The Lodge Vets is most often mentioned for routine issues being “sorted” quickly and for end-of-life support. Recent reviews specifically describe the team being kind during euthanasia and sending sympathy cards afterwards. Pricing feedback is mixed: one reviewer says prices are good but also complains flea treatment costs are high and that there’s no “blue light” discount.

Townsend Veterinary Practice - Rubery
Birmingham
Our Score (56/100)
Townsend Veterinary Practice – Rubery is part of the Townsend Veterinary Practice group (established in the late 1950s, per the practice website) and focuses on small animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, ferrets, and backyard poultry. The website lists routine care (consultations, vaccinations, parasite control) plus practical add-ons like nurse clinics, grooming/nail clipping, blood pressure checks, pet travel documentation, and home visits. Emergency support is described as available during normal hours via the practice; out of hours, owners are directed to YourVets Smethwick for telephone advice and emergency consultations if needed. From the latest reviews available to us, experiences are mixed: some owners describe supportive end-of-life help (including holding a pet for cremation at no cost), while others report being made to wait outside during an appointment due to another dog inside described as aggressive and unmuzzled, and one reviewer alleges they were treated differently after mentioning benefits.

Solihull
Our Score (33/100)

The practice focuses on pet animals (it moved from mixed large/small animal work to pets in 2011) and is set up for cases needing on-site diagnostics and treatment, with hospitalisation, surgery, imaging, and an in-house laboratory mentioned on its website. It also states it can handle emergency work with 24-hour care, and it’s listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. The latest reviews available to us focus heavily on corporate ownership, pricing, and how care is presented—several reviewers describe very high quotes (including dental work) and feeling pushed toward extra tests, while others describe staff interactions as “cold and uncaring.”

608 Vet Practice
Solihull
Our Score (33/100)
608 Vet Practice trades under Linnaeus Veterinary Ltd (a corporate group; reviewers also link Linnaeus to Mars Petcare). The website positions the practice as a hub for complex cases and emergencies, with 24-hour care, hospitalisation, and an in-house laboratory for rapid diagnostics “365 days a year.” It also emphasises continuity of care (encouraging clients to see their preferred vets and having vets discuss cases together). Recent reviews, however, focus heavily on cost and “corporate” changes, including claims of higher prices after takeover, additional tests being suggested, and an extra charge for same-day “emergency appointments.”
