Barrington Lodge Veterinary Clinic is a small independent, family-run practice owned by Valerie and Neil Stratton since 2003. The clinic’s facilities (including an in-house lab for quick blood/urine results, digital x‑ray and ultrasound, plus separate cat and dog wards and a cat waiting area) suggest it’s set up to handle routine appointments as well as diagnostics on-site. In recent reviews, owners repeatedly mention support during difficult end-of-life visits and quick, straightforward treatment-room experiences, while a small number raise concerns about waiting-area setup (cats near stressed dogs) and one owner reports being shocked by the price charged for a single x‑ray.
