Weedon Vets
Weedon
Our Score (71/100)
Weedon Vets is a veterinary practice that is also listed as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility. Recent reviews repeatedly mention surgery with follow-up oversight, out-of-hours consultations, and support with end-of-life care. Specific examples include a dog’s surgery described as successful with the vet overseeing “follow ups and recovery,” a case where the team identified severe stomach cancer quickly after another practice missed it, and a home visit to help with euthanasia, which the owner valued because their other dogs could understand what had happened.

- •Support for anxious/nervous dogs: a vet stayed calm with a very nervous dog, provided medication to use before another visit, and (in that case) didn’t charge when the appointment couldn’t be completed. - Communication and practicality: owners describe reception as helpful in some cases (including a call-back after checking with a vet), and one review praises vets for being direct and not adding “unnecessary extras.”
- •Conflicting experiences with reception and access to urgent care: one owner reports being told there were no appointments for several days when calling about an older dog suddenly unable to bear weight, and felt the receptionist’s tone lacked empathy. - Serious concern about clinical thoroughness/costs in one account: one review criticises an exam outcome and a dental cleaning quote (just over £1,000), stating another clinic diagnosed kidney failure shortly afterwards.
