Farm Vet Services focuses on farm-animal work, combining routine herd health tasks with 24-hour emergency on-call cover provided by its own vets. The website describes practical, on-farm services such as sick cow work-ups, fertility scanning, TB testing, and disease management, plus an in-house lab for worm/fluke egg counts and mastitis culture & sensitivity testing. It also runs a medicines ordering and delivery service; the only written review text available mentions “fast delivery,” aligning with the website’s delivery offering. The site also states vets will call back with tailored recommendations for prescription items, with “no obligation” and “no cost” for that call-back.

Corporate
Treats:

Vets Now is a corporate emergency-care provider (Vets Now) focused on out-of-hours treatment for small animals when regular practices are closed. Recent reviews describe pets being triaged and seen quickly (including “taken straight in with only a few minutes wait”), with reception sometimes greeting owners by name and providing calm support during emergencies. The clinic is repeatedly described as expensive for out-of-hours care, and experiences with staff professionalism are mixed: some owners highlight detailed explanations and clear options, while others report a lack of greeting/introductions during the visit.

Treats:

Carrickfergus Vets4Pets Ltd is a Vets4Pets practice that the website describes as locally owned and run by Kerensa Scott, established in 2011. Based on the clinic’s stated facilities (in‑house lab, imaging, operating theatre, isolation, separate dog/cat wards) it appears set up for routine consults plus on‑site diagnostics and surgery, rather than being a consult-only site. Decision-relevant specifics owners mention alongside those capabilities: - Euthanasia appointment experience is mixed: one owner describes a vet who “gave us time” and said there was “no hurry to leave,” but also reports abrupt/rude reception interactions around arrival and payment. - Billing clarity is disputed in one review: an invoice for £385 (described by the reviewer as covering cremation and drugs) was said to be unitemised, and the reviewer reports they didn’t receive an itemised breakdown after requesting it. - A “senior MOT” visit is described in one review as not thorough enough (the owner expected a full check, and reports their dog’s weight wasn’t checked).

Veterinary Nurse Training
Corporate
Treats:

Castle Veterinary Group is a veterinary practice that also operates as a veterinary nurse training facility. Based on the available information, it appears set up for both routine appointments and more complex medical and surgical cases: reviewers describe diagnosis and successful surgery for a splenic mass following a vestibular event, and inpatient hospital care for a seriously ill cat with owner visits allowed. Communication and decision-making support are repeatedly mentioned (for example, a vet taking time to answer questions so owners could make an informed decision), alongside a long-term relationship with some clients over many years. One recent review describes a serious administrative and wait-time failure (an appointment not recorded and a long wait for a vaccination), which contrasts with the otherwise strongly positive feedback.

Treats:

Armadale NI Ltd is a veterinary practice that is also a veterinary nurse training facility. Based on recent reviews, it appears set up for a mix of routine care and surgical/urgent cases: owners mention puppy vaccinations, pyometra surgery, and at least one urgent call-out on a public holiday where a vet attended the clinic to treat a cat. Feedback is mixed. Several owners describe clear explanations and compassionate end-of-life care (including helping a long-term client say goodbye “with dignity and compassion”). However, a small number of reviews report serious concerns about post-procedure wound handling and aftercare advice (including a cat whose wound reportedly re-opened after stitches were removed), and one vaccination visit where the vet was described as having poor bedside manner.

Glenburn Veterinary Surgeons is a small-animal practice where recent reviewers most often describe clear explanations of diagnoses/medication and gentle handling during exams. A “pet plan” is mentioned by one owner, and routine procedures such as spaying are described, including a follow-up appointment after surgery. Reviews are not entirely consistent: alongside multiple reports of thorough exams and good communication, one reviewer says a six‑month check felt limited (weigh-in plus a brief look at a tail cut) and was unhappy with the cost. Concrete specifics mentioned by owners include: - Spaying with a “small, neat incision” and a follow-up appointment afterwards. - Vets giving a “full explanation” of a dog’s condition and prescribed medication. - Careful, gentle handling of a cat during procedures/exams. - A complaint that a check-up did not include checks of ears/eyes/paws/hips.

Hillsborough Veterinary Referrals describes itself (via its website) as a specialist-led, multidisciplinary small animal veterinary referral hospital. In the latest reviews available to us, owners most often describe referral-level surgery and case management, including BOAS surgery, orthopaedic surgery for a broken leg, and a case involving paralysis where a scan was done and immediate surgery was recommended. Several reviews mention structured communication after procedures (for example, phone calls multiple times per day during a 10‑day inpatient stay, plus texts/calls after discharge), and practical admin support such as help with insurance claims. One repeat reviewer reports a very different experience—saying only euthanasia was offered and that their visit was later disputed—so experiences appear to vary.

Fairgreen Veterinary Centre’s ownership/group isn’t stated in the information available to us. Based on the latest reviews, it appears set up for routine pet care for cats and dogs, with owners mentioning health-check style visits (“MOT”), practical advice, and neutering for cats. Reviewers repeatedly point to thorough examinations and staff who handle pets calmly (e.g., one owner said their dog was given “lots of advice” alongside a full check).

Riada Veterinary Clinic treats both pets and farm animals and is set up for in-house diagnostics and surgery, with facilities listed including X‑ray (automated developing), ultrasound scanning, an in-house blood chemistry analyser, a dedicated operating theatre, and isolation facilities. The clinic states it provides a 24‑hour emergency service and will travel within a 20‑mile radius for emergency call-outs. In the latest reviews available to us, owners frequently mention being able to get help “any time of day or night,” and describe staff taking extra steps to settle nervous dogs (including offering food/treats during visits). There is also a contrasting review describing poor receptionist communication and an upsetting phone interaction.

Fairhill Veterinary Centre is a small-animal practice described by reviewers as combining “old fashioned courtesy and kindness” with “modern, highly professional treatments.” The most concrete examples owners mention include handling anxious dogs patiently during vaccinations (waiting until the dog was ready before examining and injecting), humane end-of-life care including arranging cremation transport, and being able to get appointments quickly. A few reviewers also mention costs being “reasonable” and payment being straightforward, though no prices are given.
