Vets4Pets is described on its website as a locally owned practice managed by practice owners Leah and Cristina (since 2018). The clinic presents itself as set up for in-house diagnostics and surgery, including orthopaedics and ultrasound, and it also states it accepts referrals from other practices. It’s also listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. From the latest reviews, owners most often mention quick, practical support (for example, same-day urgent appointments and staff helping lift a dog in and out of the car) and efficient medication supply (including text notifications when prescriptions are ready). One recent review conflicts with this, describing a brief paid re-check where the owner felt dismissed after being told nothing more could be done.

Blacks Vets is a veterinary group (a network of five practices) that says it has been caring for pets since 1965 and highlights “family values” and personalised service.

Recent reviewers specifically mention: - A vet working through a dog’s ear problem and finding a solution that helped, with the owner feeling unhurried. - Support through a pet’s final year and end-of-life decisions, including extended time to talk things through and being present for the family. - Prompt handling of a dog needing attention, alongside friendly reception staff.

Harrison Family Vets’ ownership (independent vs corporate group) isn’t stated in the available information. The clinic describes a broad “general practice” setup with in-house diagnostics (including ultrasound, digital radiography, and in-house lab testing), dentistry with digital dental X‑ray, and routine surgery such as spaying/neutering. It also offers curbside/drop-off options and promotes “Fear FREE Care” to reduce stress for pets. From the latest reviews available, owners commonly describe supportive clinical help (including a vet visit on New Year’s Eve for a very unwell dog), but there’s also a detailed complaint alleging serious admin/record-keeping problems affecting an insurance claim and poor complaint handling. One review mentions a “welcoming, well thought out space” intended to help pets relax.

Richard Smith (Bilbrook) Limited
Wolverhampton
Our Score (83/100)
Richard Smith (Bilbrook) Limited presents itself as an independent, owner-led veterinary practice (Richard Smith is listed on the practice website as “Veterinary Surgeon and Practice Owner”). The website focuses on introducing the team (veterinary surgeons, veterinary nurses, receptionist, and practice manager) rather than detailing facilities or specific treatments. From the latest reviews, owners most often describe long-term use of the practice (“for years” and “with all my pets”) and a strong preference for the continuity of seeing Richard and the same team. Several reviewers explicitly contrast it with corporate-feeling care, saying they don’t feel it’s “just for the money.” One recent review conflicts with these positives, describing a poor front-desk experience during a pet’s unexpected death, specifically a perceived lack of empathy from a receptionist.

Streetly Vets describes itself as an independent, family-owned practice, led by veterinary surgeons Dr Jamie Bradbury and Dr Cora Heywood (both listed as MRCVS on the clinic website). The clinic appears set up for routine companion-animal care plus in-house procedures and diagnostics, with an operating theatre and imaging (digital X‑ray and ultrasound) listed. From the latest reviews, owners frequently mention: - The practice being busy but with manageable waiting times, and staff being “helpful and considerate.” - End-of-life care where time was taken to explain what would happen, making a difficult visit feel more supported. - A recent building extension that reviewers say created more waiting space and added an extra room for vets. There is also a clear note of cost/consent concerns from one reviewer, who says treatments were provided without discussion of costs and the “free consultation” was not explained upfront.
