Practice History 

The Practice was first started in the early years of the 20th Century by Mr Williams (who was the father of the 1st Baron of Ogmore). He was succeeded by Mr Griff Edwards in the early 1930's.

At this time the surgery premises were situated in Merthyr Mawr Road in Bridgend in a large semi-detached property with limited parking available. In 1949, Tom Davey started and the partnership became Davey and Jones in 1965 with the arrival of David Jones.

The veterinary practice was primarily concerned with the agricultural sector for the next 15 years after which companion animals and horses became an integral part of the practice. Michael King, who retired in 2012 joined in 1978, and Huw Davey joined in 1982 respectively; Karen Davies and Phil Geddes then joined the practice in 1990 and 1992, with Sarah Head then joining the practice in 2002 and the partnership in 2012.

The name Maes Glas Veterinary Group was taken when the main practice relocated to purpose built premises in August 1995 and the practice has over the years opened branch practices in Porthcawl, Pencoed, Llantrisant, Barry and more recently Cowbridge. Now Maes Glas Vets Ltd, the practice has evolved from a four veterinary surgeon practice in the 1960's to the twenty vets that are currently involved in providing animal care over a large area of South Wales, with Rhian Matthews-Davies who joined the directors in 2016, the latest recruit to the management team.

In summer 2017, Maes Glas Vets moved the farm work into a separate company (South Wales Farm Vets) in order to concentrate on developing the small animal medicine and surgery team. We hope the results speak for themselves.
