Goshen Veterinary Centre is a small-animal practice that, based on reviews, handles routine care (vaccinations) as well as ongoing management of longer-term conditions. Several owners describe continuity of care (seeing the same vet each visit) as a standout, which they found helpful when managing a dog with a progressive disease. Reviews also mention vets taking time to explain diagnoses and keeping nervous dogs calm and comfortable during appointments. Feedback is mixed around front-desk interactions and access: multiple reviewers describe rude phone manner when asking about costs, and one review alleges their very unwell dog was refused treatment; others say it can be difficult to get appointments and that the practice has “rules” that aren’t bent.
