It’s also listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. In the latest reviews available to us, owners most often describe supportive handling of difficult end‑of‑life visits (including helping families through euthanasia decisions) and being able to see urgent cases quickly (one review describes an emergency visit for a pet rat where they were “got… in right away”). The clinic’s out‑of‑hours emergency cover is provided by The Willows Veterinary Centre when the practice is closed (as stated on the website).
