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.

C and S Goodear Services Ltd operates Black Sheep Vets alongside “East Lincolnshire Emergency” (as named on the website). The clinic setup appears to focus on making dog visits less stressful, with a separate dog waiting room and an outdoor garden area for walking. From recent reviews, owners most often describe clear explanations during appointments and a range of care from routine procedures (spaying, puppy vaccinations/health checks) through to urgent and overnight treatment (including an emergency appointment at 1am). One recurring downside mentioned is appointment delays without proactive updates, even when clients understand emergencies may take priority.

Rase Veterinary Centre is a small-animal practice seen in reviews treating cats and dogs for routine care (vaccinations), ongoing medication/check-ups, surgery (“op”), and end-of-life euthanasia. Owners repeatedly mention a spacious waiting room and staff who physically help with handling (for example, a vet lifting an elderly cat gently out of a carrier, and calmly managing a “snappy” German shepherd through a procedure). Decision-making and communication get mixed feedback: several reviews describe a calm, supportive experience (including a vet coming in early to accommodate an urgent euthanasia), while others allege poor communication during puppy vaccinations and concerns about misdiagnosis and high pricing.
