Highfield Vet Group

Highfield Vet Group presents itself as a general practice offering everything from routine checks to urgent cases, and the website states the team can handle emergency situations “with urgency and expertise.” In recent reviews, owners repeatedly describe being fit in quickly when needed (one dog was seen within 1.5 hours at short notice), and appointments that don’t feel rushed—especially with nervous or difficult-to-handle animals (a semi‑feral cat was handled patiently). Dental work is also specifically mentioned, with an owner saying their small, elderly dogs had dental treatment done here and that the vet was “very thorough.” Front-desk support is also called out in one review for staying professional and patient during a tense waiting-room situation.
