I think I'm being ripped off by my vet and investigation shows that they belong to a huge group of vets ( over 900 practices ). I'm currently with Acorn vets ( they're shit by the way ) and thought I'd move to the New Priory Vets. Checking them out - oh - same group ( not that Acorn mention that when they refer you there for OOH treatment ! ). Thought I'd try Southdown - surprise, part of the massive CVS group. All I want is a truly independent vet that isn't going to rip me off. Can anyone recommend one ?
