Clinic Overview

Pet Doctors Ely is part of the Pet Doctors Veterinary Group (established in 1998) and is listed in the clinic data as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility. The Pet Doctors website describes a small‑animal practice offering routine care plus in‑house diagnostics (including imaging and lab work) and lists accreditations such as RCVS General Practice and Cat Friendly Clinic (Silver).

From the latest reviews available to us, decision-relevant specifics include

  • Owners describe being able to book appointments with either a nurse or a vet without problems.
  • One reviewer says the team took in and treated a “poorly hedgehog” they found, without hesitation.
  • Some owners specifically value that they didn’t feel pushed into extras (example given: not being pushed to buy “expensive food”).
  • Multiple reviews raise concerns about fees and management attitude, including a dispute over being charged a repeat consultation for a very brief follow-up.

Services

Services and capabilities mentioned on the Pet Doctors website include

  • Consultations and nurse clinics (including six‑month health checks and blood pressure checks)
  • Vaccinations, parasite control, microchipping
  • Neutering and other surgery
  • Dentistry
  • Diagnostic tests and imaging (website lists X‑ray, ultrasound, and an in‑house laboratory)
  • Grooming/nail clipping and anal sac expression
  • Home visits
  • Pet travel documentation (GB)

Species listed on the website include dogs and cats, plus small pets such as rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, gerbils, and ferrets.

Pricing

Prices mentioned in reviews (for one cat’s leg infection treatment and follow-ups)

  • Visit with 2 injections: £113.40
  • Follow-up with another injection: £74.13
  • Further follow-up described as a very brief check, charged as a repeat consultation: £50.31

Another reviewer alleges they were quoted 4.5× what they were quoted by their vet elsewhere (no £ amount given).

People

Named staff member

  • Suzanne (reception) — one reviewer says she “remembers small details” and is “friendly and polite.”

How the team is described (with examples)

  • Several reviews mention staff being supportive with handling preferences/behaviour, e.g., an owner says they didn’t feel judged when explaining their dog “won’t tolerate other dogs,” and that their dog is keen to go into the clinic.
  • Reviews conflict on the overall experience: some describe caring vets/nurses, while others single out management attitude and refusal of a refund request.

Reviews

Google rating: 4.5 stars from 90 reviews. “”

  • Helpfulness in unusual situations: one reviewer says the clinic took in and treated a sick hedgehog they found.
  • Appointment experience: one long-term client reports easy booking with either nurse or vet, and feeling supported around a dog-reactivity issue.
  • Costs and management approach are a recurring negative: multiple 1‑star reviews focus on fees and how management handled complaints (including a refusal to refund a repeat consultation charge after what the reviewer described as a very short check).
  • Mixed signals within the same experience: one reviewer criticises the “fee regime and management attitude” while also describing the clinical staff as “super caring and lovely.”
