Updated January 2026
Independent Clinic

Clinic Overview

Burford Lane Veterinary Surgery Limited is an independent, locally owned practice (launched 2021) and a veterinary nurse training facility. The clinic holds Silver Cat Friendly Clinic status from International Cat Care (iCatCare), and reviews repeatedly describe cat-specific handling in practice—such as a separate cat area in the waiting room to reduce stress.

Based on recent owner accounts, the team is set up for both routine care and urgent problems, with specific mentions of vaccinations plus full health checks, repeat medication for ongoing conditions, and support during emergency surgery/urgent walk-ins. Practical details owners highlight include appointments running on time and staff staying open after hours for a serious problem.

Services

Services and capabilities explicitly mentioned include

  • Vaccinations (including kennel cough and kitten vaccinations), with vets also doing an overall/thorough check-up at the same visit.
  • Ongoing-condition management and repeat prescriptions/medication (example: a cat with a “complicated heart condition” and repeat meds described as easy to arrange).
  • Urgent care described in reviews, including being seen for an emergency without an appointment and the clinic staying open after hours for a serious foot problem.
  • Surgery is referenced in reviews (an “emergency operation”), though no procedure details are provided.
  • Cat-friendly facilities: owners mention a separate cat waiting area.
  • Species mentioned in the available information and reviews: cats, dogs, and a rabbit.

People

  • Rachel / Rachael (role not stated): repeatedly named in reviews for doing thorough checks during vaccination appointments, and for long-term continuity of care (“this is my 3rd dog that has been looked after by Rachel”).
  • Alexi (role not stated): mentioned for considerate, kind treatment during a cat appointment.
  • Reception team (not named): noted for small practical touches that help pets settle (e.g., giving a dog “gravy bones”).

Reviews

5.0 stars from 510 reviews. - Timeliness and smooth appointments: owners mention being seen “bang on time” with “no waiting around.”

  • Support during urgent cases: examples include the clinic staying open after hours for a serious foot problem and taking an emergency walk-in immediately.
  • Communication and reassurance in stressful situations: one emergency visit describes being kept updated step-by-step and reassured throughout.
  • Cat-focused experience: owners mention a separate cat area and confidence managing complex ongoing issues (including a cat with a heart condition).
  • Perceived focus on welfare over upselling: one reviewer explicitly contrasts the practice with others, saying the team put the pet’s welfare “above profit.”
