MBM Veterinary Group operates as a multi-branch veterinary practice (ownership group not stated) and is set up for both routine care and more involved cases, based on what owners describe in reviews. In the latest reviews, people repeatedly mention clear explanations during appointments and calm handling of nervous animals—examples include a kitten receiving injections “without even a cry,” and a long recovery after a road-traffic accident supported from emergency treatment through to full recovery over nearly six months. Reviews also reference advanced surgery for a persistent paw “corn,” and ongoing management of a cat’s skin allergy.

Armour Veterinary Group treats multiple species (pets, farm animals and horses) and, according to its website, runs its own out-of-hours service so animals are seen by their “own vet” day and night. Reviews mention routine preventive care (a dog booster visit) and dental surgery for dogs (including an extraction of 8 teeth). The latest reviews are largely positive about staff interactions and wait times, but there is also a detailed 1‑star account alleging a medication dosing error for a pregnant dog and a lack of apology when it was raised.

County Vets describes itself as a modern practice offering both farm and small‑animal care, with surgical and hospitalisation facilities and a wide stated species range (from cattle and sheep to dogs, cats and exotics). Reviews most often point to quick access to appointments for urgent problems (including being seen within an hour for a limping dog, and squeezed in within a couple of hours for an injured leg). Owners also mention specific hands-on care such as sedation to sort a claw issue and bandaging, in-home euthanasia visits “very respectful and helpful,” and grooming help for a matted cat coat (treats, de-matting and brushing).

Abbey Veterinary Group is a mixed practice offering care for pets as well as farm animals and horses, and the website states it has been operating for over a century. The clinic says it provides 24/7 in-house emergency care for small animals and a 24-hour mobile emergency service for large animals. Recent reviews include multiple routine preventive-care visits (vaccinations, microchipping, boosters/kennel cough) and one report of being “squeezed in” for an urgent same-day problem after immunisation—alongside a conflicting report from another reviewer who says they were refused emergency help because their cat wasn’t registered.
