Independent Clinic
Treats:

Bay Vets Ltd is a multi-branch veterinary practice accredited under the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) Practice Standards Scheme. The clinic describes 24/7 care with their own staff for out-of-hours cover, and reviews echo access to help outside normal times via online chat on a Sunday that led to a same-day consultation. Based on the website and recent reviews, the practice appears set up for both routine care and more advanced work, including: - CT imaging via referral (an owner specifically mentions attending for CT scans). - Surgery, including a dog’s operation for undescended testes, with the team explaining what to expect and going through post-op care at pickup even when a complication required an additional incision. - Support for difficult appointments, including euthanasia, where owners describe receiving emotional support from both clinical and front-desk staff.
