Blessington Pet Hospital , Blessington, County Wicklow

"Very caring people. Just moved to Blessington area and they took time and effort to understand our old dogs needs. Deffo recommend."

"My dog really likes this vet. We always receive very good service. Communication is very good. If they can't pick up the phone there is always call back. Emails are responded quickly as well. I haven't been so far left alone to deal with any issues. They are always trying to accomodate even at the short notice. Myself and my dog are really happy with the care and service at Blessington Pet Hospital."

"Rip off prices and a “take it or leave it” attitude from staff. Brought my dog here who was very old and weak. He had a terrible cut on his paw and my child was really upset seeing her pet in pain. We arrived to the practice having made an appointment only to be turned away telling us they were too busy to see us. We returned the next day as arranged and were charged €300 to place a dressing on the paw and give an antibiotic injection. They only had the dog in the practice for no more than 30 minutes. When I queried the price I was met with hostility and very poor attitude by the staff. Won’t be using this vet again for anything."

"This veterinarian practice should be shut down. Unethical, dishonest and incompetent. Had the misfortune of needing to bring a cat here for emergency treatment. Cat had urinary tract blockage and clinical history was transferred from regular vet. They admitted the cat and syringed the bladder but claimed there was no evidence to suggest a blockage despite the fact previous clinical history showed the cat had suffered from this twice previously. They suggested the cat wasn’t passing urine because he was “stressed” and that I should bring him home where he would be fine. 24 hours later the cat had still not passed urine and was close to death. Returned to this vet and was turned away at the door stating they were too busy to see the cat and that I should bring him to his regular vet over an hour away. They had charged me the €180 for first treatment and wouldn’t take responsibility for clearing the blockage which would have required surgery. The attitude and hostility of the vet was disgusting and I told her so. Vile person and shouldn’t be aloud to practice. Worth also mentioning that vets are obliged to give you an estimate of costs before proceeding with treatment but this vet doesn’t follow the rules. They make up the price during the day and let you know when you are collecting the animal."
