Welcome to Onswitch

Established in 2001, our fundamental purpose has always remained the same – to achieve the best patient outcomes by working with the people who care for them.

Understanding the needs of the people who care for your patients (and tailoring your service provision around them) is good for everyone – patient, client, team and business. In veterinary practice the client is just as much a vital part of the care pathway as your patient.

We’re often asked about our name, Onswitch. The simple truth is that we chose it because it captures our unwavering commitment to, and passion for, what we do – making the customer experience the best it can be. It’s constant. Never off. Always on.

Equally, our approach has never changed. It's all about patient outcomes and when it comes to optimising them, there are no shortcuts, no clever apps. Just time, understanding and action.

I just wanted to extend my thanks for the training (5 Steps Telephone Skills). It’s really well put together and I really enjoyed the way it was delivered. I think the whole course is brilliant and have asked my practice administrator to get the rest of the reception team on it too! I will be making some changes to my vocabulary imminently! Keep up the good work!
