Dear Hammond Vets Clients,
As you will be aware the veterinary field has undergone much change in the last decade with
the rise of corporates and a decline in vets. Sadly, I am writing to you all to inform you that
the practice will be closing as of the 1st Sept. We are no longer able to maintain our position
within the industry as a mixed veterinary practice. I hope that you will understand that this
decision has not been taken lightly or without consideration and exhaustion of all other
viable options.
I wanted to thank all of you for your support and loyalty to the practice. It has been our
pleasure to be your veterinary practice and provide a team that you could rely on. We have
always done this in good faith to help serve your veterinary needs to the best of our ability as
an independent small business.
Please find below an alphabetical list of practices and their area of practice that you may
wish to enquire to register at. We will be happy to provide any clinical information at your
request to your new practice of choice. I wish you all the very best for the future.
Best Wishes,
Dr Lauran Hammond
