Best Vets in Corby – Complete Local Guide

Stoley’s Vets (Great Oakley Vets Ltd) is an independent practice (opened by “Stoley” after previously seeing some clients through another clinic, according to reviews) and is an RCVS registered premises. Based on the clinic’s own service list and recent reviews, it’s set up for both routine care and more involved work, including in-house diagnostics (digital imaging, endoscopy, internal laboratory) and surgical/dental procedures. Decision-relevant specifics owners mention include: - Home visits, including support during very emotional end-of-life appointments. - Out-of-hours emergency care, with one review describing being seen at midnight despite not being registered. - Dental problems treated promptly, including a next-day appointment for a dog with a dental abscess needing treatment. - A recurring perception that the vet doesn’t push unnecessary procedures and focuses on what benefits the pet.

Corby Veterinary Surgery (established in early 2015) is part of a small group of practices and is RCVS-accredited. The clinic offers nurse clinics (including nail clips and senior/mobility clinics) and a “Click and Collect” option for flea/worm treatments, food, and repeat medications. Reviews strongly emphasise support with anxious pets (including taking time during treatment and helping get a dog back to the car) and compassionate end-of-life care (including time and space to say goodbye and sending paw prints and a signed card afterwards). Emergency care outside normal hours is provided by Vets Now.

Northlands Veterinary Group is a multi-branch practice that operates a central veterinary hospital alongside branch clinics, and states it provides its own 24-hour emergency service in-house. It’s also listed as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility. In the latest reviews available to us, owners most often describe straightforward preventative care (annual boosters/vaccinations and check-ups) alongside ongoing management for arthritis/leg pain, including discussing home changes and trialling anti-inflammatory medication. Several reviews also mention how staff handled difficult moments such as saying goodbye to a pet. A smaller number of reviewers report problems with front-desk manners and, in one case, a vet interaction described as rude and rushed with an incomplete examination.

Corby Vets4Pets describes itself as a locally owned Vets4Pets practice, set up for routine care and diagnostics as well as more complex cases via its in‑house facilities (lab testing, imaging, operating theatre, and separate wards). The clinic states that emergency cover is available through Vets4Pets Northampton when the practice is closed. In recent reviews, owners repeatedly mention support around end-of-life care, including memorial gestures (a card from staff, seeds, and a memorial stake) after euthanasia, and help coordinating referral care (one dog was sent on to a veterinary hospital). Reviews also show a clear split on pricing and emergency fees, with some owners feeling overcharged for emergencies or tests.

Rutland Veterinary Centre is part of the Rutland Vets group and is RCVS Accredited. Based on the clinic website and recent client feedback, it looks set up for routine pet healthcare (vaccinations, annual checks, parasite control) as well as common procedures like neutering and microchipping, with access to diagnostic imaging and keyhole spaying listed as a service. Reviews repeatedly mention practical positives such as appointments being available without needing to book far in advance, staff taking time so owners don’t feel rushed, and thoughtful follow-up touches (for example, a hand-written condolence card after a pet was put to sleep).
