Clinic Overview

Glenthorne Veterinary Group is a veterinary practice that also operates as a veterinary nurse training facility. Based on recent reviews, it handles routine care as well as more complex or sensitive situations (including end-of-life support), and owners mention practical systems such as an easy prescription-ordering service and a Pet Club used for regular parasite treatments and medications. Reviews also suggest the team can accommodate behaviour needs—for example, booking quiet-time appointments for dogs that are nervous, barky, or reactive around other dogs.

Owners frequently describe consultations as thorough and explanatory (including discussing home treatments and when to escalate to prescribed medication), though one review reports a negative experience where treatment costs were not explained in advance, while another explicitly says they were informed of options and costs.

Services

  • General veterinary consultations for dogs (examples mentioned include a check for licking/irritated paws with discussion of home care and medication options).
  • Care for rabbits (owners specifically mention taking “two bunnies” to the practice).
  • End-of-life support alongside routine appointments (as described by a reviewer).
  • Prescription service and repeat medication ordering (described as easy/efficient).
  • Preventive treatments via a Pet Club (owners mention ordering wormers and flea treatment, and other medications through it).
  • Veterinary nurse training facility (listed in the clinic’s provided service data).

People

  • Jo (vet/team member, role not stated): praised for being “very thorough,” giving a dog a full check-over, explaining home treatments, and offering the option of prescribed medication if symptoms continued.
