Can anyone recommend an English speaking vet in Marbella or east along the coast?

Thanks
Chris

We've got a fantastic vet in Benavista area, she's in Centro comercial Diana II, near the Diana Park hotel on the N340. She's very understanding, speaks good English & is unlike any other vet I've met. Her name is Lucia & her tel is 952887842. Open 10-1400 & 1700-2030 & sat 10-1300.

Hope this isn't too far from you as I can't recommend Lucia enough.

I can recommend a vet in Rincon de la Victoria. Dolores is Spanish but was in the UK for quite a time and speaks very good English.
Her surgery is next to the Post Office in Rincon.

We seem to get quite a lot of Spanish vets here in UK. Seems the money is so much better here, that they come over, stay for a few years, perfect their English, save lots of money, then go home and set up their own surgery. Can't blame them for that, makes a lot of sense. :D

Have lived here for over 20 years and I have had animals throughout this period and I must say that both my opinion and that of others who have been here for years is that Pointer in nueva andalucia is the best. Hes a dutch chap, very nice, you cant miss it if you take the exit of the n340 for the port you will find it on the first roundabout going up to nueva andalucia.

I use an excellent vet in La Campana, Nueva Andalucia. He Speaks enough English to let you know what is going on and is very reasonable. Going down the Hill in La Campana towards San Pedro he is about half way down on the right.
Oh Yes! another day in paradise!
