Recent reviews paint a mixed picture: several owners describe quick access for urgent problems (including being seen within hours for a dog with digestive issues and receiving an anti‑sickness injection), and good recovery after a cat procedure. However, a small number of recent 1‑star reviews describe serious concerns, including a kitten health check they felt lasted only minutes with minimal examination, and a separate complaint alleging missed diagnosis and ignored complaints—so experiences appear inconsistent.
