At Molly & Max, we want you and your pet to want to come to the vet, because you like us! We aim to make coming to see us fun yet relaxing. We have treats for those who want them and space, tranquility and gentle handling for our more nervous patients.
Molly & Max was named for two of the most popular pet names in the UK. Our patients are central to what we do, and we thought it appropriate that our name reflected that. We hope you like it as much as we do.
Our people are pretty fun to be around too. We are all resolute animal lovers, from the littlest hamster to the largest Great Dane. We adore playing with the puppies and kittens, yet have a huge respect for the wisdom and dignity of their older counterparts.
Molly & Max is committed to providing a stimulating work place for our staff so that they may return their passion for their vocation. They will provide your pet with the best medical and surgical care, and you with the finest service. Please come and meet us!
