Small clinic, big hearts
Dr Jane A. Doe opened Good Boy in 2014 in a converted bakery on Larkhill Road, with one consulting room, one nurse and a waiting room full of borrowed chairs.
We're still independent and still in the bakery, just with more rooms. That means no targets from head office, and appointments long enough to do things properly.
What we believe
Time first
Appointments start at 20 minutes and run longer when they need to. We never rush a nervous animal.
Plain words
We explain what we're doing and why, give you written estimates, and never use jargon to end a conversation.
Every species
A rabbit isn't a small dog. We train, equip and handle each species the way it needs.
Kind, always
To pets, to owners, and to each other. That includes being honest when it's hard.
