Owner Review Summary
Distilled from Google reviews — see what pet owners actually say
👍What Pet Owners Praised
Owners consistently praised the vets and nurses for their compassion, patience and gentle handling, especially with anxious pets and during end‑of‑life care. Many mentioned clear, thorough explanations, good follow‑up (including next‑day check‑in calls), and feeling supported through everything from routine checks to surgery and hospital stays. Reviewers also highlighted fair, reasonable pricing with no upselling, and long‑term loyalty from clients who’ve attended for many years.
💬Common Feedback & Suggestions
While reviews are largely positive, a small number reported serious concerns including alleged misdiagnosis or delayed urgency for worsening conditions, and one post‑operative loss. A few owners found reception staff rude or defensive, and there were occasional delays or difficulty securing urgent appointments; one reviewer also noted medication stock not being immediately available. One cleanliness complaint alleged ringworm exposure, and another advised the clinic was not suitable for rabbit care. Pricing concerns were rare, but one reviewer felt overcharged and another cited lack of consent for an ear tattoo.

🐾Tips for Pet Owners
- If your pet is anxious, let the team know—reviewers say the vets will take things slowly and use a gentle approach.
- For urgent or rapidly worsening symptoms, insist on same‑day assessment or consider emergency care if an appointment isn’t available.
- Confirm species expertise (e.g. rabbits/exotics) before booking, and ask about medication availability; request a script if stock is limited.
- Discuss costs and consent for any add‑on procedures (such as desexing tattoos) and ask for written aftercare instructions.
- Book ahead for peak times and allow for possible delays due to emergencies; check current opening hours, including any weekend availability.
