Clinic Overview

Wern Veterinary Surgeons is a multi-species practice, treating small animals as well as farm animals, birds/poultry and equines, with an in-house lab and a stated 24‑hour emergency service for registered animals (with an additional out‑of‑hours call‑out charge). Recent reviewers repeatedly describe being seen quickly for urgent problems—examples include a same‑day appointment and another case seen within half an hour of calling. Written reviews also mention treatment for a suspected urinary/water infection (medication supplied) and a hen with an impacted crop whose life was saved. One older review raises a communication gap around puppy vaccination side effects (they wanted clearer written guidance), though that reviewer also noted the on‑call vet phoned back and checked in again later that evening.

Reviews

Google rating: 4.8 stars from 54 reviews. The - Fast access for urgent problems, with multiple reports of being seen the same day (including one within ~30 minutes of calling).

  • Clear outcomes described in specific cases, including medication provided for a suspected urinary/water infection and successful treatment of a hen with an impacted crop.
  • Organisation and helpful front desk mentioned alongside “knowledgeable” clinical staff.
