Emergency Vets in Lincolnshire

Avenue Veterinary Centre is described in the provided clinic data as a veterinary nurse training facility and as offering emergency veterinary services (24/7 or extended hours). In the latest reviews, owners most often talk about help with urgent accidents (including being seen promptly and, in one case, being seen on a Saturday despite not being registered), and about end-of-life care (multiple mentions of peaceful euthanasia and support for owners). One reviewer also describes the clinic recognising when a case needed a specialist and making a referral rather than persisting with in-house treatment.

James Street Veterinary Centre describes itself as an independent practice that has been caring for pets for over 100 years. The website lists consultations, diagnostics, dentistry, surgery (including laparoscopic surgery) and treatment for exotic animals, and the site also notes 24/7 digital vet support via a partnership with Vidivet. Recent reviews add detail on what that looks like in practice: owners mention fast appointment access (including being seen within about 30 minutes for a dog injury), and specific work-ups such as a parrot being mildly sedated, X-rayed and having blood tests taken within 20 minutes of arrival.

Rase Veterinary Centre is a 24/7 practice that also operates as a veterinary nurse training facility. Recent reviews describe pets being seen urgently at short notice and appointments where vets take time to explain options and give clear information. There are also serious complaints about communication and administration: one owner describes repeated problems obtaining a written controlled-drug prescription, and another describes a poor experience around an elderly pony’s assessment and planned euthanasia (including disputed tests and invoicing).

The Pet Vet Lincoln describes itself as an independent, family-owned practice. From the website and recent reviews, it appears set up for routine care plus same-day/urgent problem-solving and surgery, including dental work and investigations for lumps/bumps, with the option of at-home appointments. Owners specifically mention major abdominal surgery to remove an intestinal blockage, spays with follow-up/courtesy calls, and palliative/end-of-life care in a dedicated suite.

Raoul Dowding Vets is a two-site veterinary practice (ownership/group not stated) that appears set up for both routine care and urgent problems. Across the latest reviews, owners repeatedly describe being seen quickly—sometimes the same day—even when the diary is full, including one case where a vet saw a dog during their lunch break. There are also multiple examples of the team adapting care to the situation: examining an elderly dog in a car when the owner couldn’t lift them out, and arranging a calmer approach for a reactive dog by meeting outside first.

Grantham Vets4Pets Ltd is part of the Vets4Pets network; the website describes its practices as “locally owned.” Based on owner reports, the clinic handles a mix of routine care and more complex orthopaedic work: one review describes arranging a visiting specialist surgeon to perform a TPLO knee operation after a severe ligament injury, while others mention hip and elbow X‑rays, dental work, and spays. Several owners also describe practical communication touches, such as nurses keeping them updated while pets are admitted and vets taking time to explain options without rushing. One recent review raises a serious concern about medication pricing and feeling pressured to buy medication directly from the practice.

Vicarage Veterinary Centre is described by reviewers as an independent, family-owned practice, and it’s also listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. Based on reviews, the clinic appears set up for both routine consults and urgent/same-day problems, with examples including being told to “bring her straight in” after a cat collapsed, and fitting in a late-evening assessment for a deteriorating puppy.
