Towcester Veterinary Centre

Towcester Veterinary Centre is a multi-branch practice covering small animals, farm animals and equine work, and it also mentions referrals on its website. Reviewers describe both routine and more involved care, including a dog operation, diagnostic scanning, and treatment for a rabbit with GI stasis. Owners also mention practical communication touches such as being called when a pet is ready for collection, and one review notes being seen within 40 minutes for a suddenly unwell dog. Feedback isn’t uniform: alongside many reports of effective treatment and attentive handling, one recent 1‑star review alleges “covering up symptoms” rather than treating underlying issues and complains about high charges.

• •Fast access when a pet is suddenly unwell: one owner says their dog was seen within 40 minutes, diagnosed, and given medication.
• •Procedures and diagnostics are commonly mentioned: reviews reference an operation, a scan, and post‑procedure coordination (including a call when the pet was ready for collection).
• •Species range comes through in real cases: owners describe care for farm animals (including prompt call‑outs) and a senior rabbit with GI stasis that “was transformed” after treatment.
• •A clear negative outlier on treatment approach and cost: one 1‑star review says visits felt like “a waste of time and money,” claiming the clinic treated symptoms only and describing the vet as disengaged, while another reviewer describes pricing as “very fair and reasonable.”
