Gower Veterinary Surgery – Vets in Swansea

Suggest the vet to change the topical cream for my cat as she is suffering from sever feline acne for quite some time. She didn't look at antibiotic cream , had no idea . And suggested things to do which everybody knows. Wont be going there . Total waste of money and time .

Please change people who sit on reception and accept calls. I called them and they did not have a slot to book an appointment for me today (said the latest was 3:45, I needed around 6), my partner called 30 minutes later and they gladly booked him at 6. And after booking him they called after 40 minutes and left a voicemail that they have to reschedule the appointment. 4 hours of notice. So unprofessional. Maybe the vets there are good (we did not get a change to try), but receptionists are utterly terrible.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Forever Grateful for Gower Vets I genuinely can’t thank Gower Vets enough for what they’ve done for my dog, Luna. After weeks of suffering and getting nowhere with my previous vets, I reached a breaking point. Luna was lifeless, in obvious pain, and I felt completely let down. Trusting my gut, I contacted Gower Vets—last minute—and they didn’t hesitate to take us in. From the moment we arrived, everything changed. They listened, they took her condition seriously, and they acted with care and urgency. Luna was started on proper treatment immediately—steroids, antibiotics, medicated baths, ear drops—everything she had needed for weeks but wasn’t given. Within 24 hours, I saw a completely different dog. She was finally comfortable. Finally getting relief. And for the first time in weeks, I didn’t have to sit helplessly watching her suffer. Gower Vets gave Luna her life back—and gave me hope again. I’ll never forget their kindness and the way they truly cared. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.

Top marks for this practice. We're on holiday in the area and one of my dogs injured himself. We got an appointment, the dog was thoroughly checked over and had meds prescribed, all within two hours. I can't praise the vets enough.

I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible care and compassion shown by Gower Vet during our recent loss. When our beloved dog simba was nearing the end of their journey, the staff at Gower Vet provided a level of comfort and understanding that was truly exceptional. From the initial consultation to the final moments, the entire team was empathetic and supportive. They took the time to listen to our concerns, answer questions, and offer guidance throughout the difficult process. Their genuine care made a profound difference during what was a heart-wrenching experience for myself and partner. I wholeheartedly recommend Gower Vet to anyone in need of compassionate and professional veterinary care. Their dedication to both animals and their owners is truly of a caring one. Thank you Katie and team🙏🐕
