Greenmount Veterinary Clinic

Greenmount Veterinary Clinic also operates as VetOrtho Referrals, with a focus on orthopaedic and spinal referral work for cats and dogs. The clinic highlights fracture repair as a common procedure and treats spinal disc prolapse (“slipped disc”) as an urgent condition, with rapid progression to imaging and decompressive surgery where needed, followed by nursing and physiotherapy support. Recent feedback continues to point to strong experiences with spinal surgery outcomes and compassionate end-of-life care, alongside some concerns about reception interactions and price consistency.

Pricing

A very limited amount of published pricing suggests the clinic may sit above average, but this is based on very few comparable services. One review describes a dental cleaning quote changing from £120 to £218 when booking several weeks later, while another reviewer describes the clinic’s prices as reasonable. A spinal surgery review also mentions avoiding more than £2,000 in MRI fees, though that reflects one owner’s experience rather than a standard published charge.
