Riverforest Veterinary Centre highlights out-of-hours emergency handling on its website and offers online appointment booking. In reviews, owners most often single out Steve for taking time to listen and check pets thoroughly, and for gentle handling of anxious animals (one nervous dog reportedly came out of the treatment room “with her tail wagging” and a plan in place). A detailed older review describes a sock ingestion case where the team kept a dog an extra day for additional tests and tried to avoid surgery before operating when it proved necessary, with the owner saying the operation went well.

Greystones Vets is a long-established practice (established in 1992) providing routine and clinical veterinary care for dogs, cats, and small furries. Based on the website, the clinic is set up for day-to-day consultations plus in-house diagnostics, lab work, dentistry, and surgery, with emergency services also mentioned. In the latest reviews available to us, owners repeatedly name specific vets (Enda and Hazel) and describe practical advice, calm handling of excitable dogs in the clinic, and a practice that feels organised and clean.

Port Vet Clinic offers routine care alongside in-house diagnostics (X‑rays, ultrasound, blood testing) and surgical work including neutering and orthopaedic surgery, with a 24‑hour emergency call service stated on its website. Recent reviews give concrete examples of the clinic handling difficult situations: support with euthanasia for a very unwell stray cat, a week-long hospital stay with IV fluids (“on a drip”) for a critically sick dog, and help with trapping and neutering a feral tomcat (a trap loan scheme is mentioned as having existed previously, but the reviewer notes it may no longer be available). Ownership/group affiliation isn’t stated in the information provided.

Oran Veterinary Clinic is a companion-animal practice offering routine preventive care alongside in-clinic diagnostics (X‑rays and blood tests) and procedures such as neutering, dentistry, and soft-tissue surgery. Reviewers repeatedly mention clear explanations during exams and treatments, record-keeping with paperwork provided, and at least one report of being seen “out of hours in minutes” for a suspected urgent cat issue. One recent reviewer, however, strongly disagrees with this picture, saying the clinic felt “all about money and not welfare,” so experiences appear to vary.

Inishfree Veterinary Hospital describes itself as a long-established pet hospital (opened in 1981) offering care across a pet’s lifetime and accepting referrals from other practices (group ownership not stated). Based on the website and reviews, it appears set up for both routine work-ups and more involved medical/surgical cases, with in-house diagnostics mentioned (radiography, ultrasound, lab, ECG) and a “hospital” service. Concrete examples from recent and older reviews include: getting an appointment within an hour for an injured budgie and providing cleaning/sterilisation; treating an out-of-hours cat emergency (pain relief at 9pm) followed by x‑ray and surgery for a fractured jaw; and providing euthanasia support described as sympathetic. One review alleges unethical overcharging and an inaccurate late-pregnancy ultrasound result; this conflicts with multiple reviews describing prompt, professional help.

Leixlip Veterinary Hospital is described in reviews as a general veterinary practice seeing a range of species, including dogs, cats, and pet birds (budgies). Owners mention being fitted in when a pet had a serious condition, and being given time and space during end-of-life appointments. Reviews also include a detailed second-opinion case for a dog with a chronic stomach issue, where the vet discussed a plan to investigate rather than rushing the appointment. Concrete examples owners mention: - Urgent appointments: one owner says they were “fitted in” due to a serious condition. - End-of-life care: multiple reviews describe compassionate euthanasia support and being allowed time with a pet afterwards. - Complex/ongoing problems: a chronic tummy issue in a dog where the vet made a plan to look into it and gave practical advice. - Exotics: treatment for two budgies, which the owner noted isn’t commonly offered by many vets.

Deise Vets presents itself as a general veterinary clinic aiming to provide “professional, high quality healthcare for all animals,” and it explicitly welcomes new clients. Recent reviewers mostly comment on how straightforward the clinic is to deal with—describing the team as “helpful and reasonable”—and mention friendly staff and vets they consider skilled. Several reviews are very brief (including two that mention “rosé” without any clinical detail), so the written feedback available to us is limited on specific treatments or outcomes.

Archersfield Veterinary Clinic is described in recent reviews as a practice that handles routine surgery and short-notice sick visits, with a strong emphasis on explaining treatment clearly. Owners specifically mention a spay appointment with a post-procedure phone call from the vet to explain what was done, and detailed discharge instructions about medication and aftercare questions. Reviews also reference being “fitted in at short notice” for an antibiotic when another vet couldn’t see the pet, and compassionate support during serious, unsuccessful attempts to save two dogs, including clear professionalism around difficult outcomes.

The Vet Clinic describes itself as an independently owned practice that uses fear-free techniques. Based on the website and recent reviews, it appears set up for routine preventative care (health checks, vaccinations, microchipping) as well as diagnostics, with owners also mentioning acupuncture and support around end-of-life decisions. Reviewers repeatedly highlight appointments that don’t feel rushed (“Lisa really listens… and takes her time”), and one owner describes being given “all the time in the world” to say goodbye during euthanasia, including help with decision-making.
