Glenbrae Veterinary Clinic

Glenbrae Veterinary Clinic is a long-established practice (reviewers mention using it for 25–30+ years) and is listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. The clinic also offers 24/7 access to an online vet through its Pet Health Club Plus plan (as described on its website). Recent reviews most often highlight staff taking time to explain care and work patiently with anxious pets (including a large, nervous dog who initially wouldn’t enter the building but has since attended twice), alongside one brief 1‑star review that provides no details.

Good veterinary practice in Dumbarton. Lovely staff. Plenty of parking adjacent to the premises. Charges on the high side.

I cannot reccommend this vets highly enough. So kind and caring to all the animals and their humans. Very professional, explaining everything as they go along and no hidden costs. The dogs pull US in, not vice versa. So happy we found this place. I'd actually give it 10 stars if it was an option. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Wonderful customer service as always, been coming to Glenbrae vets since they started over 30 years ago and despite the ownership changing a few years ago it has always remained first class Eleanor Bulloch

Overall very pleased with visit today. After relocating from England with a dog going through a long term treatment plan, transferring information over and giving history, my mind put to ease with my dogs treatment going forward. Great attention to detail and handled very professionally and amazing care to my dog. We were given the time needed which was above and beyond expectations.

The vets here really go out of their way to help their patients. My cat doesn't ever stress out going in & is very comfortable around the clinicians. After our visit yesterday, she is much happier, emptier & has her appetite back.
