Reviews also mention practical help with insurance paperwork, while one person reports being given several pet-transport numbers that didn’t result in help when they had no car.

Services

  • Emergency veterinary care for small animals (website).
  • Video consultations (“Video chat with a vet today” is shown in the website text).

  • Care after a dog attack, including examination and treatment planning.
  • Road-traffic accident care (“hit by a van”) with discussion of difficult decisions.
  • Out-of-hours help for a cat repeatedly escaping a post-spay cone; staff offered to refit the cone properly.
  • Medication given during an urgent visit, including an injection and take-home prescriptions.

People

  • Emily (vet): Mentioned in a Boxing Day emergency; described as “extremely thorough” with advice and treatment, and as keeping in touch during a 31-hour hospital stay with regular phone-call updates.
  • Amanda (front desk/reception): Praised for calm, practical support during a dog-attack emergency—offering water, moving the owner into a consult room quickly, and clearly explaining finances without pressure; also helped with admin.
  • Katie (vet): Described as calm and reassuring, and “incredibly thorough” when explaining what was happening during a dog-attack case.
  • Maisie (staff member; role not specified): Mentioned for late-night help with a post-spay cone issue—patient, attentive, and willing to show what to do and refit the cone.

Reviews

Google rating: 4.3 stars from 575 reviews.

  • Phone advice that escalates to “come in now” when needed, followed by a full assessment and explanation of likely diagnoses and treatment options.
  • Out-of-hours and holiday coverage is a recurring reason for attendance (late-night visits; Christmas Day/Boxing Day emergencies).
  • Hospitalisation and follow-up communication are specifically described (regular phone-call updates; one owner says they were able to visit their dog during a 31-hour stay).
  • Practical, calming front-desk support during emergencies, including help with insurance-claim details and clear discussion of costs (one owner says they initially felt the consultation fee was high but felt it made sense after seeing the clinic/care).
  • One operational frustration noted: when an owner had no car, the transport numbers provided did not lead to assistance.
