From the latest written reviews available to us, owners most often mention that the team turn up when needed and that vets can be thorough (one review specifically names David for a detailed service). There is also some mixed/unclear feedback in the reviews: a few reviewers talk about dogs and a fenced area to run dogs off-lead, which doesn’t obviously align with the clinic’s equine focus as described on its website.

Friars Moor Veterinary Clinic Ltd provides routine appointments as well as emergency/urgent care, including out‑of‑hours help and emergency surgery (one review describes life‑saving surgery after a referral for a dog that had eaten stones). Reviews also describe practical handling strategies for anxious or large dogs—for example, nurses giving pre‑visit medication at the car and using a dark room for sedation, with progress updates during the stay. At the same time, there are conflicting reports: one owner says an out‑of‑hours visit felt expensive and the examination was not thorough, and another complains about restraint during a vaccination (naming a vet as “Felicity”).
