Avondale Veterinary Group provides routine and emergency care for small animals and equine, with on-site equine facilities for hospitalisation and intensive care (including intensive care). The website also references farm work, and notes the practice has operated since 1921 from purpose-built premises opened in 2009. Reviews most often describe clear communication and flexibility around appointments (including rescheduling when a cat wouldn’t go into a carrier), plus gentle handling in sensitive situations (including end-of-life care). The practice website also states it works with Thistle Referral services as a “group partner.”

Elite Vet Group is an independent veterinary clinic (no corporate group named in the available information) offering a broad mix of preventative care, medical workups and surgery, with in-house diagnostics (lab work, X‑ray and ultrasound). The website lists emergency vet services, and reviews describe the team stepping in immediately for an emergency even when they were only open for another procedure at the time. Owners also repeatedly mention clear explanations before procedures, including allowing an owner to be present to comfort their pet as anaesthetic was given. Surgical problem-solving comes up in reviews, including a dog with a “corkscrew tail and skin pocket” with severe infections where owners say the clinic helped avoid euthanasia.

The limited written review content available simply describes it as an “Independent Large Animal Practice.”
