The Pet Vet Warrington

The Pet Vet Warrington describes itself as an independent, family-owned practice. Based on the website and recent reviews, it appears set up for day-to-day care plus urgent appointments, with 7-day emergency care and a stated policy of no surcharge for weekends, evenings, or bank holidays. Owners specifically mention neutering/castration, microchipping, vaccination boosters, and surgery (including an eye procedure to remove excess skin/fur), alongside reports of phone updates and step-by-step aftercare instructions after procedures.

Reviews show a split: many describe smooth procedures and good follow-up, while a small number raise concerns about cost communication and continuity of vets.
