Why Choose Acorn Veterinary Centre?

We aren’t the only vets in the Wirral – so why choose us? Find out how we aim to be the best vet for you and your pet.

We understand that choosing a vets can be hard – your pet is a part of your family and you want the very best for them. At the end of the day as Vets, Nurses, and Receptionists we all love pets and want to provide them with excellent health care. So when all vets are promising the same, how do you pick the right vet for you?

At Acorn Vets we believe it’s the little things that really can make a big difference. We aim to make every pet’s experience at the vets a pleasant one and it’s with this in mind we have adopted our four key principles; Care, Tailored, Experience and Community.

At Acorn we understand that your pet is part of your family. For this reason, our most important aim is to give your pet the very best care we can. We also aim to extend our care to you – the client. Visiting the vet can be nerve wrecking for you too, which is why our team will always be on hand to guide you through.

One thing that the team enjoy most about the job, is the variety. Every day, every client and every pet are different and it’s with this in mind that we tailor our service to each and every one of you.

We know from over 30 years experience, that you want to come to a friendly and caring vet practice. We aim to make this our primary goal, however, understand how important it is to back this up with the highest standards in veterinary care. Our staff regularly keep up to date with the latest products, techniques and knowledge.

Being part of the community in the Wirral for over 30 years means a lot to us at Acorn Veterinary Centre. We know that you and your pets are at the heart of our practice. It is, for this reason, we have invested in our new surgery at Acacia Grove and look forward to being part of the community for many years to come.

    In the community

We love to get involved – being a local community vet is central to our ethos. Maybe that’s why we have been at the heart of the community in Frankby for over 30 years. We regularly get involved in all pet related aspects in the local community, from local small dogs shows, to school visits, career fairs and raising money for local charities.

Dog Shows

As part of our continued commitment to charitable causes, we run a Dogshow Roadshow. The Roadshow is available, free of charge, for local charities, community groups, schools and associations, and is a great way of raising funds.

We will:

  • Provide and set up a booking-in tent, complete with table and chairs
  • Provide and set up a dog show ring
  • Provide and set up a public address system – no electricity needed
  • Produce rosettes for each class, branded with your organisation’s logo and our logo
  • Give you goody bags for each class winner
  • Produce flyers for your event
  • Provide publicity in our magazine, newsletter, websites and social media pages.

We are limited to 20 roadshows per year on a first come, first served basis and subject to our availability.

School/Nursery Visits

Our school and nursery visits are fun filled events and great for getting children interested in all things pet related. We can tailor our visits to your requirements or arrange interactive activities where we can get the children to find the microchip on our toy dog, or bandage his leg. We can show them ‘interesting’ things in jars – if they’re not squeamish and let them look at x-rays (you wouldn’t believe what dogs swallow), and even dress up as a vet.

We have worksheets for various abilities and ages and every child gets a sticker. Teachers will find that they are able to do a lot of follow up work and creative play following a visit from a vet. If you want to set up a ‘play’ vet clinic in the school or nursery following our visit we usually have some posters and veterinary materials to hand to help it look more realistic.

Careers Fairs

A career in the veterinary industry can be an extremely rewarding, but demanding role. Our presence at School/College careers fairs can be a great way to educate those interested in the veterinary care all about the highs and the lows. We can talk to students about the various job roles at a veterinary practice, from Kennel Nurse right through to Vet, the work entailed, likely pay, qualifications and training needed.
