Reviews

4.8 stars from 285 Google reviews. Recent feedback is largely very positive, with owners often focusing on specialist care, communication, and the way staff handle difficult situations.

• •Specialist and complex-case support stands out: reviews mention cardiology consultations with ultrasound and ECG, as well as help with seizure management, medication, and follow-up blood tests.
• •Communication is a recurring strength: owners describe thorough explanations, phone updates during treatment, and in one case updates continuing over a weekend.
• •Surgery and aftercare are praised: one owner said their dog’s surgery went very well and that they had direct access to the veterinary surgeon when recovery questions came up.
