The Hampshire Vet describes itself as an independent practice offering 24-hour veterinary care, including overnight in‑patient care and emergency cover (including bank holidays). The website highlights preventative care, surgery, nurse clinics, and access to specialist referrals. Recent reviews frequently mention pets being hospitalised overnight with regular updates, and multiple examples of surgery (spay/castration and other procedures) with aftercare information sent out. One recent review raises the opposite experience: disjointed communication and problems with posted parasite treatments, including confusion about when worming medication was due.

St Kitts Vets is a veterinary practice that’s also listed as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility. Recent reviews suggest the team regularly handles situations that need clear decision-making and communication—owners mention being kept updated step-by-step, being given different treatment options with costs explained upfront, and getting practical help after routine procedures (for example, fitting a cone after a cat’s spay when the owner wasn’t registered). Feedback on front-desk experience is mixed: several owners describe reception as kind and helpful, while others report sharp/condescending manner and sensitive payment conversations being spoken about loudly in the waiting area.

The Moores Orthopaedic Clinic is an independent, orthopaedic-only referral clinic for dogs and cats, established in May 2023 by Andy Moores and Richard Hoile. Based on the website and recent client accounts, it’s set up for specialist orthopaedic diagnosis and surgery (including cruciate ligament surgery and joint replacement), with structured post-op follow-ups (e.g., 6‑week and 8‑week checks mentioned) and an app used for communication and updates during admission. Concrete examples from recent reviews include: a specialist assessment that avoided general anaesthetic and CT/X‑rays when they weren’t needed (with the dog instead examined thoroughly, including being watched walking/running), TPLO procedures with follow-up checks, and a total hip replacement with ongoing recovery support and advice.

Our Score (83/100)
Brunswick Place Veterinary Clinic is a small-animal practice established in 1948 and described on its website as offering both routine care and more advanced treatment options (including orthopaedic surgery and chemotherapy). It also acts as a veterinary nurse training facility and has disabled access and on-site parking. From the latest reviews, owners often mention consultations that cover “all options” without a “hard sell,” and efficient service from vets, nurses, and reception. One detailed negative review describes a difficult end-of-life appointment that felt rushed after a long wait, with the owner saying they didn’t receive the quieter, more private setup they were expecting and later got no response to concerns; another review reports problems obtaining medical history due to an email system issue.
