Vets in Ceredigion | Wales Veterinary Directory

Ystwyth Veterinary Practice Limited describes itself as an independent, family-run mixed practice with a 12-vet team, supported by qualified and trainee veterinary nurses, and it is an RCVS Practice Standards Practice. It appears set up for both everyday pet care and more involved cases, with the website listing orthopaedics/soft tissue surgery, laparoscopy, physiotherapy, and an in-house surgical referral service. Reviews repeatedly mention urgent cases being seen quickly, including same-day appointments and emergency visits with minimal waiting, plus out-of-hours updates (one owner reports a call at 11pm after an overnight stay). Owners with nervous or reactive dogs also describe the team going slowly and adapting handling, including during a laparoscopic spay.

Priory Vets Cardigan is a small-animal practice that reviewers describe using for urgent same-day problems (ear infections, an ear haematoma) as well as routine checks. Recent reviews repeatedly mention fast access for urgent cases (seen “within 2 hours” in one case; same-day in another), calm handling for stressed dogs, and at least one instance of a follow-up call after treatment. Pricing and safety get mixed feedback: multiple reviewers appreciate being told costs up front, while others describe it as “far too expensive,” cite a medication dosage mistake, and raise concerns about the distance to the current out-of-hours emergency provider.

Cambrian Vets is a veterinary practice that also acts as a veterinary nurse training facility. From the available reviews, it appears set up to handle both routine care and higher-need medical cases: owners describe support with long-term diabetes management (including teaching insulin injections and providing prescriptions), as well as very rapid out‑of‑hours help for an injured dog. One detailed account also describes around‑the‑clock inpatient care during a serious diabetic complication, with medication given every two hours through the night, and a later at‑home euthanasia visit described as peaceful and respectful.

Tysul Vets is a veterinary practice offering emergency care (including out-of-hours) and is listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. Recent reviews repeatedly describe fast access for urgent problems (for example, an emergency appointment arranged after a dog was stung on the paw and couldn’t bear weight), calm handling during assessments (“without causing distress or discomfort”), and support around end-of-life decisions (including rearranging appointments to come out to a family, followed by a condolence card).

Steffan Veterinary Services is a mixed-practice clinic (small animals, equine and farm animals) that’s been established since the 1950s. The clinic describes facilities including separate kennels, an isolation area, and advanced lab capabilities, and it is listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. From the latest reviews available, owners most often mention getting seen quickly for urgent problems (including dog-bite injuries) and vets explaining diagnoses and treatment options “clearly and without pressure,” with follow-up communication after an emergency visit. A minority of reviews raise serious concerns about pain during anal-gland examinations, delays/mixed messages around whether biopsies could be done in-house, and complaints about consultation/prescription charges.
