Johnston & Farrell describes itself as a modern, well‑equipped veterinary practice offering 24‑hour emergency care and home visits. Recent reviews frequently mention out‑of‑hours support that results in same‑day assessment and in‑clinic monitoring, including diagnostics such as blood tests and scans and treatment like a saline drip. One review also highlights a vet described as “supportive” and “honest.” Alongside the many positive experiences, there is also a 1‑star review with no written details, so the reason for dissatisfaction isn’t clear from the latest text we have.

In the latest reviews available to us, owners repeatedly mention staff taking time to explain options (including a “very detailed consultation”), and one review describes ongoing support for a dog with mobility issues. There is also a sharp conflict in feedback: one reviewer reports a rude phone interaction and says they were quoted an £85 consultation fee because they hadn’t been before.

Conanvet has limited public detail available beyond Google reviews. From the latest written review we have, the clinic provided prompt telephone help for a dog that was “under the weather,” with the receptionist described as “really helpful” and able to give “great advice.” The written feedback available to us focuses on front-desk communication and guidance rather than in-clinic procedures or specific treatments.
