Glaven Veterinary Practice Ltd

Glaven Veterinary Practice Ltd is an IVC Evidensia Positive Pawprint Partner and a veterinary nurse training facility, with in-house diagnostics and imaging equipment (onsite laboratory, X‑ray, ultrasound, endoscopy, and ECG heart assessment) plus an onsite pharmacy. The website highlights dental care and “innovative surgeries,” suggesting the practice is set up to investigate and treat a broad range of medical and surgical problems in-house.

In recent reviews, owners most often point to practical, day-to-day experiences: accommodating short-notice appointments for pet travel paperwork, keeping the waiting experience calm even when busy, and actively helping pets that are anxious at the vet (including discussing specific ways to make future visits easier). One reviewer also noted staff cleaning up after a dog was sick and reassuring the owner not to worry.
