In the latest reviews available to us, owners most often highlight clear explanations and time to discuss concerns, alongside practical, hands-on care such as ongoing thyroid treatment for a cat and a nurse helping by removing a badly matted knot in fur. Several reviews also mention pets being comfortable attending and continuity with seeing the same vets over time.
