Northlands Veterinary Group – Vets in Corby
Clinic Overview
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.

Took Xander for his annual booster and a check up on his arthritic shoulder, vet took time to fully check him out, discussed changeswe've made to try & help Xan and was really helpful - suggested a inflammation drug to trial , which we are going to start on 22/12/25 for two weeks, if it works and we see significant improvements we will go down this route.

Not long moved to the county . Our old dog has been having trouble with her legs from arthritis. Phoned Northlands vet in Kettering who were so helpful with getting her an appointment .their actual surgery was full of appointments that day, but they managed to get her to see someone at their other surgery in Corby. The staff were really friendly and welcoming. We’ve now got her medication to help her. Highly recommend Northlands veterinary hospital .

I would recommend Northlands without hesitation. The staff is always helpful, professional and caring. A special mention to Catherine for her care and patience with my anxious dog, Sadie.

I HAVE BEEN WITH NORTHLANDS FOR MANY YEARS, AND THEY HAVE TREATED ALL MY PETS IN A CARING, SYMPATHETIC AND FRIENDLY MANNER-ALWAYS. WHEN I WAS SAYING GOODBYE TO MY BELOVED DOG, THE VET SHOWED ME EMPATHY, AT SUCH A HEARTBREAKING TIME. I AM VERY HAPPY TO BE A CLIENT OF THEIRS, AND I WOULD RECOMMEND THEM, IF YOU ARE SEEKING TO ENGAGE WITH A VET.

We have been with Northants vets for 9 years and we have always been very satisfied, the vets have been always lovely but the latest visit was very disappointing. Our dog was seen by an elderly male vet. When he opened the door, he did not say a word, just waved at us to come in. He was obviously scared of our dog, he did not examine her properly, just listened to her heart briefly. He told us in a rude way to hold her tight. Yes, it is a German shepherd, but a very friendly German shepherd. We have never experienced such approach. People who don't like dogs should consider to choose a different job than a vet....

We have been with Northlands for over 20 years after being with other vets that we were not happy with. Northland have been amazing with all our pets. We have a dog with health issues and requires regular vet visits. She loves going to the vets and gets excited when the word vet is said. Catherine is our main vet and she is brilliant. Corby vets all the staff are very friendly, welcoming, very helpful and knowledgeable. I highly recommend Northlands in George St, Corby.
