Daleside Veterinary Group
Wrexham
Our Score (83/100)
Daleside Veterinary Group describes itself as an independent practice, with both pet care and a dedicated farm livestock team. From the website and recent reviews, it appears set up for a mix of routine preventative care and more specialist options—owners specifically mention acupuncture for arthritis/mobility issues, and the site lists laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery and a pet blood bank. Review details also point to practical strengths such as being able to get appointments without much trouble and compassionate support around end‑of‑life care (one owner thanks staff for making euthanasia “peaceful” and for a vet coming in to say goodbye). A couple of owners also mention the practice not pushing pet insurance and trying to be cost‑effective, while one review flags that the waiting room layout can be difficult for reactive dogs because of close passing space.
