Anyone know of a vet in Nottingham that is experienced with rabbits? Have tried a few local 'run of the mill' vets - not impressed.

You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about.

I use Gamston Vets 4 Pets. They are good...ask for Rachel or Annie.
I also use Castle Vets in the city centre, but they are very expensive and recently I've had difficulty getting their main vets (Ewan and Brin) and have been fobbed off with stand-ins.

I lived in Nottingham for 8 years and always went to see John Oleshko at Ashfield House, Long Eaton. He was always very good with my bunny always took time and trouble to examine him properly. When Brian became very sick with sarcoma he spent time researching if there were any other things we could try to help him. I would certainly recommend him to others.

That vet sounds great, I'd give them a try if I were you.
Alternatively I did hear there is an excellent vet in Rainworth, which is out Mansfield way. However it was recommened by dog owners!
Dont be afraid to ask loads of questions when you call, just tell them you're neurotic, it usually gets a laugh. Unless they dont know what it means of course, in which case they just think I'm mad...which is quite accurate really.

I've never been myself (I'm in lincolnshire) but Honeybunnies always recommends Gamston too. I've heard good things about this vet.
Hi, I used Priory Vets in Beeston. They were amazing with my poorly rabbit that unfortunately had to be put down and offer a really good deal with the 'Healthy Pet Club' Can't say I am a fan of Vets4pets to be honest. I have a new beautiful rabbit and will be using them again.
