Milfeddygon Bodrwnsiwn Veterinary Group is a mixed practice (small animals, farm animals and horses) that’s been operating since the 1900s. The practice website states it provides 24/7 emergency support for farm and equine work, and it’s also listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. From the latest reviews, owners often mention practical preventive-care support (for example, reminders for worming and flea treatments) and routine appointments such as annual vaccinations with a full check. There’s also specific praise for staff suggesting “free/cheap alternatives” to practice medications where possible. A smaller number of reviews describe problems when pets became seriously unwell (one owner felt a limp was assessed too briefly and a fever wasn’t picked up) and administrative issues (medication not being ready as arranged and an invoice disputed as an overcharge).

Williams Veterinary Surgeons is a veterinary practice that also operates as a veterinary nurse training facility. From the latest reviews, it appears set up for both routine appointments and sensitive, end-of-life care, with several owners describing clear decision-making and practical support. Concrete examples mentioned include: - Home visits for pets whose owners can’t travel (one review describes a home examination for a very elderly greyhound, including a blood test and follow-up reassurance). - Euthanasia with personalised arrangements, including time for owners to say goodbye in their own way (e.g., being allowed to play music and have a private farewell). - Cremation coordination and return of ashes, with one owner noting a casket and a condolence card sent afterwards. - Conservative clinical decisions when appropriate, such as advising against a dental operation when a broken tooth/root area was healing and surgery wasn’t needed.

E Barbour-Hill appears to be an independent veterinary practice (one long-term client contrasts it with “corporate” clinics and values seeing the same vet each visit). Based on both the clinic data and multiple owner accounts, it seems especially set up for dental work: several reviews describe complex tooth-saving treatment where other vets had recommended extraction. Owners also mention clear explanations before procedures and strong aftercare, including being “pleasantly surprised by the bill” (no specific prices given). The clinic also lists emergency veterinary services (24/7 or extended hours). Concrete specifics owners mention: - Tooth-saving dental treatment (e.g., a tooth saved that another vet said would need extracting). - Repair work for broken canine teeth (one owner says three canine teeth were fixed and saved). - Surgery with careful handling of nervous/smaller dogs (one mentions their dachshund’s surgery). - “Exceptional” aftercare mentioned after dental work.

Wern Vets is set up to treat a broad mix of animals—small pets as well as farm animals, birds/poultry, and equines—based on its own service list. It also states it offers a 24-hour emergency service for animals registered with the practice (with an additional out‑of‑hours call‑out charge) and has an in‑house laboratory. From the latest written reviews available to us, owners describe: - fast access for urgent small‑animal needs (“seen within an hour” after a call), including end‑of‑life care for an elderly cat - thoughtful handling around euthanasia, including returning the pet in a crocheted blanket - farm-animal advice and service being a clear reason some clients choose the practice One review conflicts with the clinic’s stated scope, saying they “only did farm animals” when the reviewer needed help for a cat.

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.

Milfeddygon Dolgellau CYF
Dolgellau
Milfeddygon Dolgellau CYF is an independent veterinary practice (established over 100 years ago) that treats both companion animals and farm animals, and states it provides a 24-hour emergency service staffed by its own team. The clinic appears set up for a mix of routine care and more involved diagnostics and procedures: the website lists digital X‑rays, ultrasound, and in‑house lab testing, alongside surgery such as neutering and lump removals. Recent reviews include detailed emergency care examples (bloat/“GDV”-type presentation treated with X‑rays, stomach tubing attempts, and then surgery). Reviews also flag a sharp contrast between compassionate clinical care in end‑of‑life situations and a negative experience around payment-plan refusal after an out‑of‑hours euthanasia; one review also mentions the practice having “no emergency facilities at the moment due to refurbishment.”
