Southill Vets Ltd describes itself as a long-established independent veterinary practice, and reviewers echo that independence—one specifically notes the clinic runs its own after-hours service rather than outsourcing it. Based on the website and reviews, it appears set up for both routine care and more complex needs, including surgical treatments with specialist referrals and 24-hour emergency care delivered by the clinic’s own team. Owners also mention practical, day-to-day touches such as a separate waiting area for cats and dogs, and help with worming for travel and signing a pet passport for a visiting dog.
