Dog & Cat Vets in Boyle

## Summary Green Veterinary Centre is a general veterinary practice that, based on reviews, sees a mix of pets including dogs and poultry (multiple owners mention chickens being treated and recovering). Several reviews describe being seen at short notice (including a Saturday visit where a sick puppy reportedly improved within an hour after treatment). The review record also includes a serious complaint about the handling of a diabetic dog (the owner reports no blood tests were done, they were advised to go home overnight, and they were told there was no vet on call when they rang later). Separate reviews mention inconsistent front-desk experiences—some describe reception as supportive, while others report unhelpful interactions. ## Services Services and situations explicitly mentioned in the available reviews include: - **Poultry/chicken care** (owners describe vets treating chickens and providing “extensive care,” with chickens recovering and returning to normal). - **Same-day/short-notice appointments**, including a **Saturday** visit mentioned by one owner. - **Injections and medications for acute illness** (an owner mentions an **antibiotic injection** and an **anti-sickness injection** given during a visit). - **Diabetes-related care discussed** (insulin dosing is referenced in one complaint; the same review alleges **no blood tests** were performed during the initial visit). - **Out-of-hours/on-call availability:** one owner reports being told **there are no vets on call** when they phoned in the evening. ## Reviews **Google rating: 4.8 stars from 124 reviews.** **“Themes below are drawn from the latest written reviews available to us.”** - **Positive outcomes after treatment**, including a report of a very sick puppy improving quickly after being seen at short notice. - **Multiple positive poultry/chicken cases**, with owners describing knowledgeable vets and successful recovery. - **Front-desk experience appears inconsistent:** one reviewer says the “saving grace” was the nurses and vets while describing a repeatedly difficult receptionist; another review also criticises reception for lack of empathy. - **A major negative clinical account** involving diabetes care: the owner alleges inadequate assessment (no blood tests), lack of urgent escalation/referral, and no on-call vet when symptoms worsened later that day.

## Summary Boithrín Cúng Veterinary Clinic is a small animal practice based on the limited information available. Recent reviews repeatedly describe care for both dogs and cats over multiple years, with owners emphasising an “efficient” service and attentive handling of their pets’ needs. One review mentions a Jack Russell needing life-saving surgery and receiving “excellent care,” but the written review also references a different clinic name, so it’s unclear which clinic that surgery relates to. ## Services Based on the information available from reviews: - Veterinary care for **dogs and cats** (owners mention both). - **Surgery** is mentioned in relation to a Jack Russell, but the review text references a different clinic name, so this cannot be confidently attributed to Boithrín Cúng Veterinary Clinic. ## People No staff members are named in the available information. Reviews refer to “he” (the vet) and describe: - **Long-term, ongoing care** for owners’ dogs and cats (“through the years”). - An approach owners experience as **attentive and efficient** (described explicitly in repeated reviews). ## Reviews **5.0 stars from 3 reviews.** The available written reviews are brief, with some duplicated text. “Themes below are drawn from the latest written reviews available to us.” - Owners describe the vet as **caring/compassionate** and **efficient**, and mention appreciation for the attention given to their pets over time. - One review mentions **life-saving surgery** for a Jack Russell with “excellent care,” but it also names a different clinic, so the experience may not relate to this clinic.
