Clinic Overview

Cedars Veterinary Centre is a small-animal practice that also operates as a veterinary nurse training facility. Based on recent reviews, owners describe being offered same-day appointments and quick turnaround for urgent problems (for example, a lunchtime call leading to an appointment that afternoon, followed by dental surgery the next day). Several reviews mention hands-on treatment during visits—such as giving an antibiotic and a pain-relief injection immediately—and follow-up communication including a post-op call from the surgeon after cruciate ligament surgery. While most experiences are strongly positive, one recent review alleges a serious breakdown at reception around an appointment booking, resulting in an elderly long-term client feeling embarrassed and leaving without their cat being seen.

Services

  • Small-animal veterinary care (as stated on the clinic website).
  • Dental care mentioned in reviews, including diagnosis of a painful tooth and booking for dental surgery the next day; antibiotics and a pain-relief injection given at the initial visit.
  • Soft-tissue/orthopaedic care mentioned in reviews: management and surgery for a torn cruciate ligament, with explanation of procedure and recovery, and a surgeon update call after the operation.
  • Routine and minor problem appointments mentioned in reviews, including first inoculations, anal gland issues, and ear infections.
  • Treatment after ingestion/incident requiring the dog to be made sick (vomiting induced), including accommodating a late Saturday arrival (“we’ll wait”).
  • Veterinary nurse training facility (listed in the structured clinic data).

People

  • Stephen (vet): Named repeatedly. Reviews describe him explaining a cruciate ligament operation and recovery in detail, and managing a cat with multiple ongoing health problems over a two-year period.
  • David (surgeon): Called an owner to confirm cruciate ligament surgery had been successful.
  • Abby: Praised for repeated call-backs while an owner was “figuring things out.”
  • Reception team: Experiences conflict—most reviews describe staff as friendly/helpful, while one review alleges rude, loud handling of an appointment dispute and an unsatisfactory apology.

Reviews

Google rating: 4.8 stars from 381 reviews.

  • Speed and access: same-day appointment offered for a cat; “very little waiting” on arrival; the team staying late on a Saturday so a dog could be seen.
  • Clear explanations and updates: detailed discussion of a cruciate ligament operation and recovery; a surgeon phoning after the procedure to report success.
  • Treatment delivered during the visit: antibiotic plus pain-relief injection given immediately for dental pain, then rapid booking for dental surgery.
  • Range of common issues handled: vaccinations, anal glands, ear infections, dental problems, and orthopaedic surgery are all specifically mentioned.
  • One serious negative report about front-desk handling: an appointment said to be confirmed but then denied on arrival, with the owner describing public embarrassment and a later apology that still assigned blame.
