Dr Carole is our trusted home vet, so it was an automatic decision to attend the Ulysses vet Clinic where Dr Carole is based when our beloved elderly dog had to have an operation on his ear. Surprise, surprise: not only is the clinic in an easy-to-find location with adequate parking, but the Ulysses team are truly tops, showing genuine love, care and understanding to their patients and their human companions. After our elderly dog's operation, we were explained the medical condition and aftercare treatment in a way I understood. To top it off, the vets wisely decided that my boy didn't need the unnecessary vaccination he'd been given previously, and they explained why. This proved, without a doubt, that for the first time in years and years, I'd found a Vet Clinic that was in for the health of their patients, not for the money. Then I received the bill. It was about half the price I expected to pay. And my dog's recovery after surgery? Fantastic, absolutely fabulous. Thank you, Ulysses Vet Clinic. You are much appreciated.

Response from the owner: Thank you for such a lovely review Magda, we're so glad to hear Leroy is recovering well!

Ulysses is not just a vet clinic.It’s a caring and highly professional experience. My little dog was the most happy and confident after having his operation that I’ve seen him as a patient before.

Response from the owner: Thank you for your kind words Virginia, big cuddles to Sooty!

We can’t thank Dr. Yuka and the wonderful team at Ulysses Vet Clinic enough for the exceptional care they provided to our Cocker Spaniel, Louis, during his recent cancer treatment. From the very first visit, they all showed such compassion, professionalism, and genuine love for him. Every step was explained clearly, and they went above and beyond to accomodate both Louis and us to feel supported throughout his journey.Their dedication and warmth made an incredibly difficult time so much easier to face. Thanks to their attentive care, Louis received the best possible treatment and comfort.We couldn't recommend Ulysses Vet Clinic more highly – lead by Dr. Demian Bullock & all the team who are truly outstanding.Regards & ThanksJoe & Isabella

Response from the owner: Thank you for such a kind review Joe & Isabella :) It's always a pleasure looking after Louis, we hope he continues to get stronger & stay in good health! <3

Absolutely Outstanding Care – Couldn’t Recommend Ulysses Vet Clinic More Highly!We’ve been clients of Ulysses Vet Clinic at both their Stratford and Whitfield locations, and the care we’ve received from Demian and his team has been nothing short of exceptional. Their professionalism, compassion, and genuine love for animals shine through in everything they do.Over the years, they’ve looked after our animals through every stage of life – from desexing and vaccinations, to treating our million-mile-an-hour Border Collie’s broken front leg, to saving our beloved Rotti x after a sudden and serious case of HGE. They’ve also provided wonderful aged care for our Shepherd x in his twilight years, and they keep a close eye on the health of the baby of the pack, the world’s smallest Kelpie with the world’s biggest attitude!They are always so welcoming – even when I walk in with four hounds in tow, who absolutely adore them! The team’s warmth, patience, and expertise create a real sense of trust and ease.If you’re after a vet clinic with heart, skill, and a truly personal touch, Ulysses is second to none. We wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Response from the owner: Thank you so much for your incredibly kind and thoughtful words — your review truly means the world to us.Caring for your beautiful crew over the years has been an absolute honour. Each one of them has their own special spark, and it’s been a joy (and sometimes a bit of a whirlwind!) to support them through all of life’s stages — from puppy zoomies and broken bones to serious emergencies and gentle senior care. We feel so lucky to have shared in those moments with you.Your trust, loyalty, and warmth as clients never go unnoticed. It’s families like yours that remind us why we do what we do every day. We’re grateful for the laughter, the cuddles, the chaos, and everything in between.Thank you again for such a heartfelt review. Give our love to the whole pack — we can’t wait to see you all again soon (and we’ll be ready with treats and ear scratches!).With gratitude,Demian and the Ulysses Vet Clinic team 🐾❤️
