Clinic Overview

Hunters Bar Veterinary Group – Dronfield is a long‑established small‑animal practice and part of CVS (the clinic email domain is cvsvets.co.uk). The clinic is set up for routine care and procedures (consultations, surgery and dentistry) with on‑site diagnostics including X‑ray and ultrasound. The website also lists less common options such as acupuncture, plus nurse clinics for practical treatments like parasite control and nail clipping. In the latest written reviews available to us, owners repeatedly describe staff taking time to explain upcoming operations and helping stressed cats during hands‑on treatments; one reviewer also alleges the practice is a “cash grab,” which conflicts with the otherwise positive feedback.
