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.

Around 9 and a half years ago I had to have my German shepherd put to sleep. KY, this practice intravenously put my dog to sleep. My dog did show real signs of distress. I do believe they should have sedated my dog intramuscularly before administering the fatal drug.. I've since had to do a similar thing abroad where the animal was sedated and it passed away peacefully. This practice needs to amend its policy for the good of the animal. If you have to make this heart rendering decision,make sure the procedure is respectful for the animal. We and ky were failed. RIP big boy How do you know they are good ! The animal cannot tell you. You and your pet are at their mercy, and you are vulnerable. They failed in their duty of care, and professionalism. Will never forget the experience. We now use Turn Hill vets Newport

Took my 10 year old cat for a checkup as she had some health concerns, had a 20 min appointment, plus blood test, had to pay £260. Absolutely ridiculous! I don't feel like I got my moneys worth at all. Got some guesses, inconclusive blood test with an offer for antibiotics that might help. The staff are nice but the pricing is insane.

STAFF AND NURSES 10 OUT OF 10 however (and it pains me to write this) after many years with this vets the major issue has become the slow hiking of prices due to the increasing issues heard in parliment and across the media which boils down to the nation wide corporate ownership of the group...550 quote for a grass seed....650 for spaying of a 18kg dog.....plus extras which are not needed....i have worked and bred animals for over 20 years and not once in all the years of going to a vet have I EVER seen one of those posters saying 'our staff will not tolerate abuse' which suggests there have been increasing instances where people have argued or got frustrated at pricing. Which at seven edge is not the staffs fault but some faceless middle.manager share holder pushing for profit over and above the welfare of those on the front line trying to help people like me.....as I say...staff superb and amazing 10 out of 10....upper management less so.....thankfully there are now independent vet options in Much Wenlock which are OUTSTANDING and fair and well priced and just like vets were back in the day.

Amazing practice. I was referred by my trusted usual practice for an endoscopy for my beloved dog and was a bit uncertain what to expect. The lovely vet went above and beyond to take a detailed history and explain planned proceedures. He kept me updated throughout the day and he fully explained all his findings post proceedure. Very empathetic, knowledgeable and obviously dedicated to providing gold standard care. The reception staff were friendly and welcoming too.
