Isle Valley Vets Ltd

Isle Valley Vets Ltd has been caring for pets since the 1970s and is described on its website as a gold level cat friendly practice. It’s also listed as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility. In the latest reviews available to us, owners most often describe thorough assessments and a team that helps pets (including nervous dogs) cope with visits—one review mentions using treats and a welcoming approach to settle a dog, and another highlights patience with a scared, reluctant Labrador. One reviewer also flags a potential downside: care can be very expensive, with payment demanded upfront even when insurance can be verified.
