Bristol Imperial Vets4Pets Ltd is part of the Vets4Pets group (a national chain). From the information available, this practice is used for routine appointments and minor procedures (a nail trim and check-up are mentioned), as well as surgical work such as spays. Reviews include multiple mentions of specific vets (Ana and Gabriel) and describe both supportive end-of-life care and handling of anxious animals, alongside complaints about pricing and consent/communication around sedation and testing. Concrete details owners mention include: - Nail trims and check-ups for a nervous rescue cat, with the vet taking time to help the cat relax. - Spay booking where the procedure did not go ahead due to swollen teats, followed by sedation and a hormone test (with the owner saying this happened without consent). - A consultation described as a “3 minute conversation” for travel-sickness medication, with the owner saying notes were not shared between Vets4Pets sites.

Vets Now is part of the Vets Now emergency-care provider group (a UK-wide network treating small animals), and this clinic is set up primarily for out‑of‑hours and urgent cases rather than routine day-to-day vet care. Recent reviews repeatedly describe fast triage for emergencies (including a puppy described as “saved”), overnight hospital stays after surgery, and regular updates during treatment. Owners also mention a call-centre referral process and that vets explained options without pushing unnecessary procedures.

Victoria Veterinary Clinic is a small-animal practice established in 1981, treating dogs and cats. It offers routine care (vaccines, parasite control, microchipping) alongside in-practice procedures such as neutering and surgery, plus practical add-ons like nail clipping and home visits. In emergencies during normal hours, the practice advises owners to call for guidance; when closed, it directs out-of-hours care to MiNightVet (night/weekend emergency service with telephone advice and emergency consultations). From the latest reviews available, owners give concrete examples of: treatment for an ear problem caused by a grass seed, medication prescribed for a cat, and support for a very nervous elderly dog using calming medication to enable examination—along with repeated mentions of not being rushed during euthanasia and being allowed time with their pet.

Highcroft Veterinary Group – Ashton Veterinary Surgery is part of the Highcroft Veterinary Group and is set up as a small-animal practice offering routine care through to surgery, plus support for a wide range of species (including small pets, birds, reptiles, tortoises, poultry and fish). The practice states it has the RCVS Client Service Award – Outstanding and offers emergency support during normal hours, with out-of-hours care provided by MiNightVet Bristol (with full-time night staff). Recent reviews commonly describe staff adapting handling to anxious pets (for example, allowing a nervous cat’s owner to wait in the car before being seen) and vets being calm and reassuring during appointments. There is also a conflicting experience around costs/communication: one reviewer reports being quoted £107 for male cat castration and microchipping, then being told at the visit there was an additional £23 fee, and says the discussion happened in reception in front of other clients.

Bristol Longwell Green Vets4Pets Ltd is part of the Vets4Pets network (the website describes practices as “locally owned”). Based on the latest reviews, the clinic appears set up for routine care (including vaccinations and puppy packages) as well as minor surgery such as lump removals, with some clients reporting they can get same-day urgent appointments. Reviews repeatedly mention a calm, welcoming experience for dogs (including treats during vaccinations), but there is also a clear complaint about pricing transparency—one owner reports a large price increase between two lump-removal procedures and felt the costs weren’t properly explained.

Animal House Vets
Bristol
Our Score (76/100)
Animal House Vets is a multi-site veterinary clinic (its website describes four branches) and is listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. Based on its own service list and recent client accounts, it’s set up for day-to-day care (check-ups and vaccinations) as well as dentistry and surgery, with 24‑hour emergency care supported by out-of-hours service providers. Recent reviews describe staff who handle both pets and worried owners patiently (for example, answering “silly questions” without making owners feel judged) and being quick to fit in pressing problems. There’s also a clear split in experiences around transparency: one owner alleges they were persuaded into a non-essential procedure and weren’t clearly told what anaesthetic drugs were used after a fatal reaction, while another review says the practice was upfront about costs and helped them use insurance and a pet health plan. A repeated practical downside mentioned is long waits past appointment times.
