Quality of Veterinary Care

Pros:

  • "They sort the cat out very quickly and he's all better now."
  • "The whole visit was very well organised and I was very impressed with ppe and how profession you all were. Thank you."
  • "He did Frankie's TTA surgery last year and now Frankie has to have another one...I know Colin will do his absolute best for my dog."
  • "Brilliant vets, I rang up to book an appointment for my cat who was not very well and got seen very quickly."
  • "The vet that dealt with my poorly cat was very polite and explained all options to me and how much it would cost."
  • "Our pet dog Axel suddenly became ill about lunchtime... The operation was a success thanks to Maggie and her team and we are very happy to have our big boy back at home being pampered."
  • "Charlotte the vet was very considerate of our nervous rescue and offered to do the exam on the floor if it would help."

Cons:

  • "Good vets for usual animals but NOT so good when it comes to rats, a temp vet knew her stuff but since left."
  • "Warning to pet owners !!!!... Surgery was carried out at the cost of £2,600... Eventually we went back and insisted on an X-ray to have what we suspected all along which was that the surgery had not worked."
  • "Just shame they're a rip off, was only in the vets for 1.5 hours and cost £980 I feel scammed."
  • "Please AVOID using this Place at all costs they will sell you the surgery and when it goes wrong they will take no responsibility for it."
  • "It could be easily seen that our dog was rapidly losing weight and was in pain. Yet you offered no pain medication despite us asking for you to help him for 7 days!"
  • "I’ve taken my dog here for past 9 years... except they missed she and a problem with her tear duct in one eye and kept saying it was ulcers."
  • "Horrible service dog had little tear in ear wouldn't tell me how to stop the bleed they wanted to put her under and stitch quoting me 1100+ for this."

Value for Money

Pros:

  • "The price we paid was reasonable considering an emergency appointment and treatment given."
  • "I think the price is fair tho to my embarrassment and panic I didn’t quite have enough to pay the bill, the 2 ladies at reception were very understanding."
  • "Got a price and was the cheapest I could find for my puppy thank you excellent and very professional done surgery no trouble so far after op."
  • "Price wise they are a lot cheaper than previous vets I have been to and the service is twice as good."
  • "Also we feel their pricing is very competitive and good value."
  • "All this is priceless, but I have often found them to be very reasonably priced too."
  • "Their prices are reasonable."

Cons:

  • "I would pay anything for my dog but it seems that this vet sadly thinks that owners are cash cows."
  • "Looked to make money on everything to do with my dog. Even tried to charge me for a second coffin for her ashes when she died."
  • "Seem to care more about being paid than the pets health."
  • "My baby boy almost died because of your shambles of a service... saving his life was cheaper than you risking it! Yet your prices are competitive right?!"
  • "Got charged 50% more this time for the same emergency surgery they performed 18 months ago on another one of our dogs."
  • "For last 2 years it seems they are more interested in money than the care. Checks which have always been included in the examination price are now charged extra."
  • "Rather disappointed actually. A good example of how the Northampton branch veterinary only cares about the money."
