Owner Review Summary
Distilled from Google reviews — see what pet owners actually say
👍What Pet Owners Praised
Owners consistently praised the genuinely caring, compassionate team and clear, thorough communication from the vets and nurses. Many highlighted strong medical outcomes across surgeries and procedures (e.g., TPLO/cruciate repairs, fracture pinning, dental extractions, eyelid mass removal) with diligent follow‑ups and updates. Transparent, reasonable pricing without pressure to over‑service was frequently mentioned, as were easy parking and good appointment availability, including same‑day help when needed.
💬Common Feedback & Suggestions
Reviews are overwhelmingly positive, with a few concerns noted. A small number of owners reported rough or poorly managed handling during procedures (e.g., an ear swab and an injection) and one serious complaint about being asked not to return, as well as an instance where a consult was charged despite referral to emergency. Reception friendliness felt inconsistent to a few reviewers, one person questioned cleanliness, and a handful felt prices were higher than expected. These were outliers against a large volume of highly satisfied, long‑term clients.

🐾Tips for Pet Owners
- Book ahead where possible as the clinic can be busy, but ask about same‑day slots for urgent issues.
- Request an itemised estimate upfront; reviewers noted costs are usually provided clearly and don’t change unexpectedly.
- If your pet is anxious or reactive, let the team know on arrival so they can plan gentle handling and a calmer set‑up.
- Use the on‑site parking (including spots at the back) and arrive a few minutes early to settle your pet.
- For surgery, expect written aftercare instructions and follow‑ups—keep your contact details handy and ask any questions you have.
