Pricing
Published prices suggest the clinic sits above average, based on a partial sample of comparable services. Review feedback on cost is mixed but leans negative in recent comments, with complaints about a £57.50 follow-up check not being made clear in advance and one owner describing a dental quote of around £2,000 for two small dogs as too expensive.
