Clinic Overview

Village Veterinary Surgery describes itself (via a recent reviewer) as an independent practice, and it appears set up for both routine care and urgent same-day problems, including late weeknight availability. Recent reviews include a case where a dog with a fish hook caught in the cheek was seen immediately, sedated, and the hook removed within about half an hour, with the team staying after hours until the dog had recovered enough to leave and phoning the next morning with advice and reassurance. Other owners mention same-day first appointments and vets discussing specific problems such as a dog’s eye condition.

Services

  • Urgent care / emergencies with extended-hours access (a reviewer reports being able to come straight in late on a weeknight for an injury; the dog was sedated and treated promptly).
  • Sedation for procedures (used to safely remove a fish hook lodged in a dog’s cheek).
  • General consultations (including assessment of a dog eye condition mentioned in a review).
  • Prescriptions provided for external pharmacies (one reviewer notes the clinic will provide scripts so owners can buy flea and worm treatments online).
  • Veterinary Nurse training facility (listed in the structured clinic data).

People

  • Kobi / “Kobe” (vet): named in multiple reviews. Owners mention Kobi being “brilliant” with dogs, and specifically being knowledgeable about an eye condition and helping an owner feel reassured.
  • Reception team and wider staff: several reviews describe being seen promptly, staff being welcoming at first visit, and good support “from reception through to nurses and vets.” One urgent-care review highlights the team waiting after hours for a sedated dog to recover enough to go home, plus next-day follow-up advice.

Reviews
