Capontree Veterinary Centre

Capontree Veterinary Centre is a multi-site, multidisciplinary practice treating pets, horses and farm animals, and it’s also listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. Reviews point to a clinic that handles both routine care and unexpected problems—owners describe everything from preventative visits with vaccination reminders to same-week treatment for an eye infection and stitched repair of a torn paw pad. Several reviewers mention practical decision-making (for example, using sedation rather than a general anaesthetic for a paw-pad repair to reduce stress and costs) and follow-up after treatment (a recheck two days later was specifically noted).
