Boundary Veterinary Centre is an RCVS-accredited practice that’s also cat- and dog-friendly accredited, with separate waiting areas for cats and dogs. The clinic advertises 30‑minute consultations for new clients and runs a preventative care scheme called the Pet Health For Life Plan. From the latest reviews available to us, owners most often describe: - Fast access to appointments, including being fitted in “straight away” and within half an hour of calling (including close to Christmas). - Routine procedures and aftercare, such as a kitten being spayed and microchipped, with flexibility around collection times. - Clear, step-by-step explanations and options, including for an elderly cat with ongoing health problems. - A setup that’s easier for carriers, with an automatic front door mentioned. The website states the practice handles cats and dogs; at least one recent review describes care for an unwell rabbit, suggesting some non-cat/dog cases may be seen.

Based on the information available, it’s set up for routine appointments (for example annual vaccinations are mentioned) and can arrange overnight emergency care via one of Medivet’s 24-hour centres.

The Brook Veterinary Surgery offers general veterinary care with an in-house laboratory and dispensary, and is listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. It’s also listed as providing emergency veterinary services (24/7 or extended hours). From the latest reviews, the clinic is repeatedly described as particularly good with anxious/nervous dogs—owners mention staff taking their time, avoiding a rushed feel, and helping pets settle. Another owner describes a cat’s surgery day with regular updates throughout the day, including how the patient was doing. One review also mentions the practice referring a dog to a specialist orthopaedics team when needed. A single detailed negative review describes a serious breakdown around microchip/record matching and clinical record timestamps, with the owner disputing the practice’s decision-making when an injured cat was brought in and later euthanised.

Abingdon Vets4Pets Ltd is a Vets4Pets-branded practice and a veterinary nurse training facility. The clinic describes itself as modern and well-equipped, with an in-house laboratory and pharmacy, plus digital x‑ray and ultrasound, alongside hospital and isolation facilities. From the latest reviews available, owners most often describe clear communication around urgent or high-stress situations (including emergency surgery and euthanasia), and continuity of care (for example, the same vet handling a procedure and the post‑op check). There are also isolated but serious complaints about clinical decision-making during labour (refusal to give oxytocin leading to an emergency caesarean and loss of puppies) and a separate complaint about billing/data mix-ups involving letters and calls for an account the reviewer says wasn’t theirs. Out-of-hours emergency care is stated on the website as being provided by another veterinary surgery.
