Clinic Overview

Shannonside Veterinary Clinic is a general practice that, based on recent reviews, handles both routine care and urgent problems—owners mention getting a same-day appointment when their dog needed to be seen quickly. The clinic is also described as providing surgical neutering (with a dog neutered there) and helping with end‑of‑life arrangements, including guidance around cat cremation even for people not yet registered. One long-term client also reports the team came out on short notice when a dog was in trouble, suggesting they can support urgent situations beyond a standard in-clinic visit. Several reviews also reference an on-site pet supplies/store area, with staff giving product advice.
