Village Vets Bray is part of the Village Vets group (as indicated by the clinic name and website domain). Recent reviews suggest the clinic frequently sees both dogs and small pets such as guinea pigs and rabbits, with multiple owners describing thorough handling and clear explanations during visits.

- •Surgery care and pre-procedure explanations for an eye removal, with the vet talking owners through what to expect.
- •Handling anxious dogs in a way that helped them relax during the visit.
- •Repeated treatment of guinea pigs, with owners saying vets “went above and beyond.”
- •A “vet plan” mentioned by one owner, who said it made routine visits easier to organise and “good value” (no prices stated).

BrayVet is a companion-animal veterinary clinic with facilities listed on its site including fully equipped operating theatres, diagnostic imaging (digital X‑rays), an in‑house laboratory, endoscope, ECG, in‑patient wards, and a dedicated cats-only wing. Reviews describe both long-term routine care (cats and dogs over 10–25+ years) and more complex cases, including surgery followed by physiotherapy and diagnostic work-ups (blood tests and “full diagnostic”). Several reviewers mention being fit in quickly for appointments (including same-day), and one describes receiving aftercare by email with questions answered. One recent review reports disappointment with communication and customer service “since it has been taken over,” which conflicts with other recent comments praising the team.

No corporate group affiliation is mentioned in the information available to us. Based on the written feedback we have, Florence Road Vets is most often described as a general veterinary practice with vets repeatedly called “knowledgeable” and “thorough,” including care for serious cases (one reviewer says their cat’s life was saved after an accident). A minority view strongly conflicts with this: one owner reports they were advised toward euthanasia and major expense, but another clinic resolved the issue with a short operation and the dog recovered fully—highlighting the value of seeking a second opinion if you’re unsure about a recommended plan.
