Clinic Overview

Towy Vets is a CVS-owned veterinary practice in Carmarthen offering routine appointments, surgery, and emergency or extended-hours care. Feedback is mixed: many long-term clients describe friendly, thorough care and strong follow-up, while a small number of reviewers report serious dissatisfaction around repeated fees during an acute case and the handling of a distressing situation. Recent praise includes successful eye and intestinal surgery for one young dog and warm mentions of several vets, nurses, and reception staff.
