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 being exceptionally caring, gentle and thorough, with clear explanations and unrushed consults. Many highlighted the holistic, integrative approach—combining conventional care with acupuncture, laser therapy, CBD oil and Chinese herbs—which led to noticeable improvements in mobility, chronic pain, skin/allergy issues, behaviour and even complex conditions. The clinic environment was repeatedly described as calm and welcoming, with quiet rooms, floor mattresses and anxiety-friendly handling helping nervous pets feel safe. Follow-up calls and personalised plans were also frequently mentioned.
💬Common Feedback & Suggestions
Reviews are overwhelmingly positive, with only a few concerns raised. A small number of owners felt costs were high or noted discomfort with pricing/estimates, and there were isolated reports of difficulty when seeking urgent or hospital-level diagnostics. A couple of reviewers mentioned travelling a long way or wishing there were more locations. Aside from these points, most feedback was highly complimentary.

🐾Tips for Pet Owners
- Book ahead for initial consults and holistic services (e.g., acupuncture/laser), as appointments are thorough and not rushed.
- If your pet is anxious, ask for a quiet room and arrive a bit early to let them settle; bring favourite treats for positive reinforcement.
- Discuss integrative options such as acupuncture, CBD oil, Chinese herbs, titre testing and personalised vaccination plans.
- For urgent or complex cases, call first to confirm they can accommodate you or whether an emergency hospital is more suitable.
- Request a written estimate and treatment plan upfront to help budget, as some owners found costs higher than expected.
