👍What Pet Owners Praised
Owners consistently praised the warm, compassionate team and the way vets take time to explain conditions and treatment options without pressure or upselling. Many cited excellent clinical care across emergencies, surgeries and ongoing issues, with several noting breed-specific knowledge and gentle handling of anxious or reactive pets. Long-term clients highlighted years of reliable care and said their animals are actually happy to visit.
💬Common Feedback & Suggestions
Reviews are overwhelmingly positive, with only a few concerns raised. A handful of owners felt prices were high, citing costly routine services such as nail trims, dental cleans under anaesthetic and desexing quotes. One reviewer reported a nail trim cut too short that caused bleeding, and another mentioned a 30‑minute wait despite a booked appointment. Cleanliness was rarely mentioned, but no hygiene concerns were raised.
