As others have already stated, this group is out to make money. Abbey House Vets in Morley, Leeds are in this group and are just awful. And Linnaeus Group's parent company is Mars Petcare so now you know why they overcharge at every opportunity. Try contacting customer services at Mars Petcare or probably best you don't waste your time; beyond useless.Given a quote of a maximum price of £415 for the procedure but not given any warnings of possible side effects or health problems. The final bill was over £580 without any consultation at all.Took them to the small claims court to find all vets stick together and protect themselves like solicitors and doctors. They employ a vet to deal with claims against them and they bully their way at every stage. They even sent a barrister for the court case at £700 per hour to defend them in a Small Claims Court and who had already had a nice little chat with the county court judge before we even arrived at the court (court staff sat with us and told us what had been happening). We lost the part of the case concerning the failure to warn us of dangers from the procedure (as expected) even though the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons stated they were common, but the judge ruled the invoice total must not exceed the quoted £415. Later we received a letter from the obnoxious manager stating they did not want us as customers and we were removed from their customer base. This is the only part we agree with and have now found the best vets in the area. However, Linnaeus continue to send us emails as we are, apparently, 'valued members of our Linnaeus practice community.' You could not make it up.
