Updated January 2026
Independent Clinic

Clinic Overview

Borden Lane Veterinary Surgery appears to be independently owned: the website message is signed by Helle Vendelbo (Veterinary Surgeon/Proprietor). Based on the site and recent reviews, the practice seems set up for routine preventive care and nurse-led clinics, as well as common surgical and diagnostic work-ups (owners mention skin growth removal with biopsy and dental work done under the same anaesthetic). Practical policies and touchpoints mentioned include a Brucella policy, online booking, a price list, and 0% finance for surgical procedures. Reviews also describe same-day appointment help for an unwell rescue dog, thorough rabbit vaccination visits with an in-depth health check, and assistance with insurance claims.

Reviews

Google rating: 4.7 stars from 283 reviews.

  • Thorough examinations and clear clinical follow-through: rabbits had an “in-depth health check” during vaccination; a dog’s suspicious skin growths were removed and biopsied, with dental work done during the same anaesthetic.
  • Help getting seen when pets are unwell: one owner reports the practice found an appointment for a sick rescue dog, leading to rapid improvement after an injection and diet guidance.
  • Support beyond the consult: owners mention help with insurance paperwork and praise for reception and nursing staff involvement in recovery.
  • Species range in real use: reviews explicitly reference dogs, cats, and rabbits being treated.
