Badgers Oak Veterinary Clinic is a mixed practice treating small animals, horses, and farm animals, and it states it runs its own out-of-hours service (so clients aren’t referred to an unfamiliar surgery). It’s also listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. In the latest reviews, owners repeatedly describe prompt help in urgent situations—including an on-call vet coming in on Christmas Day to perform euthanasia for a cat in severe pain, and a walk-in injury being seen immediately with sedation used during treatment. Reviews also mention clear at-home care instructions after an emergency visit and “quick” appointment availability.

Cinque Ports Veterinary Group Ltd offers 24/7 emergency cover via Vets Now at Cinque Ports Veterinary Hospital, and is also described (in the clinic data) as a veterinary nurse training facility. Recent reviews include multiple emergency and end-of-life visits: some owners describe clear explanations, being listened to, and compassionate support (including a handwritten condolence card after a pet’s death). Other recent reviewers raise serious concerns about errors and administration—e.g., a lost urine sample, alleged misdiagnosis, billing for the wrong animal, difficulty obtaining full records when transferring, and an unexpected additional charge for using a “Cat Clinic” appointment.
