The Mill Vets’ public information available to us is mostly review-based: it has a 4.8★ Google rating from 89 reviews, with owners frequently describing friendly, informative appointments across multiple vets. Review details suggest it handles routine small-animal care and follow-ups (including a cat brought in after removing its own stitches). One review describes a serious negative experience: a dog was reportedly refused help because the owner was not registered, and the dog later died that night—this conflicts with the generally positive accounts. Concrete specifics mentioned by reviewers include: - Help with a post-procedure issue (a cat that removed its own stitches) and staff staying “super friendly” while handling it. - Owners saying different vets they saw were “really great and informative,” suggesting consistency across clinicians. - Reports of being “quick” to deal with visits/queries. - A reported refusal to treat an unregistered dog in an urgent situation (per one 1★ review).
