Grey Abbey Veterinary Hospital is part of the Village Vets group (the clinic’s website is hosted under villagevets.ie). Based on recent reviews, the practice is frequently used for urgent and end-of-life care, and some owners mention communication touches such as sending a video update while a cat was recovering and not eating. Multiple reviews describe follow-up contact after difficult cases, including after an out-of-hours emergency visit. There is also conflicting feedback about how the clinic handles found/stray animals and about standards of monitoring for overnight patients.
