Ark Veterinary Centre Limited is an employee-owned, independent five-centre mixed practice. Based on its own service descriptions, it’s set up for both everyday pet care and more complex work across small animals, equine, and farm animals, with in-house diagnostics plus surgical and hospitalisation facilities. Recent reviews back up that range with specific examples including treatment for a dog with stomach cancer, a surgical operation with “before, during and after” care, urgent stitches after an attack where the pet was seen “nearly straight away,” and an emergency fish-hook removal from a dog’s throat.

Fiona Dalgliesh Veterinary Services is presented under an individual vet’s name, with no corporate group mentioned in the available information (the only listed web presence is a Facebook page). Reviews most often point to large-animal work: one owner specifically describes sending a young colt for castration due to a retained testicle and collecting him “a few days later” with an uncomplicated recovery. Other reviewers describe the vet as calm and empathetic, and mention receiving practical animal advice.
