Owner Review Summary

Distilled from Google reviews — see what pet owners actually say

👍What Pet Owners Praised

Owners frequently praised the vets for being thorough, compassionate and quick to diagnose and treat issues, including emergencies and surgeries. Many noted strong follow‑up (including returned calls), a friendly team, and long‑term, loyal relationships spanning years. Several reviews highlighted being fitted in at short notice or even just on closing, and some mentioned reasonable costs. Grooming was described as a happy, good‑value experience by a number of clients.

💬Common Feedback & Suggestions

A noticeable minority reported concerns about communication and compassion policies: pets being taken to the back without owners, discussions held in public areas, and not being allowed to be present for euthanasia. Some reviewers cited rude or dismissive interactions, including one serious complaint about behaviour outside the clinic. Pricing drew mixed reactions, with a few feeling overcharged for consults, medications, or grooming compared with quotes. Grooming quality was inconsistent for some, and one owner felt their pet was overdiagnosed and overmedicated; another felt a curbside ‘drive‑by’ consult was inadequate.

🐾Tips for Pet Owners

  • If you prefer to stay with your pet during exams or procedures, ask about their policy beforehand and request this at check‑in.
  • For grooming, get a written quote that confirms weight and inclusions to avoid surprises at pick‑up.
  • Discuss medication pricing up front and ask if a script can be provided if you wish to compare pharmacy costs.
  • For urgent issues, call ahead—reviews suggest they can fit emergencies in and may stay a little past closing.
  • If you don’t want your pet taken ‘out the back’, say so early and ask for clear explanations of any recommended tests or treatments.
