Hawkfield Veterinary Clinic is described in reviews as a long-running practice for some families (one cat attended for “over 20 years”), dealing with everything from routine procedures to complex, ongoing medical issues. Recent reviewers repeatedly mention being accommodated quickly when it matters—one owner says they were seen within an hour for an emergency call—and several describe staff supporting pets with long-term health problems and end-of-life moments.

Concrete examples mentioned include neutering, treatment for ear cancer (including reconstructive work described as “new ears”), and staff fitting in urgent appointments and follow-ups for unwell animals.
