## Summary The information available to us doesn’t describe a veterinary clinic. The website text we could retrieve and the latest Google reviews appear to be for a property/estate agency (“Jordan Auctioneers”), while the name in the clinic record is “Simon B Harty”. Because of this mismatch, there isn’t enough reliable, clinic-specific evidence here to describe veterinary services, facilities, or how pets are treated. What *is* consistently described in the reviews we have is a home-buying/selling process: frequent communication and updates, help with documentation, and practical support such as meeting to hand over keys outside normal hours. ## People Names mentioned repeatedly in the latest reviews (in the context of property sales/purchases, not pet care): - **Mark**: described as patient, supportive, quick to respond, and providing guidance through a sale/purchase process. - **Liam**: mentioned for smooth handling of documentation/communication and being approachable/easy to talk to. - **Fiona**: described as warm and supportive during a stressful process. - **Gary**: mentioned as helpful with questions and making the process easy. - **Clive**: mentioned for professionalism and kindness when handling a family home sale, including presale advice and managing viewings. ## Reviews **Google rating: 4.9 stars from 110 reviews.** **Themes below are drawn from the latest written reviews available to us.** - Reviews focus on **buying and selling homes**, not veterinary treatment. - Frequent mentions of **fast, responsive communication** (calls/messages returned quickly; regular updates). - **Process management** is highlighted: help with documentation, resolving issues, and keeping the sale moving. - Specific touches mentioned include **meeting outside normal hours to hand over keys**, and staying involved after “sale agreed”. - One review references **transparent online bidding** as part of the service.

## Summary The available information doesn’t clearly describe a veterinary clinic or animal healthcare services. The listing is titled “Grangemore Stud,” but the written reviews that include detail talk about visiting a “little old graveyard and church ruins” with medieval-era remains and views, which suggests this may be a different type of place than a stud farm or a pet clinic. Recent reviews are mostly 5-star but provide little written detail beyond brief comments like “Lovely place” and “Brilliant.” ## Reviews **Google rating: 4.7 stars from 10 reviews.** **Themes below are drawn from the latest written reviews available to us.** - Several reviews are 5-star with minimal detail (e.g., “Lovely place,” “Brilliant”). - The only detailed written review describes it as a small, well-kept graveyard and church-ruins site with medieval history and a gate that’s unlocked; it mentions it being nice to walk around.

## Summary Ark Animal Care Veterinary Practice’s website content available to us is heavily geared towards **animal health/agricultural supplies** rather than describing clinical appointments: the navigation highlights an **“Our Products”** section split into **Cattle**, **Sheep**, **Horses**, plus **Diagnostic Kits** and **Environmental Products**. There’s also an **“Our Team”** page listed, but no readable detail about clinicians, facilities, or treatment services was captured in the source provided. On Google, the profile shows a **small, mixed set of reviews (3.5★ from 6)**. The written reviews available to us don’t describe veterinary care, which limits what can be inferred about day-to-day clinical standards. ## Services Based on the website text we have access to, the clearest described offerings are product categories rather than clinical services: - **Products for livestock/equine**: categories listed for **cattle**, **sheep**, and **horses** - **Diagnostic kits** (listed as a product category) - **Environmental products** (listed as a product category) No specific clinical services (e.g., vaccinations, surgery, dentistry, imaging, hospitalisation) were explicitly described in the captured website summary or the available written reviews. ## Reviews **Google rating: 3.5 stars from 6 reviews.** **Themes below are drawn from the latest written reviews available to us.** - **Very limited veterinary-care detail**: the written comments available don’t describe treatment, outcomes, pricing, or communication during pet appointments. - **Responsiveness complaint (possibly unrelated to veterinary work)**: one 1-star review mentions offering “6 kitchen chairs” and receiving no response. - **Star ratings are mixed** (both 5-star and 1-star ratings appear), but without accompanying clinical detail it’s unclear what those ratings relate to.
