The practice
We bought the old tannery because the rooms were already quiet. Hart & Willow is not a group, not a franchise, and not open at 11 p.m. Out-of-hours is referred to a dedicated service — we tell you that before you need it.


Team
This is a fictional practice. We will not dress real humans up as our vets. Each clinician is paired with the sort of animal they spend the day thinking about.
