Reviews

Google rating: 4.6/5 from 268 reviews.

• •Recent feedback is mostly very positive, with owners often describing the team as friendly, knowledgeable, caring and good at explaining treatment options.
• •Calm handling of nervous pets stands out: one owner says a reactive dog had a genuinely positive routine check-up with Holly, while others say their dogs were welcomed and managed according to how they were feeling that day.
• •Reviews also mention thoughtful communication, including regular updates when pets were staying for treatment, and especially warm praise for end-of-life support from Henry, Niah and Amy.
• •One recent 1-star review describes an emergency surgical case that the owner says was not taken on by the practice; this is the clearest negative theme in an otherwise strongly positive set of recent reviews.
