Meadow Lane Vets

Meadow Lane Vets is a long-established practice (founded in the 1870s) focused on small animals and exotics, with on-site diagnostic and surgical facilities (including x‑ray, ultrasound, microscopy and lab functions, surgical areas and kennels). The clinic states it will see emergencies 24/7; when closed, calls are diverted to MiNightVet East Midlands, where emergency-trained vets and nurses are on-site. Recent reviews describe quick emergency access for a sick older cat, detailed explanations of findings (including for a rabbit), and “after care” following treatment for a cat injured in a fight.
