People

•Myron (vet): Repeatedly named in reviews over many years. Clients often describe him as straight-talking, experienced, and focused on the animal rather than a softer bedside manner. Recent examples include diagnosing serious illness in elderly cats, helping owners through end-of-life decisions, explaining treatment options, and carrying out surgery.
•Practice team and front-desk staff (unnamed): Reviews regularly praise the wider staff as kind, helpful, and caring. One reviewer specifically highlights a phone team member for calmly helping during a distressing situation and discussing prices.

Reviews

Google rating: 4.9/5 from 321 reviews. Recent feedback is strongly positive overall, with a few notable negative comments.

•Long-term trust and loyalty: Several reviewers say they have used the practice for many years and would not trust another vet with their pets.
•Direct communication style: Myron is often described as blunt, honest, and “no BS”; many owners value that approach because they feel fully informed, especially when decisions are difficult.
•Compassionate care for older and unwell pets: Recent reviews mention support with elderly cats, heart failure, nervous dogs, operations, and euthanasia, with praise for both Myron and the wider team.
•Mixed but clear pricing and ethics theme: Some reviewers say the practice is reasonable on price and not prone to overcharging. The main serious criticism remains a detailed complaint about management of a singleton pregnancy before an eventual caesarean section, alongside one very brief one-star review with no detail.

I was recommended to visit here after terrible treatment by Blythmans and my cat came out with fleas! I had the same cat PTS here many years later and found the service I received was fantastic. Myron is a no BS kind of guy which can come across as abrupt, even now years later I sometimes feel he can be a little to abrupt at times, but he is who he is, he cares about the animals not the money. Prices are reasonable for the level of care received. I had up until last August four elderly cats registered here. Myron diagnosed our female 19yro Diabetic cat with Heart Failure last Aug and just last week (12/3/26) he confirmed my suspicions about our male 18yro cat (also Diabetic), he was indeed nearing the end of his life.🌈🌉 We currently have 2 remaining elderly cat's registered here, a female with a heart condition and a male who is fine. 🤞 I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Myron or this practice to other pet owners. Please don't go to pets at home around the corner.

Through word of mouth we were told about Myron. He is very straight talking and to the point which is what you need. Our Vinnie had seen him since we rescued him 9 years ago. Unfortunately Vinnie had to go to sleep on Tuesday night and we couldn't have asked for any more from Myron. What a vet, not interested in making big bucks but interested in keeping your animals healthy. Thank you to Myron and the rest of the staff for your many years of keeping Vinnie healthy and happy.

After using this vets for a number of years I feel really sad and let down to be writing this review. I took my small chihuahua dog on 3rd Nov for a health check and explained she was pregnant with 1 pup i had 2 scans done and the lady said the pup was quite a size and to visit my vet and explain the situation of a 🚩SINGLETON PUP 🚩she said he might suggest an elective C Section to ensure a safe arrival. On my visit I explained I was new to this as this was her 1st and going to be her only pregnancy we were going to keep the pup for ourselves. Myron said no he didn't do this as he said most dogs give birth without complications just to go home your about to have a learning curve keep researching looking online videos etc. He asked why 2 scans as sometimes they're wrong and there might be 2 or 3 pups in there and lots of water don't feed her too much this week. She went into labour the week after but there was no active pushes and all of the research Myron told me to do none of it was really applicable was all very confusing( he said call vet if pushes last longer than 30 minutes and no pup . None of this really happened other than a little restlessness and then back to normal and was ok lying down again and as her due / average date wasn't until about 5 days later I was a little anxious but then didn't notice a problem because i hadn't had the experience before but i now know this was because with only 1 pup my dog wasn't getting the oxytocin to give her the signs she needed for her pushes to start. On the Mon 10th November we took her into the practice to see if pup was ok my dog seemed well in herself. Myron examined her was asking me about mating dates etc. he did an internal examination which revealed the placenta had come away and pup was probably dead and he'd have to open our dog up as he put it !!!!! We were obviously devasted and still are . The only thing I do thank Myron for is successfully performing the C section without complications as my little dog could have also died . 🚩Well most dogs don't have complications scans can be wrong 🚩well my dog did have complications and scans were right . So So sad she had to have C section only to remove dead pup where I feel if more care had been taken on my visit the previous week and I'd been listened to a bit more and perhaps had been told to make another appointment to monitor the situation this could have been avoided ( although Myron now says that i was told to phone practice if I was worried this is just the point I wasn't worried as this was not a normal situation but it had been clearly predicted by the lady who performed the scans for me I just don't know how Myron didn't pick up also on this . Devasted doesn't come close . I don't suppose the village vets are bothered as they have plenty of other clients. Also Myron has said I also had time to source another vet if I wasn't happy with what he'd said I didn't think I needed another vet as I trusted his judgement at that point. I really wouldn't have thought I'd needed another vet as he's got tons of experience i even thought the scan lady might be wrong as he's the vet and more qualified. Such a sad and devasting experience 😢 after using him for many years we feel so let down .

Best vets in Cramlington. Very knowledgeable vet and got my dog better a lot quicker than my old vets across the road!

First visit here for Lara after recommendations. What a lovely practice vet was great with my nervous dog and took time to explain medication . Totally different experience than going to a franchise vets that are just out for one thing. 5⭐ well deserved
