Farm & Large-Animal Vets near Wicklow Town

## Summary Wicklow Veterinary Clinic is a purpose-built, modern practice offering medical, surgical and diagnostic care for a wide mix of animals (dogs, cats, small furries, horses and farm animals). The clinic advertises a dedicated 24/7/365 emergency service with an in-house vet on call, but it’s restricted to registered clients. Owners also mention ongoing chronic-care visits (for example, regular steroid injections for a dog) alongside routine appointments. Review signals are mixed: several people describe friendly, helpful reception and vets, while others raise strong concerns about cost (including a €93 visit described as under five minutes) and a few serious complaints about missed/late diagnosis and lack of follow-up after making a complaint. ## Services - Medical, surgical and diagnostic treatments (as described by the clinic). - Species seen: dogs, cats, small furries, horses and farm animals. - Emergency care: dedicated 24/7/365 service with an in-house vet on call, restricted to registered clients (as stated by the clinic). - Pet foods, accessories and veterinary supplies sold on-site (as described by the clinic). - Pet Health Club® Plus plan mentioned by the clinic, with consultations included (no plan price/details provided in the available info). - Steroid injections are specifically mentioned in reviews as a recurring treatment for one dog. ## Pricing - A recent reviewer reports being charged **€93** for a visit they said lasted **less than five minutes**. - Another reviewer reports spending **more than €500** on tests/treatment over a period of about **two weeks** (no itemised breakdown provided). ## Reviews **4.6 stars from 216 reviews.** The latest written reviews include both routine-care praise and a small number of detailed negative experiences involving cost and diagnostic outcomes. “Themes below are drawn from the latest written reviews available to us.” - Friendly/helpful front-desk and vets are mentioned (for example, one owner says they’ve “always” found receptionists and vets friendly and helpful). - Repeat care for ongoing conditions: one dog is described as coming in regularly for steroid injections and being “well known” at the clinic. - Cost complaints: reviews include “money hungry” and a specific report of **€93** for a very short appointment. - Diagnostic concerns: two cat owners describe deterioration after initial visits and say another clinic later identified a key issue (fluid around the heart in one case); another reviewer alleges their cat was treated for the wrong symptoms for two weeks, with multiple tests, and they did not receive a response after submitting a complaint.
