The Shepton Veterinary Group Limited
Shepton Mallet
The Shepton Veterinary Group Limited is a general veterinary practice that also offers emergency veterinary services (24/7 or extended hours) and is listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. In the latest reviews available to us, multiple owners describe it as not part of a corporate group (this is stated by reviewers, not independently verified) and give concrete examples of support across different case types—such as repeat health checks for an orphaned 3‑week‑old kitten, end‑of‑life care for a rabbit, and efforts to investigate a dog’s severe, unexplained pain. Several reviews also mention staff taking time to explain what’s happening in a reassuring way, and one owner notes the team “kept an eye on the bill” during a complex illness.

Orchard Vets is described on its website as a proudly independent practice with in-house emergency care 24/7 provided by its own vets. The clinic highlights on-site facilities including an own laboratory, sterile operating theatres, and state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment. In the latest reviews, owners frequently mention surgical care with structured follow-up (including post-op appointments and phone calls), support around emergencies, and end-of-life care—alongside one sharply negative account describing a billing dispute that escalated to debt collection and court. Concrete examples mentioned by owners include: dental extractions for a cat with pre-op and post-op care; post-surgery follow-ups and phone check-ins reportedly included in the surgery price (one reviewer); and help with insurance claims.

Medivet Somerton is part of the Medivet group (not an independent practice). It offers routine appointments and appears set up to handle same-day urgent problems too—one reviewer describes rushing in with an emergency that was dealt with professionally, and another says their dog with an “upset tummy” was seen quickly and recovered after the visit. The clinic also advertises 24‑hour emergency care (with a stated overnight consultation fee), and it’s listed as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility. Owners mention practical decision points like a free new‑puppy check and being put on a pet plan that “saved money.”

Ownership (independent vs corporate group) isn’t stated in the information provided.

Kingfisher Veterinary Practice is a multi-branch practice (a reviewer refers to it as a “business of four practices”) that offers out-of-hours emergency care and routine in-practice appointments, with options for structured preventative care via a Pet Health Club® Plus plan (consultations included, price not stated). Reviews describe both everyday care (nervous cats settling once inside; dogs given a small biscuit) and more complex/sensitive situations such as surgery for an elderly dog and end-of-life support, including keepsakes after euthanasia. Feedback is mixed on administrative/communication handling: some owners mention condolence cards and staying in touch after a loss, while one review describes a lack of sympathy and repeated calls/texts during a cremation/insurance query.

Golden Valley Vets describes itself as offering both routine preventative care and more advanced work, including CT/MRI imaging, on-site diagnostic facilities, and surgical/dental capabilities. The website also states there is 24‑hour provision for emergency care. In the latest written reviews available to us, several owners describe empathetic support around end-of-life care and bereavement, and one owner specifically mentions their frightened cats being handled gently during microchipping and vaccination. There is also a serious negative review alleging poor advice and a lack of response to concerns, and referring to the practice as a “veterinary chain” (no group name is given).
