Best Vets in Ely – Complete Local Guide

Johnson and Scott Ltd offers both routine veterinary care and urgent help, and is also listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. Based on recent reviews, the practice appears set up to handle same-day urgent situations as well as ongoing care: one owner brought in a semi-feral cat after seizures overnight and describes the team as thorough, with two phone update calls during the day and a request to send progress updates after discharge. Another review mentions being seen without a booking for a new puppy check when the owner was worried about fleas/ticks. Feedback is mostly very positive, though one reviewer reports a rude, difficult phone conversation, which conflicts with the many comments about helpful communication.

Isle Large Animal Veterinary Centre is part of Isle Veterinary Group Limited and has been providing animal healthcare since 1989. The website highlights a 24-hour emergency service, and recent reviews repeatedly describe being seen promptly for urgent problems (for example, a cat treated quickly after being attacked, and a dog assessed soon after going lame). Owners also mention thorough, unhurried consults (a detailed puppy health check with feeding advice) and the option to join a monthly Pet Club plan that bundles routine prevention and basic nurse-led care.

Isle Veterinary Group (listed as Isle Veterinary Group Limited) offers a 24 hour emergency service and is also a veterinary nurse training facility. From the website and recent reviews, it appears set up for both routine care (puppy checks, vaccinations, microchipping) and urgent same-day problems (for example, a cat seen promptly after an attack, and a dog assessed quickly after going lame). Owners repeatedly describe unrushed, thorough examinations (including a full puppy check and time for feeding questions), and several reviews mention being seen quickly when it mattered (late-afternoon call leading to prompt appointment; a Friday visit followed by being seen first thing Saturday).

Northfield Vets is a proudly independent small-animal practice, owned and run by Theo Gould (the website notes it was previously part of the Aquarius Vets group). The clinic positions itself around appointments plus a 24-hour emergency vet service, with core capabilities including surgery and diagnostics. From the latest reviews available, owners repeatedly mention: - Continuity over many years (multiple reviewers describe using the practice for years/15+ years). - Dental work being carried out (one owner describes their pet coming home “from his dental” and being well looked after). - Practical admin help, such as the reception team making pet insurance claims easier. One reviewer reports a sharply different experience, alleging poor customer service and a focus on money over welfare.

Companion Care (Ely) Ltd is part of the Companion Care group. The clinic describes itself as a modern, well-equipped practice and lists facilities such as an in-house laboratory, operating theatre, digital X‑ray, ultrasound, separate cat and dog wards, and an isolation unit. Based on the website and recent reviews, it appears set up for both routine care (vaccinations/jabs, microchipping, weight clinics) and more involved work (soft tissue surgery, orthopaedics, dentistry including dental X‑ray, and cancer treatment). Recent reviews include concrete examples such as staff taking time to settle a “very barky” dog before surgery, registration handled quickly with a next-day appointment for jabs, and multiple accounts of the team helping with wildlife and trying to avoid euthanasia where possible. A notable negative review describes incorrect advice about rabies booster duration and travel documentation, and alleges a later attempt to charge much more for the required certificate—something to be aware of if you need travel-related paperwork.
