Old Stone Vets (Stanhope branch) is a small-animal-only practice providing consultations, vaccines, operations and 24-hour emergency care (per the clinic website). Reviews describe a team that can fit in urgent cases quickly (including a dog that wasn’t registered, seen within just over an hour), and that coordinates care across their branches when advanced diagnostics are needed (one case was sent straight on for X‑rays and ultrasound, with the receiving team ready on arrival). Owners also mention proactive updates during the day (e.g., three phone calls after assessment) and support around end-of-life decisions, including at-home euthanasia and a hand-signed condolence card afterwards.

Langley Park Vets Ltd is a recently opened practice (officially opened July 15th, 2025) run by two named vets, Henry Sheen and Lisa Paterson. The clinic is set up for day-to-day care as well as procedures done on-site, with in-house surgery, dentistry, and diagnostics (blood tests, digital X‑rays, ultrasound). Owners repeatedly mention continuity of care—seeing the same vet (Lisa or Henry) rather than a different clinician each visit. In the latest reviews, people also describe practical follow-through after procedures, including a phone call a few hours after a spay to confirm everything had gone well, and straightforward post-op visits such as stitch removal. One reviewer specifically notes it’s “nice to see a private veterinarian” again, suggesting it may be independently run (no corporate group is stated in the clinic information provided).

Scott Mitchell Veterinary Care Ltd describes itself as an independent practice treating small animals and horses, with facilities including radiography, a theatre, and in-house laboratory services. The website also states 24-hour emergency care with on-call vets (run from their Hexham branch). In the latest reviews available to us, owners most often highlight practical, decision-relevant details: appointments arranged at quieter times for anxious dogs, a waiting room that “is never overcrowded” (helpful for nervous cats), and vets taking time to explain treatment clearly—including for elderly pets.

Seaham Vets Limited describes itself as an independent clinic founded in May 2014 by two Registered Veterinary Nurses (Natalie Land RVN and Suey Turner RVN). The practice states it has an operating theatre, digital X‑ray and in‑house lab facilities, and offers a “24/7 service available.” Recent reviews strongly emphasise hands-on support through serious illness and end-of-life care, including repeated follow-up calls after treatment and detailed bereavement support (for example, a candle to signal a client was grieving, a care package, and keepsake paw/nose prints and a sympathy card). Reviews also mention the team seeing small pets such as rats (including surgery/procedures and palliative care) as well as routine cat neutering (spay).

Westway Veterinary Group is set up for ongoing, hands-on care as well as urgent problems: recent reviews describe repeated visits for complex puppy illness (“puppy strangles”), an orthopaedic knee operation, and support “in an emergency.” Owners also mention practical preventive care, like weight‑management advice, and appointments being “seen on time.” Communication comes through strongly in multiple accounts—one owner describes the vet explaining “what and why he was doing things” during a thorough examination.

Durham Equine Practice is a dedicated equine-only veterinary practice established in 2010 and described on its website as providing an exclusively stable-side (ambulatory) service for horses, ponies and donkeys. The practice is RCVS-accredited and offers a 24-hour ambulatory emergency service, 365 days a year. From the latest reviews available to us, owners most often mention fast emergency call-outs and ongoing support for serious situations (including laminitis management and end-of-life care/PTS). A smaller number of recent reviews raise concerns about administration and insurance invoicing—specifically a report of a large bill being chased years later after the insurer had not been billed, which the reviewer says was resolved once submitted.

Clifton Lodge Veterinary Group describes itself as having cared for pets and owners since 1950, and it also operates as a veterinary nurse training facility. The website states the practice provides 24/7 digital vet support via a partnership with VidiVet (including bank holidays). From the latest reviews, owners most often talk about compassionate support during end-of-life situations (including follow-on support after a pet’s death), and about staff taking time with anxious or uncooperative pets—one owner describes a nervous dog being handled patiently through vaccinations and a male neutering procedure. There’s also a contrasting account from a long-standing client who felt pressured around pricing when requesting a prescription to buy medication elsewhere.
