Axe Valley Veterinary Practice Ltd

No corporate group affiliation is mentioned in the available information. Reviews describe a small team where owners repeatedly highlight calm, thorough consultations and practical decision-making—especially for anxious dogs and longer-running problems (for example, a “huge” ear issue discussed in detail with treatment options explained).

Based on what clients describe, the practice seems set up for

• •Routine preventative care (puppy vaccination course is specifically mentioned).
• •Ongoing medical problem management (ear problems; follow-up consultations).
• •Support through serious illness, including end-of-life care (owners mention being guided through a cancer diagnosis that later ended in the loss of a pet).
• •Surgical procedures via a separate site used for operations (mentioned by one reviewer).

Concrete specifics owners mention include: vets taking extra time to keep a nervous dog calm during the consult, clearly explaining outcomes and options, and providing opportunities for puppy socialisation during a vaccination visit (meeting other dogs and young kittens when the clinic was quiet).

Services

Services and situations explicitly mentioned in the available reviews include

• •Vet consultations, including “further”/follow-up consultations.
• •Puppy vaccinations (part two of a vaccination course is described).
• •Ear problem assessment and treatment planning (a “huge problem” with a dog’s ears discussed with a vet).
• •Cancer-care support (guidance through diagnosis, ongoing support).
• •End-of-life support (a pet’s passing is referenced in the context of the team helping the owner through the process).
• •Operations/surgery carried out at another site used by the practice for procedures (named in a review, but details of procedures aren’t specified).

People

• •Jo (vet): Mentioned multiple times. Owners describe Jo adapting the consultation for a very nervous dog—keeping the dog calm and reassured—and explaining the outcome “extremely well.” Another reviewer says Jo has been consistently professional over time.
• •Dave (vet): Described by one owner as calm and kind with a giant-breed dog, taking time to talk through a complex ear problem and sharing “all the information.” The same reviewer explicitly felt decisions were made with the dog’s best interests in mind rather than “profit driven.”
• •Liz (reception): Mentioned as welcoming and friendly.
