East Grinstead Vet Centre is set up for both routine appointments and more complex/same-day needs, with emergency veterinary services and being a veterinary nurse training facility. Recent reviews describe swift urgent appointments (including Saturdays), clear explanations of options and risks, and staff taking time with anxious or reactive pets. Specific treatments mentioned include tick care for an elderly cat, nail clipping for kittens, and surgery ranging from lump removal at the base of a dog’s tail to anal gland removal, with owners noting good recovery and thorough pre-op discussions. One reviewer raises a concern that treatment and medication were “very expensive,” which contrasts with otherwise strongly positive feedback.
