Unhappy with how I was being treated when brought my dog in by a vet I’ve never seen before in crowes as a regular, her attitude towards me was disrespectful, musnt have the heart to be a vet the way she was acting

I brought my dog to Crowe's clinic for a second opinion because my previous vet couldn't find the cause of my dog's discomfort. I was impressed with how thorough the vet was in examining him and the steps given to treat him. The front staff were friendly and helpful. My only frustration was the 50 minute wait to see the vet. I'm unsure if that is normal practice or a one off occurrence.

Down on holidays from Kildare, at the scenic Lough arrow caravan park, had the misfortune to break my dogs bottle of medication on the second day of our holidays. Was recommend this practice by John and Cath owners of the caravan park. Went in, and from there I was given the medication after they received the script from my vets. Nothing is a problem to them. Dealing mostly with Grainne at the reception, this lady is a credit to her employers, with her lovely smile and making people feel at ease, sadly lacking in a lot of practices these days.I would give this practice 10 stars if I could. Would highly recommend.
