  DO NOT TAKE WILDLIFE HERE UNLESS IT NEEDS TO BE EUTHANISED Brought in an injured juvenile woodpigeon (an amber listed species on the birds of conservation concern list) with assurance it wouldn’t be put down. We told them we would’ve taken it to a wildlife rehab centre/ looked after them ourselves (we are professional ecologists). The vets told us would receive an update but had to call for one and was told it was euthanised. The injuries were minor, both wings could flap, they were a healthy weight, and no sign of disease. Very disappointing, totally unacceptable.

  I don't normally write a lot of reviews but I really felt I needed to for Rushcliffe vets with the way they handled the care of our absolute best bud and companion Reece. Trigger warning as this review relates to my pets passing. Making the decision to put our boy down was hard, and I appreciate this may also be a difficult read for others but I felt its so important to know that at the very end their life, the care you'll receive from the team is truly exceptional and extremely compassionate Our boy was 12 when he came down with a sudden internal bleed, and unfortunately it would have been harder on him to put him through invasive tests to find the cause with no guarantee it would be treatable and provide him with a good quality of life, our vet was honest, impartial and gave us a full breakdown of options on his care while letting us come to our own informed decision on what he needed. In the end we were able to give him two comfortable weeks of love and care, and let him pass away peacefully with us by his side and loved til the last moment of his life. Upon making the decision, the care didn't stop here, we were allowed to have our boy in the practice's garden, sitting on our lap and given ample time to be with him in his last moments, to keep him calm and comfortable. Members of the team came out to give him cuddles, and help show him he was really loved. Afterwards we were given precious time to say goodbye privately, this was a hard moment, but being given that space is something I will treasure for my life. The vet then came and stayed with him while we left and kept him there until after we left, so he was comfortable, peaceful, and our last memory of him would be as if he were still just asleep. We weren't asked to pay upfront, instead we were given the opportunity to settle the vet bills once we had had the time we need to grieve the loss of our boy. The team also sent a really lovely card a couple of weeks after, this was a really lovely gesture and shows how much the team care about what they do. In addition to this they supported and arranged for us to receive his ashes at our request through Forgetmenot, who were as incredible and compassionate as the vet recommended. We struggled with feelings of guilt, if we made the decision at the right time, and the vet was incredibly kind and supportive about this, and the care went beyond that of our boy, but we as pet owners also felt cared for in that moment. I cannot recommend this vet practice enough, I would trust my pets life with them 10 times over. Thank you so much for the care you've provided over the last 8 years for us, when we're ready to adopt again in future you will be our first choice of provider.

  Rushcliffe Veterinary Centre are absolute stars when it comes to the quality of care for both my cats. Bambina and Habibi have both been in their care for a while and I thought today was the right day to give show a little appreciation for the whole team. As a first time cat parent, I didn't realise how much worry came with being an owner. With Bambina her spay and neuter went excellently a couple of years ago - each vet I've dealt with, the receptionists too have always been so understanding, calm, clear, professional and caring towards not just her but me too. Then came Habibi, tiny little flea bag and boom, the same care quality and support in addition to complete lack of judgment towards my situation. Yesterday Habibi got spayed and the quality of care continued, the support, check ins and lack of judgement that came from the whole team (Choosing to stay around was a bit nuts but they really made me feel at ease). I can say with my whole chest, Habibi is recovering extremely well at home and Bambina is glad to have her baby sister home. Thank you to Jess, the lovely lady who gave me updates and a photo on my phone (Sorry I forgot to ask for your name!), and the whole team for taking care of my cats... (and my worry!)

  I've been very impressed with the quality of service for the past few years. My dog has annual check ups and had two successful operations there. All staff and vets are friendly, helpful and caring. They went the extra mile to support my rescue dog who was anxious and needed to be left for an operation. His recent check up with Daria (vet) was thorough and caring giving me good advice on how to help my dog in older age. There is on site parking and a big enough waiting area / space to wait outside if needed. I think costs are reasonable. They are transparent and I have never felt pushed into anything that wasn't needed.
