My 11 year old Patterdale cross, Speedy, saw Steve at the Stem Cell Vet in October. Although still very energetic, Speedy had a bad limp and an enlarged foot. Our own vet had previously diagnosed osteoarthritis and septic arthritis.They had suggested Librella as the next step in his treatment which I was not keen on. After a thorough consultation, examination and X-rays, Steve suspected that Speedy had immune mediated polyarthritis rather than osteoarthritis. While Speedy was still under anaesthetic, Steve rang me to say that stem cell therapy was not appropriate for the immune condition. He recommended continuing with the platelet rich plasma injections and taking joint fluid samples to test conclusively for the IMPA. We collected Speedy late evening and spent a very comfortable night at the @The Chapel hotel, organised by and directly opposite the vet practice. When the fluid tests came back they confirmed IMPA. Steve then prescribed a 2 week immune suppressant dose of steroids to arrest the progress of the arthritis along with a change to Speedy's anti inflammatories. Speedy was much improved quite quickly and we then gradually reduced the steroids to a low daily maintenance dose together with gabapentin, paracetamol and the 3 BBounce supplements. So far (4 months) Speedy has continued to do well. He is limping much less and continues to be his happy, bonkers self. The aftercare from Steve and the practice has been excellent. As I live 170 miles away, this has all been by telephone. I have been very impressed by the service provided.

Stem Cell vets have been amazing. We had a young dog in constant pain and fed up. He’s now drug free and significantly less reactive, loving life. His limp has gone and is much happier - and so are we! We couldn’t be more grateful and all the staff have been super helpful. It’s taken a while from initial consultation to get here but well worth it for however long it lasts. Thank you, you given Bailey his life back.

Our 4 year old was diagnosed with bilateral hip dysplasia and osteoarthritis. We opted to try stem cell treatment to help with pain management. It’s only been 3 months since our stem cell treatment and the difference that it has made/is making is amazing. Roxy is happier, her movement is improving (it’s never going to be perfect), she isn’t as tense. The biggest difference I have seen is with her behaviour. She is less reactive and she is much more playful. She also settles easier at home in the evenings. The team at Stemcell vet are fabulous and made the process as stress free as possible for us. Vet visits are stressful for Roxy and she struggles with people in small spaces. Our appointments were set up to allow us to have the time and space and the team listened to what we needed and showed nothing but care and compassion. I can highly recommend Stemcell therapy and the team at Stemcell vet and I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.

My boy was only 5years 5 months old when diagnosed with hip dysphasia and double front knee osteoarthritis. He was a very active border collie. We used to be out in the early mornings 2hours walks and running, loved I mean loved chasing a ball, everything was ball, playing with his best friend since he was 6 months. In November 2023 he was keep getting lame, got told to rest only led walk, he kept dropping as he walked. Was definitely in pain. Went back and forth to the vet. Got X-ray on all four limbs in February 2024 as he was losing muscle in his back leg and stiffing up. Diagnosis came back as hip dysphasia and double front knee osteoarthritis which was devastating for a younger dog. The vet put him on oral pain killers but didnot work for long and also not good for the stomach. Put him on pain injections for every month but they won't last the month. So upsetting knowing he was still in pain and also fed up not understanding that couldn't walk for long or get excited. Then came he'll need a double hip operation and double knee. His poor legs won't last, his front legs won't carry his back, his back legs won't carry his front while waiting for recovery after ops. Then I strolled the internet and came along StemCell vet. Did research, wrote a email on there site and got a phone call the next day with a lovely friendly calming lady called Megan. My vet sent Keegan's history to see if he was compatible for treatment. Within 4 days we are going from Hertfordshire to Somerset Bruton for the day too check Keegan out, have a very easy small surgery to get his own stem cell to grow, Tim the surgeon and the nurse's looked after him throughout from start to finish and there after. The first procedure is a full day appointment. Waited 4-5 weeks for the cells to grow call back massive excitement, ready to go back. Have a checkup and then ready for the procedure injections into all four legs about 4 hours later ready to go home walking little groggy, little sore but walking. This started in June 2024 first procedure, the main procedure in July. Slowly slowly gentle walks and medication which is apart of the treatment. His enthusiasm is a lot happier, stiffness in the legs are starting to ease. Building muscle back in back legs no more pain killers for five weeks it's December 2024 now and seeing huge improvement from 10 mins walk a day, not seeing his friends and stayed on lead. Walking up and down steep hills, walking in the woods without lead, chasing the odd fox and best of all staying with his pal. He won't be able to chase a ball, but he's happy I'm happy he's out and about. StemCell team are with him all the way they have been fantastic, still in touch checking up, I send videos of him every month. I'm glad I made that first call the best decision for Keegan, best team lovely friendly warm. Go with your gut, this is the best for Keegan, he's not back to normal but 100% better than he was this time last year. Something my vet didn't suggest only four massive ops. Stem cell Bruton in Somerset and team are the best. Stem cell is the way for Arthritic pets (animals)but definitely get it done by the best and the team that deal with it everyday. Thank you Tim and the whole team a Bruton Somerset
