Owner Review Summary
Distilled from Google reviews — see what pet owners actually say
👍What Pet Owners Praised
Owners consistently praised the clinic’s caring, empathetic and professional team, noting staff who go above and beyond (such as helping with a missing cat) and offering supportive communication around procedures and recovery. Many cited strong surgical outcomes and recovery support for dogs and cats, with clear post‑op explanations and reassurance during stressful times, including end‑of‑life care. Several long‑term clients reported years to decades of reliable care, and one review mentioned a very short wait time.
💬Common Feedback & Suggestions
While most feedback is positive, a few serious concerns were raised. One reviewer reported a pet’s death under anaesthesia during surgery, and another described poor discharge hygiene and a very distressed dog after an orthopaedic procedure. Multiple reviews mentioned cost concerns and feeling that billing or deposits were not well explained, plus one account of long phone holds and an unaccommodating reception experience. It was also noted that there is no overnight or most‑weekend staffing, which limits after‑hours support.

🐾Tips for Pet Owners
- Ask for a written estimate and have costs and deposit policies explained before procedures to avoid bill surprises.
- If your pet needs monitoring after hours or on weekends, plan ahead for referral to an emergency or overnight facility.
- Use a secure carrier and double‑check latches when bringing cats, as one review noted an escape in the car park.
- Discuss anaesthesia risks and post‑op care expectations in detail, and request updates during surgical recoveries.
- If your pet is anxious, flag this when booking so the team can prepare handling strategies and support.
