Decision-relevant specifics from the latest reviews include

  • Quiet puppy appointment with “no cats” present was specifically appreciated by one owner with a young pup.
  • Owners mention vets who take concerns seriously and investigate, with one reporting improved quality of life and extended life for their dog after other vets dismissed concerns.
  • A past case of pancreatitis is mentioned, where a vet (“Tom”) was credited with saving a dog’s life.
  • There’s also a clear negative account alleging lack of privacy in consult rooms and poor communication unless prompted, alongside a complaint about being charged “so much”.

Services

Services and capabilities explicitly mentioned in the available reviews

  • Consultations (including short-notice appointments).
  • Puppy vaccination (an “initial consultation and first jab” is specifically referenced).
  • Medical treatment for pancreatitis (case described by an owner).
  • More invasive procedures via backup at another related clinic (one reviewer mentions being sent to a backup clinic for invasive procedures; details of procedures aren’t specified).

People

  • Tom (vet, previously seen by some clients): one reviewer credits him with saving their dog during a bout of pancreatitis and describes him as “all for the animals.”
  • Current/new vet(s) (not named): some owners describe the new vet as kind and considerate, and one reviewer says their dogs’ relaxed behaviour around the vet influenced their trust. Another reviewer had the opposite experience, saying the vet “seemed clueless,” didn’t explain much unless asked, and wasn’t confident answering questions.

Reviews

Google rating: 4.8 stars from 125 reviews. Thems below are drawn from the latest written reviews available to us.

  • Several reviewers praise professional, thorough care and say their concerns were taken seriously (including one account of a dog’s comfort and lifespan improving after earlier dismissal elsewhere).
  • Short-notice help is mentioned positively, alongside “lovely staff.”
  • Low-stress handling for a young dog is specifically described via a quiet appointment where there were “no cats.”
  • A repeated 1-star review raises concerns about consult-room privacy (doors reportedly held shut with wooden planks), limited explanations unless directly questioned, and a feeling of being overcharged (no amounts given).
