Best 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 Veterinary Group – Much Wenlock is part of the Severn Edge veterinary group, with structured clinic data indicating emergency cover (24/7 or extended hours) and that it is a veterinary nurse training facility. Reviewers most often talk about day-to-day consults and tests, with one detailed account of a referred endoscopy where the vet took a full history, explained the plan, gave updates during the day, and went through findings afterwards. A recurring decision point in the reviews is cost: multiple owners praise the front-line team, while also describing steep or rising prices and feeling they didn’t get value from investigations. Concrete specifics mentioned by owners include: - Endoscopy work-up with detailed explanations and same-day updates (review). - Blood testing during a 20‑minute appointment that an owner felt was inconclusive (review). - Pricing concerns including quotes for a grass-seed issue and a dog spay (review). - A negative account of a euthanasia experience where the owner felt sedation should have been handled differently (review).

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.

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.

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.

Severn Edge Veterinary Group – Bridgnorth Equine is part of the Severn Edge Veterinary Group (not an independent standalone clinic). The website information available to us describes a small-animal hospital with 24-hour emergency cover (including an on-site dedicated night service, “MiNightVet”), while the latest reviews we can see are heavily focused on equine call-outs and ongoing horse care—so the public-facing information appears mixed across small-animal and equine services. From recent owner accounts, this clinic is set up for hands-on, problem-focused treatment with practical support: examples include treatment plans for laminitis and foot abscesses, vets coming out to a field for assessment and medication, and follow-up after the first appointment. One review also describes a cat being cared for overnight with “loads of information” provided to the owner.

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.

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.

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).
