We are an RCVS accredited small animal practice with three branches: Poynton (main branch), Woodley and Cheadle Hulme. Each site is furnished to a high specification so that our high standards of care are uniform across all three sites.

Here at Hunt's Vets we have a fantastic working environment which is credit to our wonderful, friendly team. We all really enjoy our working days together and we are never short of laughs. We have an experienced team which means we can offer some fantastic support! Our current team is made up of 7 vets, 5 RVN's, Two Receptionists, a VCA, a Practice Manager and 3 support staff.
