## Summary Milan Veterinary Practice is a multi-branch practice (the website mentions three branches) with owners describing both routine and urgent care, including late-night call-outs. Reviews include specific examples of vets talking owners through whether an emergency visit is actually needed (to help avoid unnecessary cost), carrying out emergency treatment, and following up a few hours later to check progress. End-of-life care is a recurring theme too, with multiple owners describing unhurried euthanasia appointments where procedures were explained clearly and handled with compassion. A minority of recent reviews raise concerns about high prices and poor communication, which conflicts with other reviews that highlight clear explanations and honest discussions. ## Services - Emergency care / call-outs: Owners mention a 4am Saturday call-out, phone triage before attending, and emergency attendance for a pet in severe pain. - Follow-up after urgent treatment: One reviewer reports the vet checked in a few hours later to make sure the pet had settled. - Euthanasia and end-of-life support: Several reviews describe euthanasia appointments where vets did not rush, explained what would happen, and supported owners through the process. - Species mentioned: Reviews reference dogs and equine care (“From equine to canine”). - Veterinary nurse training: Listed in the clinic data as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility. ## People - Louisa (vet): Mentioned in an emergency case where she “did her very best” and showed determination in trying to help a dog before the situation deteriorated. - Peter: Named in a review describing euthanasia; the owner highlights “kindness personified,” plus attentiveness, honesty, empathy, and patience during a difficult visit. - Geri (vet; spelling uncertain in review): Praised during a euthanasia appointment for not rushing, explaining everything, and treating the dog with compassion. - Reception staff: Specifically thanked in an end-of-life review for being supportive during the visit. ## Reviews Google rating: 4.6 stars from 182 reviews. “Themes below are drawn from the latest written reviews available to us.” - Emergency handling and communication: Owners describe vets discussing symptoms on the phone to decide whether a visit is necessary, then providing emergency treatment and explaining diagnosis/prognosis. - Follow-through: At least one review mentions a proactive check-in a few hours after treatment. - End-of-life care: Multiple reviews focus on euthanasia support—being unhurried, having procedures explained, and compassionate handling of both pet and owner. - Cost and communication concerns: A small number of reviews describe the practice as pricey and one recent review alleges poor communication; this contrasts with other accounts praising clear, honest discussions.

Point of Care Ltd describes itself as a mobile veterinary clinic operating from a “state-of-the-art mobile clinic,” offering at-home/on-site care for pets, equine, and farm animals. The website lists services ranging from consultations and laboratory work through to operations, plus referral options for chronic pain management and complementary therapies (acupuncture and the Animal Dorn Method). It also states 24/7 emergency services are available for existing clients. The latest written Google reviews available to us do not describe veterinary care (they discuss non-veterinary home-support/cleaning tasks and a navigation/address-finding issue), so they provide little usable evidence about the clinical experience for animals.

Milan Veterinary Practice is a multi-branch clinic that advertises consultations included as part of a Pet Health Club® Plus plan (as stated on its website). Recent reviews describe it as set up for same-day urgent problems as well as routine care, with multiple examples of pets being seen quickly and treated on the spot. Specific examples owners mention include a dog examined immediately and given an anti-inflammatory injection for sudden limping, and a sick puppy (not registered) where the team contacted the pet’s usual vet for history, diagnosed the issue, and prescribed treatment. Price is a mixed point: one recent review calls it “Expensive.”
