People

  • Harry (vet): mentioned in a review for examining two cats “top to tail,” identifying health problems, and helping the owner understand options; a specialist referral was organised the same day.

  • Katie: repeatedly credited in a long review for handling a very nervous dog with patience over time (the dog reportedly became comfortable enough to wag on seeing her), and for guiding the owner through end-of-life decision-making and the euthanasia process with clear explanations and support.

Reviews

4.3 stars from 272 reviews. - Communication can be excellent for some: one owner described quick replies via phone/WhatsApp and good availability around vaccination and spaying, plus a clean environment and a calm experience for their kitten.

  • Clinical thoroughness and follow-through: owners mention detailed exams and being given information to make decisions; one review highlights a same-day referral after a booster/health check.
  • Support for rabbits/small pets is mentioned: one owner thanked the team for help and medication for a “mini lop.”
  • A clear conflict on admin and trust: several 1‑star reviews describe poor reception follow-up, delays, difficulty progressing complaints, and incorrect pet records. Another owner felt pushed toward extractions and long-term arthritis medication without a full exam, and reported a second opinion disagreed (teeth cleaning only; joints normal for age).
