Independent Clinic

Clinic Overview

MSK Vets is an independent veterinary referral clinic focused on musculoskeletal problems and pain management for dogs and cats, working alongside your regular vet. It appears set up for arthritis, joint pain, lameness investigations and mobility support, with owners repeatedly describing thorough gait-analysis appointments using a treadmill system, followed by clear, option-based treatment discussions (including hydrogel injections mentioned in reviews). Reviews also repeatedly mention the team taking time with anxious dogs—letting them explore, building rapport, and adapting the appointment pace—and at least one owner reports a follow-up/after-care call after a procedure.

People

  • Adam (seen for consultation + gait analysis): described as patient with an anxious, “bouncy” dog, allowing time to explore before starting, and providing gait-analysis results that helped the owner pursue answers about possible pain.
  • Drew (seen for assessments and procedure discussions): owners describe clear explanations in everyday language, talking through multiple treatment options and answering questions; one review mentions a down-to-earth conversation after assessment and again after a hydrogel injection procedure.
  • Kelly (front-of-house/reception mentioned by name): described as providing a warm welcome and helping owners and anxious dogs feel settled; one owner noted the wider team also adjusted the environment for an anxious dog (e.g., avoiding running a vacuum).

Reviews

5.0 stars from 72 reviews. “”

  • Thorough gait analysis is a recurring reason for referral, often described as detailed and informative, helping owners understand how their dog is moving and what might be causing discomfort.
  • Anxious/nervous dogs are a common focus, with multiple owners saying appointments were deliberately slowed down: time to explore, rapport-building, gentle handling, and adapting the pace to the dog.
  • Clear explanations and options-based planning: reviews repeatedly mention staff explaining findings and next steps in plain language, outlining multiple options and helping owners choose a plan.
  • Procedures and follow-up: hydrogel injections are specifically mentioned; one owner reports the procedure took a couple of hours and that they received an after-care call afterward.
  • Admin support: one owner reports insurance claim forms were handled quickly and efficiently.
