Banbridge Pet Vets – Vets in Banbridge
Clinic Overview
Banbridge Pet Vets is a small-animal practice that is also listed as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility. Reviews describe the clinic as able to see new patients quickly (including same-day appointments on the day of registration) and to help with second-opinion cases, including a senior dog that an owner felt was “properly diagnosed” and treated promptly. Owners also mention fast test results and staff taking time to answer lots of questions. Experiences are mostly very positive, but there is one detailed account describing an appointment with a different vet as abrupt and not a thorough check, especially for a stressed cat in a dog-filled waiting area.

I can't put in to words how grateful I am to all of the veterinary staff for helping my senior dog so quickly and properly diagnosing her when I needed a second opinion. They treated her so quickly when I registered her here by letting me bring her on the day of registration. They've been totally amazing beyond words and so compassionate. She definitely seems more settled and content now after the treatment she needed. I honestly feel like they listened to me and saved her life. Thank you so much because although it's a busy practice, they still listen and have value for the needs of our beloved pets and put them first.

Definitely the best vets in Banbridge. We've been going to Pet vets for 16 years with our cat, Nimbus. They are always incredibly kind and gentle with her, particularly as she gets extremely anxious when we have to take her in. Test results are always super quick and the vets are extremely knowledgeable and very patient with my hundreds of questions. Jackie & Tiffany at reception are fantastic ladies and always incredibly helpful. We cannot recommend Pet Vets highly enough and we are always so grateful for their treatment of Nimbus.

My recent experience here was very negative and upsetting. But usually I have no problems taking my cat here. We normally see the vet called Andrew and unfortunately didn’t see him at our last visit. In my experience i felt the lady we had seen was lacking compassion and was abrupt. My cat did not feel at ease with her and was very scared already from being in the waiting area with dogs and waiting a while. I don’t think we were treated fairly and my experience was very distressing for myself. Especially when our pets are our family. I felt my cat didn’t properly get checked over and I the visit could have been handled better. I would expect a lot of cats to be nervous and vets would be trained to handle this. I 100% recommend Andrew. He’s so caring, compassionate and amazing with animals. He is so gentle and calming. My cat always feels so relaxed and they say animals can sense trust and he definitely does with Andrew. This is my opinion and my last experience was very disappointing. So this is why I am mentioning this as I don’t want this to happen to anyone else. I was told my cat is aggressive and badly behaved when he was actually scared.

Just moved town. My fur baby hurt himself and was squealing with pain. These guys saw him as a new patient ON THE DAY!!! Andrew, our vet, was brilliant with a very very nervous little Yorkie. I'm so glad I moved, just to have been exposed to a new vet service! Simply cannot recommend enough! Thank you sooo much!!
