Best Vets in Leicestershire

Crescent Veterinary Clinic is part of CVS Vets (a corporate group). It’s set up as a small-animal practice offering both routine care and urgent help, with out-of-hours emergencies directed to MiNightVet Nottingham. On the evidence available, owners most often mention support around end-of-life appointments (including follow-up touches like a condolence card and paw print) and being fitted in when time-sensitive care is needed (for example, getting cat booster vaccinations done before travel). The practice is an RCVS General Practice, and the website states it has disabled access and on-site parking.

Market Harborough Vets4Pets Ltd is part of the Vets4Pets chain and is listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. Based on the latest reviews available to us, owners most often describe a calm, friendly experience alongside practical touches like post-op updates—one owner received a WhatsApp message and photo after their kitten’s spay and microchip procedure. Reviews also mention staff taking time to listen and explain options, and handling nervous pets gently (including giving a vaccination without the dog noticing). There are also examples of the team resolving an appointment-time mix‑up quickly and politely.

Rutland Veterinary Centre is an RCVS-accredited small-animal practice offering routine care (vaccinations, parasite control, microchipping) alongside procedures such as neutering and keyhole spaying, plus diagnostic imaging and veterinary nurse consultations. The clinic also states it provides its own 24-hour emergency service (365 days a year) for registered clients via another branch, where you would see their regular vets and nurses. From the latest reviews available to us, owners frequently describe prompt appointment access and friendly front-desk and clinical teams; one review gives a detailed example of a badly cut paw being stitched and bandaged by two vets, with the dog collected about two hours later. A minority of reviews raise concerns about cost/value and policies—one owner felt pressured into a re-check to obtain pain medication, and another queried closure over the Christmas period except for emergencies.

Medivet Hinckley Leicester Road - Fairfield Veterinary Centre is part of the Medivet group (not an independent practice). It’s set up for routine appointments like annual check-ups and vaccinations, and it also offers access to Medivet’s round-the-clock emergency care via its 24‑hour centres (with a stated overnight consultation fee). Recent reviews include both smooth, low-stress routine visits (e.g., vaccinations/injections where pets “never even felt it”, and gentle handling of stressed cats) and a serious complaint about a cat dying shortly after being told blood results were fine, alongside concerns about money being prioritised. Concrete details mentioned by owners include: - Same-day appointment arranged for a guinea pig (seen by “Bev”). - Annual cat check-ups and vaccinations with on-time appointments; one reviewer notes the vet was a locum and very gentle with stressed cats. - First injections for a Shih Tzu reported as painless. - Blood tests quoted at about £450 in one complaint, with a follow-up call stating results were fine before the pet later died.

Dermvet Skin & Ear Clinic focuses on veterinary dermatology for dogs and cats, with in-house testing and equipment geared toward complex ear disease. The website notes a state-of-the-art laboratory plus video otoscopy; reviews repeatedly describe swabs/cytology and camera footage being shown and explained during appointments. Owners most often mention long-running or hard-to-fix ear problems (including chronic otitis and pseudomonas ear infection) and allergy-driven skin/ear disease being worked up and managed over time, including follow-ups and ongoing therapy (e.g., monthly treatment mentioned for dust mite/pollen allergy).

Farm Veterinary Solutions is a farm-focused veterinary practice and a member of XLVets. The website emphasises a proactive, disease-prevention approach for dairy and beef cattle, sheep flocks, and gamebirds, and states that their own team of vets covers emergencies 24/7. Reviews reinforce a broad species mix (livestock and pets are both mentioned), including a specific note that “Maria” has camelid knowledge. One review is unrelated to clinical care (a complaint about a van alarm), while the rest focus on service and expertise.

Farm Veterinary Solutions Ltd is a farm-focused veterinary practice that also appears to see a wider mix of animals, based on both its website and reviews. The clinic describes a proactive, prevention-led approach for herd and flock health (aimed at keeping animals healthy and performance on track), and states it provides 24/7 emergency care with its own team of vets. It’s a member of XLVets (described on the site as a community of independently owned practices). Concrete details owners mention include: - A named vet, Maria, singled out for camelid knowledge. - Reviews referencing treatment of dogs, alongside comments about expertise in livestock and equine work. - One dog owner describing the vet as putting both owner and dog at ease while awaiting results.

Leicester St Georges Vets4Pets Ltd is part of the Vets4Pets group and is set up for both routine small-animal care and more specialised work with exotics (the website explicitly lists reptiles, rabbits and small mammals). On the facilities side, it lists an in-house lab, digital X‑ray, ultrasound, an operating theatre, isolation, and separate cat/dog waiting areas and wards. It’s also listed as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility. In the latest reviews available to us, experiences are mixed: some owners describe strong clinical outcomes (e.g., long-standing ear problems resolved and hyperthyroidism diagnosed after other vets missed it), and one owner says they were seen “straight away” when arriving with an emergency. Others report problems with front-desk administration—particularly appointment delays/rescheduling and disputes about charges on a health plan (including an emailed balance demand and threats of debt collection).

Bell, Brown & Bentley is a veterinary practice that (per clinic data) is also a veterinary nurse training facility and is flagged as offering emergency veterinary services (24/7 or extended hours); the website specifically references what to do for out‑of‑hours pet emergencies. Recent reviews describe several concrete touches and experiences: one owner received a condolence card plus paw prints and fur keepsakes after bringing in a deceased cat, and another describes the practice treating an injured cat quickly and helping reunite it with its owners. Alongside these positives, a few owners raise concerns about pricing and decision-making, including feeling pushed toward multiple medications or being charged more than expected for vaccinations.

UK Vet Derm Ltd is a specialist-led veterinary dermatology referral service for dogs and cats, led by an RCVS Recognised Specialist in Veterinary Dermatology (per the clinic website). Reviews repeatedly describe complex, long-running skin and ear cases being investigated and managed with same-visit testing (including swabs) and video-otoscopy footage shown to owners. Concrete examples from owners include treatment plans for allergy-driven chronic otitis, pseudomonas ear infections, and skin changes linked to Cushing’s (calcinosis and coat loss), with follow-up monitoring described in some cases (e.g., regular rechecks and longer-term therapy). Note on urgent care: “Emergency veterinary services (24/7 or extended hours)” is listed in the provided clinic data, but this isn’t corroborated by the website summary or the written reviews available to us.
