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 warm, patient and thorough, taking time to explain everything and never making them feel rushed. Many noted strong clinical outcomes, from swift orthopaedic surgery and effective urgent care to accurate diagnostics (including ultrasound) and long‑term management of senior pets. The clinic also drew repeated praise for caring, knowledgeable treatment of exotics such as rabbits, guinea pigs and birds, and for compassionate support around end‑of‑life decisions.
💬Common Feedback & Suggestions
Reviews are overwhelmingly positive, though a few concerns did surface. Several owners felt costs were high, and a small number alleged unnecessary procedures, misdiagnosis or poor outcomes; one rabbit owner reported subpar care despite many others praising their exotics vets. A couple of reviewers mentioned admin and comfort issues (a lost booking, long waits or no seating, and a noisy waiting area that unsettled cats). Appointment availability is generally good, but confirming bookings and discussing estimates up front may help.

🐾Tips for Pet Owners
- If you have rabbits, guinea pigs, rats or birds, ask to book with a vet experienced in exotics.
- For urgent issues, ring ahead—multiple reviewers were fit in at short notice, even on busy days.
- Request a written estimate and discuss treatment options up front if you’re cost‑conscious.
- If your pet is noise‑sensitive, consider waiting in the car or asking staff for a quieter space; a towel over a carrier can also help.
- Double‑check your appointment confirmation, especially for first visits or if booking by phone.
