Millstreet Veterinary Group

Millstreet Veterinary Group is an independent practice offering care for both companion pets and farm animals, with 24-hour veterinary care stated for livestock and companion animals. The clinic also lists pet boarding and grooming and a cardiology service (including a cardiology referral option on the site). In recent reviews, owners describe very specific touches: a vet sat on the floor to examine a dog with a back injury rather than lifting him onto the table, a follow-up phone call to check progress mid-week, and a bereavement gesture where the practice sent a card with a hen’s footprint after euthanasia. There is also a contrasting older review alleging a missed tail fracture and delayed escalation that led to later amputation after a second opinion.

• •Range of animals seen (as experienced by owners): dogs, hens, and injured wild animals are mentioned (review).
• •Conflicting clinical experience: an older critical review alleges repeated reassurance that a tail would heal on its own, with a later second opinion finding a break and recommending amputation (review).
