Larkmead Veterinary Group Ltd describes itself as an independent practice providing 24/7 emergency cover and care for pets as well as farm animals, pigs and equines. Recent reviews add some practical detail on what that looks like day-to-day: owners mention surgery with follow-up checks, support through end-of-life care, and help for anxious pets via confidence classes. One review also specifically highlights an avian vet (Dan) treating a cockatiel with a deformed beak.

Didcot Vets for Pets is a purpose-built practice on the Vets4Pets network, with modern facilities listed on its website (including an in-house laboratory, operating theatre, and separated dog/cat wards with isolation units). Recent reviews consistently describe calm, friendly consultations where pets are reassured during examinations, and owners get clear explanations—one owner specifically mentions detailed education about treatment for a French Bulldog (“Frenchie”). Appointments mentioned in reviews include routine cat vaccination/health checks and a prompt visit for a dog’s leg problem. Out-of-hours information is mixed: one data source lists emergency veterinary services, while the practice website says out-of-hours emergencies should be directed to another named veterinary surgery.

Abivale Veterinary Group offers routine consultations (including via a Pet Health Club® Plus plan) and states it provides 24‑hour emergency care. It is also listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. Reviews most often describe a professional, reassuring experience, with specific mentions of being good with cats, a vet who took time to listen during consultations, and at least one appointment with an “exotics” vet for a hedgehog where the owner felt well-informed and not pressured into major decisions. One practical downside raised is that the waiting room can feel too small and stressful when busy. The practice also states it accepts payments via Klarna.
