Best Vets in Knutsford – Complete Local Guide

Knutsford Veterinary Surgery is led by Dr Paul Adams (BVetMed, GPCert(Ophthal), MRCVS), with reviewers repeatedly seeking it out for specialist input—particularly eye problems (“Paul is an eye specialist”) and dermatology-style workups for persistent skin allergies. Recent reviews describe detailed written follow-up after appointments (including follow-up emails and prompt written treatment plans), and a stepwise, explained approach to problems (for example: antibiotics and a swab test before eventual cyst removal). The clinic is also described as efficient and punctual, and one reviewer notes a bereavement “candle” used in the waiting room to signal quiet respect when a pet has died. Clinic data also lists it as a veterinary nurse training facility and offering emergency veterinary services (24/7 or extended hours).

Holly House Veterinary Surgery is an RCVS-accredited Small Animal Practice and a veterinary nurse training facility, providing care for dogs, cats and rabbits. The website highlights routine and preventative care (including vaccinations, neutering, nail trimming, check-ups and nurse clinics), and reviews add examples of more intensive work: one owner describes “constant treatment” over 4 days followed by 3 weeks of close monitoring, and another mentions an elderly dog having a “big operation” with check-ups afterwards. A small number of reviews raise concerns about suitability/value of a recommended product—one owner reports being sold a spot-on worm treatment for a hairless cat that they felt was inappropriate and cost £50.

Tatton Veterinary Practice is described in reviews as a small, personal-feeling practice (one owner specifically notes it “isn’t part of a broader business model”). Based on recent owner reports, the clinic appears set up for both routine care and complex medical/surgical cases—ranging from vaccinations to laparoscopic surgery and tumour removal—with repeated mention of same-day access when something feels urgent.

Concrete details owners mention include

• •Laparoscopic spay followed by a post-op follow-up appointment.
• •Major surgery including removal of a large tumour and the spleen, described as successful.
• •Support for end-of-life care and “after care” for owners after a pet passes.
• •Longer appointments (one owner cites half-hour appointments) that help anxious dogs.

The Ashbrook Equine Hospital is part of Willows Veterinary Group and is an RCVS-accredited equine hospital focused on horses, offering both hospital-based care and mobile/ambulatory visits. Reviews repeatedly describe clear pre-procedure consultations, including time spent explaining options before treatment, and several examples of hands-on support in higher-stakes situations—such as a weekend emergency call-out to sedate a young horse for travel and ongoing treatment for a serious tendon injury. Owners also mention compassionate help with euthanasia (PTS) and follow-up-type outcomes like a castration wound healing well after weekend care.
