Meadowbank Veterinary Centre

Meadowbank Veterinary Centre appears to operate as part of Village Vets (the clinic website and a recent client review both refer to “Village Vets”). Based on client accounts, the practice is frequently used for dentistry and surgery, with examples including a scale-and-polish with two tooth extractions and a recent spay, plus longer-term care that includes cancer operations and arthritis management (Librela injections and pain-relief discussion). The clinic also describes emergency contact arrangements on its website, and it’s listed as a veterinary nurse training facility.

Concrete examples owners mention include

• •A vet taking time during an unscheduled consult-style chat to discuss safe pain relief options for an arthritic dog.
• •Post-procedure follow-up, including a phone call after dental work and detailed aftercare explained by a nurse.
• •Handling of larger, strong breeds in a way that kept the dog calm.
• •Clean premises and staff who explain options clearly to support decision-making.
