Northwest Vets appears set up for a mix of companion-animal care and practical farm/poultry work, based on reviews describing kitten care, puppy injections and check-ups, treatment for an injured chicken, and same-day testing of a sheep dung sample. Owners repeatedly mention clear explanations from the vet, a clean/“spotless” clinic interior, and situations where the team advised coming in straight away for an urgent problem (stitching a chicken after an attack). Follow-up is also described in at least one case, with stitches removed two weeks later and recovery monitored.

Ownership/group status isn’t stated in the available information. Based on reviews, Seaview Veterinary Clinic is used for both pet and farm-animal care, and seems set up to handle urgent problems quickly—owners describe being fitted in for emergency appointments and getting same-day treatment. Concrete examples include arranging a first-thing appointment for a new client’s cat and completing urgent dental surgery later the same afternoon, and making time to talk through concerns (one owner says the vets know their dogs by name and “are never too busy to chat”). Home visits are also mentioned in reviews.

Susan Roulston Vet Clinic appears to be a small, vet-led practice where clients specifically mention Susan by name and describe her handling as gentle and low-stress for animals. Reviews repeatedly highlight calm, patient treatment during visits (including for puppies) and note that charges are not “extreme” compared with other vets. One review reports a negative front-desk experience (rude/condescending receptionist), which conflicts with other comments describing staff as “lovely.” A review from a year ago also claims the clinic wasn’t taking on new clients at that time.

Carn Vets treats dogs, cats, and farm animals, and lists routine care like vaccinations, neutering, and dental care alongside selling dog & cat food. The clinic states it provides 24/7 emergency cover for their clients. In reviews, owners most often describe thorough examinations, help in urgent situations (including last-minute Saturday appointments), and support around surgery (including a retriever’s surgery and another pet booked in quickly for an operation). One review also notes the practice has German-speaking female vets, which helped their older dog’s care.

Inishowen Equai Centre is presented in reviews as a horse-focused centre that also provides veterinary care (one long-term client specifically mentions using “Anne” as their vet for cats and dogs over 13 years). Google reviews are overwhelmingly positive (4.9/5 from 19), but most written reviews are short, so there’s limited detail on clinical facilities or specific treatments. The most concrete points owners mention are well-kept horses, a relaxed visit experience, and a named vet (Anne) described as consistently good and helpful.
