Independent Clinic

Clinic Overview

Broadway Veterinary Centre describes itself as an independent practice and says it treats small animals beyond cats and dogs (including rabbits, guinea pigs, birds and reptiles). For urgent problems outside normal hours, the practice states it contracts with VetsNow for out-of-hours care (24/7, 365 days a year).

In recent reviews, owners repeatedly mention

  • A purpose-built practice with “great facilities”.
  • Clear updates during treatment (one owner said they were kept informed of their dog’s progress).
  • Unhurried consultations and follow-up information (a vet called back with advice, didn’t pressure the owner to attend, then followed up by email after the visit).
  • Support in end-of-life care, including staff being described as very supportive during euthanasia.

One recent reviewer reported a problem with WhatsApp messaging for repeat prescriptions (the number provided was “not recognised by WhatsApp”).
