Our Score (76/100)
Decision-relevant specifics owners mention
- •Same-day appointments are reported as available when needed; one reviewer also says they were seen “even on Saturdays,” which conflicts with the published opening hours showing the clinic closed Saturdays. - The building setup is mentioned: a spacious waiting area with separate areas for cats and dogs. - Practical help with non-registered cases is described (advising someone who found a lost cat to bring it in so they could help find the owner).

Piddle Valley Vets Ltd
Dorchester
Our Score (76/100)
Piddle Valley Vets Ltd is a general veterinary practice offering emergency veterinary services, with reviews describing both routine support (e.g., advice on probiotics and gastrointestinal diets) and end-of-life care (a vet and nurse carrying out an at-home euthanasia appointment and allowing the family as much time as needed). Recent feedback is mostly very positive, but there are also repeated 1‑star reviews alleging the practice refused to provide any care to a “rescue dog” due to a stated policy about contamination risk—so owners may want to clarify policies directly if this could apply to their pet.
