Owner Review Summary
Distilled from Google reviews — see what pet owners actually say
👍What Pet Owners Praised
Owners consistently praised the caring, friendly team and vets who take time, are thorough and compassionate across routine care, emergencies and end‑of‑life support. Many long‑term clients (years to decades) noted prompt access to care, often being seen the same day and even on Sundays, with gentle handling of anxious or senior pets. Several reviews highlighted cat‑friendly expertise and facilities, plus effective help with behaviour issues, dental care and tricky problems like a tick in the eye.
💬Common Feedback & Suggestions
Reviews are overwhelmingly positive. Minor concerns mentioned were limited on‑site parking (only a few spots) and one comment about a ‘tough love’ bedside manner from some vets. An older review alleged pushy treatment options and another reported a rude interaction when bringing in an injured wild bird, while one long‑time client decided to move on without giving reasons. Recent COVID‑related limits on the number of clients inside mean you may need to wait outside.
