understand every aspect of care relating to your pet. We cover it all, from what’s involved in vaccinations, costs of procedures and keeping you informed of blood test results as soon as they come in.

Trusting us to look after you pet is an honour. We want to repay that trust by ensuring we have the knowledge and experience to give your pets the very best care. Some of our staff have been practicing veterinary care for over 40 years and regularly attend advanced training sessions, to be the best they can for your pet.

    In the community

We love to get involved – being a local community vet is central to our ethos. We regularly get involved in all pet related aspects in the local community, from local small dogs shows, to school visits, career fairs and raising money for local charities.

Dog Shows

As part of our continued commitment to charitable causes, we run a Dogshow Roadshow. The Roadshow is available, free of charge, for local charities, community groups, schools and associations, and is a great way of raising funds. 

We will:

  • Provide and set up a booking-in tent, complete with table and chairs
  • Provide and set up a dog show ring
  • Provide and set up a public address system – no electricity needed
  • Produce rosettes for each class, branded with your organisation’s logo and our logo
  • Give you goody bags for each class winner
  • Produce flyers for your event
  • Provide publicity in our magazine, newsletter, websites and social media pages.

We are limited to 20 roadshows per year on a first come, first served basis and subject to our availability. 

School/Nursery Visits

Our school and nursery visits are fun-filled events and great for getting children interested in all things pet related. We can tailor our visits to your requirements or arrange interactive activities where we can get the children to find the microchip on our toy dog or bandage a leg. We can show them ‘interesting’ things in jars (if they’re not squeamish), let them look at x-rays (you wouldn’t believe what dogs swallow) and even dress up as a vet.

We have worksheets for various abilities and ages and every child gets a sticker. Teachers will find that they are able to do a lot of follow up work and creative play following a visit from a vet. If you want to set up a ‘play’ vet clinic in the school or nursery following our visit we usually have some posters and veterinary materials to hand to help it look more realistic.

Careers Fairs

A career in the veterinary industry can be an extremely rewarding, but demanding role. Our presence at School/College careers fairs can be a great way to educate those interested in the veterinary care all about the highs and the lows. We can talk to students about the various job roles at a veterinary practice, from Kennel Nurse right through to Vet, the work entailed, likely pay, qualifications and training needed.
