Priory Close Veterinary Practice is an independent small-animal clinic (the website says it’s been caring for pets for over 35 years) and is set up for everyday primary-care vet work plus urgent same-day problems. Owners repeatedly mention being offered same-day appointments for unwell pets, and several reviews describe clear, practical treatment given quickly (for example, a dog treated within ~20 minutes of eating a raisin with an injection to induce vomiting, and a cat given three injections and improving within 12 hours). The practice is also RCVS-approved for training small animal nurses (per the website).
