Veterinary Nurse Training
Independent Clinic

The Carisbrooke Vets has been providing veterinary care since the 1960s and, based on its website, covers small animals, exotics and farm work, with 24/7 in-house emergency and out-of-hours provision. Recent reviews most often describe quick access for urgent problems (being “seen immediately” or “straight away”), clear explanations during consultations, and practical follow-up information after treatment. Owners also mention some on-site workflow choices that affect visits, such as keeping cats and dogs separated in the waiting area (though one reviewer notes this isn’t always followed by other owners) and the use of text notifications.

The People's Vet Ltd describes itself as an independent veterinary practice offering routine and urgent care, supported by digital X‑ray, ultrasound, and an in-house laboratory. In the latest reviews, owners repeatedly mention urgent/emergency surgeries (including an emergency operation for a shih tzu, and care after a cat’s pelvis was broken in a dog attack), operations with pre-med given in the waiting room while the owner stayed with the dog, and end-of-life care where families felt the euthanasia process was handled kindly and quickly. Several reviewers also contrast it with other practices on cost and priorities (e.g., one person says they were quoted “5 times” more elsewhere; another says “money was not your priority”).
