Reviews describe a small-practice feel with consistent emphasis on clear explanations and reassurance during visits.

Maes Glas Vets Limited is a veterinary clinic with an on-site operating theatre (with monitored anaesthetics), “hospital standard” kennels, and in-house diagnostics including radiography, ultrasound scanning, blood testing and microscopy. The practice also operates as a veterinary nurse training facility. From the latest reviews available to us, experiences are mixed but mostly positive: several owners describe supportive handling at difficult moments (including being able to see a pet “one last chance” before they passed) and smooth routine visits (vaccination and microchipping for a puppy). However, a small number of recent reviews raise serious concerns about consultation approach—one describes repeated attempts to vaccinate an unsettled puppy, and another complains about feeling dismissed when seeking help and about the professionalism/accuracy of written paperwork after a complaint.
