Daisy Street Veterinary Centre is a single-site practice established in 1955 and an RCVS Approved Training Practice (also listed as a veterinary nurse training facility). The website states 24-hour emergency care is available. Recent reviews describe both routine and more serious care, including a cat’s ear infection being drained and support around difficult decisions such as a broken leg where amputation was needed. The main decision-point raised in negative feedback is inconsistent communication about costs and what’s included, alongside one report of being refused telephone advice despite the caller expecting it from the website.

Services

From the clinic website

  • Vaccinations
  • Neutering

From the latest reviews

  • Treatment for ear infection, including an ear drain (cat)
  • Skin issue treatment for a guinea pig, with medications supplied (antibacterial steroid cream and antiseptic solution mentioned)
  • Management of a cat with a broken leg, where it “wasn’t in his best interests to save” (amputation implied by context, though not explicitly named)

Pricing

  • One reviewer reports paying a £58 deposit over the phone for a guinea pig appointment and says they were told it was inclusive of the consultation and any medications prescribed, but then reports being asked to pay an additional £35 for medicines at the visit (total £90+ reported).
  • Another reviewer states that pricing is “fair and transparent,” which conflicts with the above report of unclear pricing communication.

  • Clear explanations and reassurance: multiple owners mention staff taking time to answer questions and help them feel at ease (especially new kitten owners).
  • Specific procedures and case-handling: examples include a cat’s infected ear being drained, and supportive care around a cat’s broken leg where the outcome was not to attempt to save the limb.
  • Cost/communication issues raised by some: one owner describes being quoted one arrangement by phone (deposit including meds) but being charged extra at the visit; they emphasise wanting clearer transparency.
  • Telephone advice inconsistency: one reviewer says they were refused advice over the phone when they expected it to be available based on the website.
