Burton Vets is part of the Lockwood Veterinary Group and has been established since 1994 (website). The clinic is RCVS-accredited (website) and reviews describe a practice that handles everyday veterinary needs (such as vaccination boosters/kennel cough and chronic problems like fits/seizures) as well as end-of-life care. Recent feedback is mixed: several owners describe thorough testing and clear explanations of treatment options and costs, while a small number report serious concerns about decision-making in a suspected parvovirus case and about short-notice appointment cancellation affecting time-sensitive vaccinations.
