Dog & Cat Vets in Shropshire

Severn Edge Veterinary Group – Bridgnorth Pets / MiNightVet Bridgnorth is part of the Severn Edge Veterinary Group and operates as an RCVS Veterinary Hospital with 24-hour emergency support via MiNightVet (with full-time night staff). Based on the website, it’s set up as a small-animal hospital with in-house diagnostics (lab, X-ray, ultrasound) and a wide range of services including referral-level work (cardiology, internal medicine, ophthalmology, orthopaedics, soft tissue, and laparoscopic/keyhole surgery). In the latest reviews, owners repeatedly describe emergency and inpatient care: rapid response during active seizures, hospitalisation over multiple nights with regular updates, and fast turnaround on test-result calls. Several reviews also highlight end-of-life support, including being able to stay with pets and receiving paw/nose prints.

Severn Edge Farm Vets is part of the Severn Edge veterinary group and is described on its website as an RCVS Veterinary Hospital with in-house lab, X-ray and ultrasound. It offers a wide range of routine care (vaccinations, neutering, microchipping) alongside referral-level services such as orthopaedic surgery, keyhole surgery, ophthalmology, cardiology and internal medicine. For emergencies, the practice states it provides 24-hour emergency support, with MiNightVet Bridgnorth providing dedicated out-of-hours emergency services. In the latest written reviews available, owners highlight practical support that goes beyond the consult itself—phone advice, clear explanations on how to give medication, and updates during urgent situations. Reviews also mention care for hens (including gentle handling) and an incident involving an injured muntjac, where a vet called back, gave advice, then located the animal and kept the family informed.

Medivet Shawbirch is part of the Medivet group and offers routine care plus in‑practice diagnostics (in-house lab, X‑rays and ultrasound) with 15‑minute consultations listed on its website. The practice is also marked as a veterinary nurse training facility. In the latest reviews available, owners repeatedly mention being fitted in at short notice, staff taking time to listen to concerns, and calm handling of nervous pets; one reviewer also describes a strong negative experience at another Medivet branch, contrasting it with Shawbirch advising against a procedure.

Medivet Ellesmere Talbot Street is part of the Medivet group (not an independent practice). Based on the information available, it seems set up for general practice care with access to Medivet’s wider out-of-hours network, plus support around complex and end-of-life cases. Concrete specifics owners mention include: - Diagnosis and ongoing management of diabetes in a large-breed dog, with reported improvement for around 6 months. - End-of-life care is a prominent theme: owners describe gentle sedation before euthanasia and, in one case, an at-home end-of-life experience. - Same-morning appointment was reported for an urgent issue while travelling. - The practice is listed as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility.

Bridgnorth Veterinary Centre Ltd’s ownership (independent vs corporate group) isn’t stated in the information we have. Recent reviews describe a practice handling everything from routine puppy vaccinations to more complex cases including spinal injury assessments, dental extractions, kidney illness requiring a drip, and longer-term cancer care (lymphoma). Concrete details owners mention include: - A vet taking time to help a nervous 12‑week‑old puppy settle before injections, talking through the plan without “trying to sell” extra products. - Dental extractions with a smooth start-to-finish experience and good recovery reported. - Hospital-style support for a very unwell dog with kidney problems, including being put “on a drip,” plus staff calling back with updates. - Dermatology/skin case management where a vet reportedly stopped prior medications and switched to antifungal treatment and shampoo (three times a week), with longer-term improvement noted. Pricing feedback is mixed: some owners question costs, and one review reports a price discrepancy for an “AHC card”.

Brownlow Veterinary Centre is part of the Brownlow Vet Group (a multi-clinic practice) focused on companion-animal care. The website highlights a setup for routine and more involved cases, with surgical facilities, anaesthesia, radiology, laboratory services, and hospitalisation. It’s also listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. From the latest reviews available to us, owners most often describe staff listening to concerns and being supportive during difficult decisions (including euthanasia). Specific examples mentioned include treatment for a dog’s eye problem with a “brilliant recovery in a week,” and thoughtful handling of end-of-life care for an 18‑year‑old dog. One reviewer describes the practice as “very expensive,” while another explicitly felt they weren’t “just counting the money,” so experiences on cost/value appear mixed.

Telford Madeley Vets4Pets Ltd is a locally owned Vets4Pets practice with a modern, well‑equipped setup (in‑house lab, digital X‑ray, ultrasound, operating theatre, hospital ward, and separate cat/dog waiting and wards). Based on the clinic’s stated capabilities and what owners describe, it appears geared for routine care plus diagnostics and surgery, including dentistry and soft‑tissue/orthopaedic procedures, and it also advertises care for rabbits and small mammals. Decision‑relevant signals from recent reviews are mixed: several owners describe vets taking time to explain options and handling anxious pets calmly, while others report concerns about costs/upselling, front‑desk rudeness, and record‑keeping/medication charging errors. Specific examples mentioned include squeezing in an anxious dog when the owner arrived a week early, dental surgery with extractions for an older collie with a heart murmur, and a complaint that a guinea pig was charged for “critical care” that wasn’t in stock. Out‑of‑hours care is stated on the website as being provided by Vets Now.

Haygate Veterinary Centres – Oakengates is set up as a small-animal practice with both routine care and more advanced options (including referral services for orthopaedic and soft tissue surgery, cardiology, and internal medicine), plus on-site out-of-hours emergency support via MiNightVet. Recent reviews repeatedly describe a calm, confidence-building experience for young cats, and detailed communication during more serious cases—one owner says their dog stayed in for several nights and the team called twice daily with thorough updates. A joining “free check-up” is also mentioned by a new client.

Vets Now Telford is part of Vets Now, a UK-wide network focused on out-of-hours and emergency veterinary care (including video consultations). Based on the latest reviews available, it appears set up for urgent presentations that can’t wait for a regular daytime appointment—owners describe being booked in quickly, being greeted at the door, and pets being assessed and treated immediately (including a 1am visit for an eye infection). Reviews also describe coordination back to a pet’s regular vet after overnight care, including a promised follow-up call and arranging transfer for ongoing treatment. There’s a clear split in review experiences around access and policies: some owners describe rapid help and strong communication, while one review describes being refused help without bringing the dog in (including refusal to test a urine sample or provide a home visit).

Severn Edge Veterinary Group – Madeley is part of the Severn Edge veterinary group and is listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. The group’s website describes a wide small‑animal service offering (from routine consults and vaccinations through to diagnostic imaging and surgery), alongside nurse clinics and home visits. In the latest reviews available to us, owners most often describe friendly, helpful staff and thoughtful end‑of‑life support (including a sympathy card after a pet was put to sleep), but there are also clear complaints about high costs and a small number of experiences described as lacking empathy or involving a rude interaction during a vaccination visit. Concrete examples mentioned by reviewers include: - Staff doing a post‑op check in a way that suited a nervous dog (including going outside where the dog was more comfortable). - Owners using the practice for drop‑in weighing. - Sympathy gestures after euthanasia (a card sent afterwards). - Disputes about pricing for imaging/consults and a quoted emergency pyometra operation.
