Distilled from Google reviews — see what pet owners actually say
👍What Pet Owners Praised
Owners consistently praised the specialist expertise and outcomes across multiple departments, including successful BOAS surgeries, complex orthopaedic and medical cases, and excellent exotics care for rabbits and chickens. Many highlighted compassionate, professional bedside manner and clear communication, with thorough explanations, options discussed, and regular updates during hospital stays. The clinic’s 24/7 availability and smooth admin support (including help with insurance gap claims) were also frequently appreciated.
💬Common Feedback & Suggestions
While the vast majority of feedback is positive, a minority of reviewers raised concerns about costs, with a few describing the service as expensive or money‑focused. There were occasional communication frustrations such as difficulty getting phone advice, a lack of call‑backs, or needing to return for scripts. A small number reported disappointing outcomes, including one case alleging inappropriate treatment that led to a pet’s death. Overall sentiment is strongly favourable, but clearer expectations around fees, follow‑up communication and remote advice could help.

If you have pet insurance or are considering payment‑plan options (e.g. VetPay, Afterpay, GapOnly), ask the team what’s available for your situation.
