Our Score (76/100)
Valued Pets Veterinary Practice Ltd is an independently run practice (opened August 2022). The clinic’s own information lists everything from routine care (vaccines, microchipping, nail clips) through to dental work and complex surgery, plus home visits and animal health certificates for travel. In the latest reviews available to us, owners most often describe calm handling during appointments and detailed explanations, alongside specific examples such as emergency-level dental surgery with a late finish so a dog could go home the same day, and being offered a home visit for end-of-life care. One recent review strongly disputes this experience, describing a judgemental consultation about diet and an older dog’s arthritis.
