Beacon VetCare offers emergency veterinary services (noted as 24/7 or extended-hours cover) alongside routine appointments. In the latest reviews, owners repeatedly describe appointments that feel unhurried—several mention being listened to and having “next steps” talked through, which mattered particularly for anxious cat owners. Practical experience signals include reports of short waiting times for appointments, but also at least one report of a long wait for serious test results.

Rock View Veterinary Surgery is used for a mix of routine and ill-pet care, with reviews mentioning cat neutering/spaying, dog support, and even treatment of an elderly rescue hen. Several owners describe reassuring, gentle handling (for example, a vet talking to a nervous hen during the exam), while others report serious concerns about communication and clinical aftercare—particularly around a kitten being sent home soon after spaying while still unsteady, with glue on the abdomen and an infection developing afterward. A few reviews also raise non-clinical issues, including disagreements about finances/payment plans and a complaint alleging outside welfare involvement after choosing another provider.
