Penmellyn Veterinary Group Ltd is a multi-vet practice that also operates as a veterinary nurse training facility. From its website, it offers care for pets and equine patients, runs a Pet Health Plan, and promotes free health checks plus wellness screening priced at £60. Reviewers most often mention being able to get appointments quickly and, for some, long-term continuity with a specific vet (Jason is repeatedly named). However, a smaller set of recent reviews describe problems around cost transparency and communication—examples include being given additional products without full cost discussion, delays in receiving test results, and feeling rushed due to a 15‑minute appointment limit.

Our Score (78/100)
Cornwall Animal Hospital describes itself as a charity-based veterinary clinic aimed at helping pet owners who can’t afford private fees in full, with support also offered at the clinic’s discretion for people on low incomes. It is Vetsure-accredited and is set up with in-house facilities including operating theatres, a laboratory, recovery room, hydrotherapy pool, therapy rooms, and a separate cat waiting/consulting room. Reviews are mixed but include specific accounts of vets taking a “clear-headed” approach to complex problems (one owner mentions brucella canis advice elsewhere that they felt was inappropriate), alongside complaints about poor communication and a reported missed diagnosis in a cat.
