Clinic Overview

Village Vets Cabra operates under the “Village Vets” brand, with reviews describing a clinic used for everything from routine preventative care to urgent pain cases and end-of-life support. Recent reviewers give concrete examples of quick pain relief and a “watch and wait” approach for a dog that had collapsed, annual cat vaccinations with extra questions addressed (diet and a minor injury checked in the same visit), and staff helping owners through euthanasia. Owners also mention a recently renovated, brighter waiting area with the option to sit separately from dogs.

Services

Based on the latest written reviews available to us, owners mention

  • Vaccinations and routine check-ups: annual cat vaccination visits, with additional health/diet questions answered during the appointment.
  • Assessment of minor injuries: a cat’s minor injury examined and monitored, with reassurance it was healing and no medication needed in that case.
  • Urgent/same-day care for acute illness/pain: a dog brought in after collapsing and in significant pain; given pain medication and monitored with a “watch and wait” plan and follow-up medication.
  • End-of-life care: euthanasia (“put to sleep”) with staff support for the owner.
  • Pet plan: a “Vets Plan” is mentioned by a reviewer (described by them as “like health insurance”), but no pricing or inclusions are specified.

People

No individual clinicians are named in the available reviews, but owners repeatedly describe

  • Veterinary team: taking time to explain and answer questions (e.g., discussing diet and general health during a vaccination visit), and being thorough when investigating what’s wrong (“leave no stone unturned”).
  • Handling anxious/nervous pets: one owner of a rescue dog says their dog built trust with the staff over time and is relaxed and happy on arrival.
  • Reception/front desk: described as friendly, welcoming, and efficient when processing payment.
  • Supportive communication during euthanasia: one reviewer highlights kindness and helpfulness throughout the process.

Reviews

Google rating: 4.6 stars from 785 reviews. The latest comments focus on day-to-day experiences (vaccines, payment, facilities) as well as difficult visits (urgent pain, euthanasia). “”

  • Kindness during emotionally hard visits: specific praise for how staff supported an owner during euthanasia.
  • Practical, outcome-focused treatment for acute pain: one dog improved rapidly after pain relief and a “watch and wait” plan, with further medication the next day.
  • Thorough appointments beyond the main reason for the visit: vaccination appointments that also covered diet questions and a minor injury check.
  • Clinic environment: a recently renovated waiting area described as brighter and more spacious, with the ability to sit apart from dogs.
