Clinic Overview

Severn Veterinary Centre is a small-animal practice established in 1999, and it’s also listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. Recent reviews describe the clinic fitting in last‑minute appointments when needed, and handling both routine care (boosters, nail clips) and difficult, end‑of‑life decision-making. Specific examples owners mention include keeping a very nervous dog calm during a booster and nail clip (with “Vet Elizabeth”), discussing quality‑of‑life options in detail for a dog with suspected dementia, and providing thoughtful follow-up after euthanasia (a condolence card and forget‑me‑not seeds). The website mentions emergency services, but doesn’t give details on how these are provided.
