Clinic Overview

Drumchapel Vets4Pets Ltd operates under the Vets4Pets brand and is described on its website as a locally owned practice. The clinic is set up for both routine care and on-site diagnostics, with a laboratory, pharmacy, digital x‑ray and ultrasound listed, plus separated dog & cat wards and an isolation unit.

In the latest reviews available to us, owners describe both straightforward medical/surgical care (for example, a cat’s paw wound stitched after skin was torn “almost to the bone,” with explanations before and after the operation) and walk-in help without an appointment (a dog assessed after a bee sting). Reviews also include serious complaints about record/communication errors (including an allegation of double-vaccination) and a report of a very short paid health check and a rude consultation.

  • Ian (vet, per reviews): mentioned positively for handling an urgent bee-sting visit efficiently and for accommodating an anxious rescue dog (owner says he “went out [of his] way” to help).
  • Amanda (front desk, per reviews): described as welcoming and helpful when an owner arrived without an appointment.
  • Alison/Allison (reception, per reviews): credited with helping make visits easier for an anxious rescue dog.
  • Lauren, Ryla, Katie (roles not specified, per reviews): mentioned by name as part of the team providing reassurance during frequent visits for a chronically ill cat.

Reviews

Google rating: 4.3 stars from 164 reviews.

  • Help with urgent problems and clear explanations: examples include a dog seen after a bee sting without an appointment, and a cat’s serious paw injury being stitched, with the procedure explained before and after.
  • Support for anxious or complex cases: one owner describes accommodations for a very anxious rescue dog; another describes sustained effort investigating a cat’s rare condition, including second opinions/research.
  • Front-desk experience is mixed: some reviews praise reception staff for making visits smooth; others report incorrect information, appointment mix-ups, and inconsistent answers.
  • Serious complaint about vaccination/records: one reviewer alleges their dog was double-vaccinated after staff did not confirm prior vaccination status, and says responsibility was later blamed between receptionist and vet.
  • Concerns about value and communication: one reviewer reports paying for a health check they felt was not carried out as described, and being quoted extra for further testing; another alleges the clinic raised health concerns later not confirmed elsewhere.
