  • Access and responsiveness: a reviewer mentions quick appointment availability; another valued that the practice covers its own out-of-hours. - Out-of-hours support can be very good, but not consistently: one owner reports effective late-night guidance by phone; another reports an out-of-hours call handled rudely, including being hung up on. - Handling and admin issues raised by a minority of reviewers: one report of a nail clip leading to a bleeding paw and history notes from a previous vet being lost.
