University-affiliated farm animal practice operating under the University of Edinburgh name. From the available website extract, no specific services, species treated, facilities, emergency arrangements, or clinician details are stated, and we don’t have Google rating/review text to draw on—so it isn’t possible (from the data provided) to say what kinds of farm cases they routinely handle or what to expect in terms of appointment/service experience.

AB Europe Limited provides assisted breeding services for livestock (sheep and cattle), operating from purpose-built centres and offering options such as semen and embryo export. Reviews are mixed: some clients describe “fantastic service and expertise” and single out Alice and the team, while others report problems around communication and scheduling, and one detailed account raises animal-handling concerns during an embryo transfer appointment. A key decision point is that at least one reviewer says they were quoted a 60–70% embryo transfer success rate but later saw 0% success for their recipient ewes.
