Abbey Veterinary Group

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.

Concrete specifics mentioned by owners include puppies being vaccinated and microchipped, a booster plus kennel cough visit with an itemised total mentioned, and an emergency post-immunisation check where a “full, thorough examination” was done immediately.

• •Preventive care is commonly referenced (puppy vaccinations, microchipping, boosters and kennel cough).
• •Several owners describe friendly interactions across both reception and clinical staff, and mention pets being comfortable attending (e.g., dogs “aren’t nervous”).
• •Responsiveness for urgent needs is reported in at least one case: an owner says their dog was told to come in immediately after immunisation and was examined straight away, including being seen when the practice “should have been closed.”
• •Conflicting experiences around emergency access: one reviewer alleges they were refused help for a toxic ingestion because their cat wasn’t registered, while the clinic website states it offers 24/7 in-house emergency care for small animals.
• •Pricing perceptions vary: one reviewer calls the practice “reasonably priced,” while another felt the booster/kennel cough visit (£135) was expensive and said they would look elsewhere.
