Owners also mention good continuity of care when cases are handled across more than one branch, and one reviewer notes pricing can be high.

Medivet Uppermill (Ian McConnell Vets) is part of the Medivet group and appears set up mainly for routine small‑animal care (cats and dogs are repeatedly mentioned). Reviewers often describe being seen on time (typically “only a couple of minutes” wait) and being able to order flea and worm treatments through reception. One recent reviewer had a very different experience, saying an allergy-medicine visit was extremely brief, involved no check-over, the medication wasn’t held in stock, and they were still charged—so experiences around exam thoroughness and costs appear mixed.

Community Pet Clinic operates under the Animal Trust group (the original Animal Trust practice, established in 2012) and is set up as both a general practice and an emergency hospital with a Pet A&E service described as available 365 days a year. The website highlights in-house diagnostics (including CT, ultrasound, X‑ray, dental X‑ray, and an on‑site laboratory), which aligns with reviews mentioning same‑day X‑rays and hospital-style care including overnight stays. From the latest reviews, owners most often describe: - being able to get urgent or same‑day appointments (including booking via an online chatbot system) - confident handling of difficult or anxious dogs (e.g., promptly taking a barking dog to the back to settle) - diagnostics and surgery being organised quickly for serious issues (e.g., suspected ACL rupture; foreign body “bone” surgery), plus post-op progress updates and wound checks

The Lane Family Pet Centre (associated in reviews with the Van Dijk/Luck Van Dijk veterinary practice) appears to provide routine small‑animal care for both dogs and cats, with procedures and diagnostics mentioned including spays and blood tests. It’s not clear from the available information whether the practice is independent or part of a larger corporate group. From the latest reviews, many owners describe long-term use of the practice (including one review citing over 20 years) and day-to-day experiences such as pets being comfortable attending (one owner says their dog “absolutely loves going”). However, there are also detailed complaints about communication and expectations—particularly around how planned blood tests were handled for a cat, and how a spay quote was presented vs billed. Concrete specifics mentioned: - Dog spay/neutralisation booking, with an itemised invoice including consumables (e.g., scalpel, nitrile gloves) discussed by a reviewer. - Routine blood tests for a cat were booked, but one reviewer says the appointment vet questioned whether testing was needed and the blood draw attempt was unsuccessful. - Pets being taken away from the owner during an attempted blood draw is specifically described in one review. - One reviewer references a “24 hour care system,” though details aren’t provided.

Acorn Veterinary Surgery
Manchester
Our Score (80/100)
Acorn Veterinary Surgery describes itself (in reviews) as a private practice, with many owners repeatedly naming vet Simon Tollet and his team for day-to-day care. It also advertises emergency veterinary services (24/7 or extended hours). Recent reviews contain a clear split: several clients report calm, reassuring handling of pets and owners (including with senior pets), while multiple low-star reviews focus on difficult phone interactions with a receptionist when trying to arrange sensitive or administrative matters (including a euthanasia appointment request and a microchip/vaccination record query). Concrete specifics mentioned by reviewers include: - Owners feeling put at ease by Simon during appointments, including with an older dog. - Requests for euthanasia appointments being handled very differently depending on who answered the phone (some describing a lack of compassion). - Queries about microchip company/transfer details and vaccination certificate/chip number being discussed. - One review alleges poor hygiene practice after a rectal exam; this is not corroborated elsewhere in the latest reviews we have.

RT Jones is described by reviewers as an independent practice that has “remained private” and continues to be run by Mrs Jones (wife of the late Mr Jones), rather than being part of a chain. It appears set up for long-term, continuity care: multiple owners mention staying with the practice for 8–20+ years and bringing several pets over time. Practical examples from reviews include pets being dropped off for X‑rays and operations, careful handling of fearful animals (a rescue dog terrified of vets; a nervous cat), and detailed consultation discussions for a 15‑year‑old dog’s health problems.

Woodcroft Veterinary Group describes itself as a group of six practices with a “state-of-the-art” veterinary hospital providing routine care alongside referral and emergency treatment for dogs, cats and rabbits. The website highlights major hospital facilities (multiple operating theatres, CT, ultrasound, X‑ray, in-house lab facilities, and visiting MRI), which fits with reviews describing hospital-level cases such as corneal ulcer surgery and intensive resuscitation attempts. Owners’ recent experiences are mixed: several reviews describe detailed updates and follow-up (including daily calls after a pet’s death and vets staying in touch after treatment), while one recent 1‑star review alleges a late-night consultation led to a recommendation for immediate euthanasia that the owner feels was inappropriate. Concrete examples mentioned include CPR and injectable treatment for 45 minutes on arrival in an emergency, urgent treatment for a corneal ulcer, and referrals in for heart murmur assessment/treatment.

Vets on the Meowve is a home-visit veterinary service operating from a specially designed mobile veterinary surgery, established by Registered Veterinary Nurse Christine Dixon. Based on the website and recent reviews, it’s geared towards doing many “in-practice” type jobs without your pet needing to travel—ranging from routine vaccinations and health checks to procedures performed in the mobile unit. Owners repeatedly mention: - thorough, unhurried exams with clear explanations of care and costs before treatment - procedures carried out via the mobile clinic (for example, lump removals), with pets recovering at home afterwards - support for anxious pets (and owners with mobility/health limitations) because appointments happen in the pet’s familiar environment
