Top-ranked veterinary practices based on quality, service, and customer reviews
Ennis Veterinary Clinic is a pet-only practice established in July 2014 by vets Dennis and Meghan Ryan (BVMS). The clinic is set up for both routine consults and in-clinic investigation/treatment, with facilities listed on its site including an operating theatre, a diagnostic imaging suite (x‑ray and ultrasound), separate dog and cat kennels, and an isolation ward. In the latest reviews available to us, owners most often describe the clinic as strong on diagnostics and follow-up communication—for example, urgent examinations leading to a serious liver failure diagnosis within a week, and a late-evening call to confirm blood test results after a poisoning scare. There is also a sharply negative account alleging a prolonged misdiagnosis (ear infection vs. mast cell tumour) with repeated antibiotics and delayed referral.

Summerhill Veterinary Hospital is a general veterinary practice (no corporate/group ownership is mentioned in the information provided). Reviews describe both routine and urgent care for dogs, including weekend contact for an injury/abscess situation, and support around end-of-life decisions. Specific experiences mentioned include a vet keeping a dog in after anaesthetic until they were confident it had fully worn off, step-by-step guidance during euthanasia, and (in one negative review) repeated follow-up calls focused on payment after a short consultation.

O'Connor's Ennis Veterinary Surgery provides consultations for companion animals and also runs a mobile ambulatory service for farm and equine clients (as stated on its website). The website also states a 24/7, 365-day on-call emergency service; however, multiple reviews describe not getting a response when calling late at night for an emergency, so expectations around out-of-hours access may be worth clarifying. From the latest reviews available, owners repeatedly mention: - vets taking time to assess and discuss options rather than “automatically jumping to expensive procedures” - support around end-of-life decisions, including time spent talking through options for an older dog - willingness to help in difficult situations (e.g., assessing and treating a stray cat when others were “unhelpful”)
