My dog Bella yes let's remember her name because they dont want to reply to emails. I took her e.k for her librela jag and told them she had a discharge at her vulva no examination quick check yes its bad here is penicillin. She went down hill from there died 5days later. Called cathkin branch 8am next morning told a vet would call never did I called back 11am was told no appointment if I wanted her seen after 1pm be an emergency be emergency payment so I emailed my disgust at 1pm got an app 5.45pm that night Cathkin branch checked her over twice that weektold my husband 3 days before she died bring her back next week. She died in front of me Sunday morning just fell down she either died from sepsis from the infected vulva or a heart attack I dont feel her infection was treated properly its all about the money with them. Now no reply from them heartless money grabbers. May 26, 2026 Unprompted review

Been going to Taylor at Cathkin or their other nearby branches for the past 15 year with my dog Maisie.(not that she's been lots over that time as she's has really been quite healthy, up until the last 6weeks) She is getting the best care from the Vet, and the reception staff are lovely and friendly. Only negative thing i have to say is that it is very expensive for just a consultation, but not sure whether that's just Taylors or across the board at all Vets All in all I am satisfied and usually can get an appointment on the day I call, which is a bonus. xx

Been with Taylor Veterinary Practice for over 40 years. I have always found the vets to be thorough when assessing and treating our dogs. Their kindness and compassion when we have had to say our final goodbye to them was so appreciated. Would recommend them to others.

Very understanding to how feel about our dog and very caring and gentle when examing him a bit expensive like all practices, but money well spent if it's for my poochiepoo they are worth every penny, vet practice are very caring and deserve to be praised, wouldn't opt for another practice now.

I've been dealing with Gary at Cathkin over the last few weeks. Gary has been great with my Border Collie Murran, sadly she passed away today. His manner as a vet and a human being was fantastic, he was calm when I felt the pressure of making a very difficult decision and ultimately supported me in it's conclusion. Gary thank you!

Visited on a Saturday morning with my dog. Felt welcomed from the moment we arrived and checked in. I liked that there is a seating room area designed to cats. Smart idea for keeping some animals separate to reduce distress. All staff members were genuinely sincere and had a warm approach. Garry the vet that saw my dog was understanding, clearly passionate about the care of animals, he explained all possible options of treatment and allowed me opportunity to ask any questions. I felt that my dog had been attended to with love and care and genuine concern. Prior to my appointment I had spoken to Hannah on reception and she was extremely helpful and took the time to gather information in response to my questions. Much appreciated and polite. Thank you Taylor Vets

Receptionist, nurses and our clinician Valerie were wonderful, Valerie listened intently to our concerns about Monty, she was so compassionate and made friends with Monty .Gaining his trust before examining him thoroughly. She consulted with her colleague regarding treatments and kept me included and advised throughout. Despite the practice being obviously very busy that day , there was an air of calm throughout. I cannot fail to mention the wonderful assistance given to me by Pamela (the insurance expert) . Invaluable 😊. I left feeling my dog and myself had been in the best hands possible. Thank you to all
