Independent Clinic

Clinic Overview

Appleton Hall Veterinary Clinic is a small, independent, family-run practice established in 1998 by Sarah and Steve, with their daughter Alice (a veterinary surgeon) also part of the team. Based on the website and reviews, the clinic is set up for both routine care and surgical work, including orthopaedic procedures (cruciate ligament surgery is specifically mentioned) supported by in-house diagnostics like X-ray, ultrasound, endoscopy and blood analysers. In the latest reviews available to us, owners repeatedly mention being kept informed during operations and recovery, and one owner describes getting ongoing support to manage a dog’s severe allergies, including trying different treatments until the right medication was found.

  • Follow-through on longer-term problems: one detailed review describes workups and trialling different treatments for severe allergies until an effective medication was found.
  • Responsiveness and advice: one owner says the team is “always just a phone call away” for advice and reassurance (described as “no matter the time of day or night”).
  • Value and approach to cost/upselling: one owner contrasts this clinic with a previous vet where insurance and a “pet plan” were pushed, and says Appleton Hall felt “well valued for the cost.”
