ON Easter Monday our two large dogs had a fight and, in separating them, our son suffered a badly bitten hand and went to A&E at Hereford County Hospital.

They were very busy, but he was seen within an hour and treated, and was told to return in two days to make sure no infection had set in. On his second visit he was seen as soon as he checked in, and was out in 15 minutes. We cannot praise them enough, and all free on the NHS. Our dogs cost us nearly £200 at the vets.
