Treats:

ANCU Veterinary Surgery appears to run as part of a multi-branch practice under the ANCU Vets name (the website lists more than one clinic), and it offers practical admin features like repeat-prescription ordering. Reviews describe both routine and urgent care: one owner brought in a dog struggling in labour on a Saturday morning and reports the vet identified a life-threatening risk (“moments away from a uterus rupture”), treated the dog and provided aftercare advice. Owners also mention staff handling very nervous, anxious puppies with care.

Garden Lodge Veterinary Clinic offers general pet veterinary care and mentions emergency care on its website (without specific arrangements described). One review notes the practice is “sistered with Rathgael Vets” (suggesting a linked practice rather than a stand‑alone single site). Recent reviews describe a mix of routine preventive work (a “cat health screen” described as quick, efficient and thorough) and more emotionally difficult appointments (end‑of‑life care for a dog), with owners repeatedly highlighting calm handling and reassurance.

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.

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.

  • The only written comment (posted twice by the same reviewer) says the vet “always keeps our ponies right,” suggesting repeat use and satisfaction with outcomes for ponies. - Other 5-star ratings are present but without written detail, so there’s limited information on specific visits, procedures, or communication.

Crossmaglen Vets is a veterinary clinic with limited public detail available beyond customer reviews. From those reviews, it appears set up to handle both routine consultations (“great advice”) and more hands-on cases that may involve keeping animals in for care (a dog staying at the clinic, with the owner receiving updates). Owners specifically mention staff keeping them informed while a pet was staying in, and one review describes a vet (“Pat”) saving a lamb’s life.
