From the latest reviews, owners most often describe: support during end-of-life care, getting appointments quickly in some cases, and helpful reception staff. A minority of reviews report the opposite—particularly concerns about being charged for a consultation when they felt no consult took place, and complaints about rudeness at reception and errors/omissions in pet records.

Concrete examples mentioned include

  • Reception arranging a visit “so quickly” for a first-time client with a sick cat.
  • Multiple owners describing staff support when a pet died or was euthanised.
  • A complaint about a £63 consultation fee where the reviewer says no examination/consultation happened.
  • A complaint about nail clipping causing bleeding, and issues with vaccination paperwork and microchip details not being recorded in emailed histories.
