Rase Veterinary Centre – Vets in Louth
Clinic Overview
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.
Services
- •Cat and dog consultations and follow-ups (one owner mentions returning for medicine and a check-up).
- •Vaccinations (including puppy vaccines).
- •Surgery/procedures (described as an “op” for a dog).
- •Euthanasia (an owner describes being supported through putting an older dog to sleep, with a calm environment and accommodating scheduling).
- •Medication and injections (one reviewer describes being placed on tablet treatment plans; another mentions their dog improved with an injection elsewhere—this is a complaint rather than a described service outcome at this clinic).
- •Handling of anxious/reactive pets (e.g., a “snappy” dog managed calmly; gentle removal of an elderly cat from a carrier).
People
- •Patricia (vet): mentioned by name for greeting an owner in the waiting area and handling an elderly rescue cat gently, including lifting the cat out of a carrier rather than leaving the owner to struggle.
- •Reception team: repeatedly described as attentive and supportive, including during an euthanasia visit where the receptionist’s manner was specifically noted as helping the family through the process.
- •Unnamed vet (euthanasia visit): one review says the vet agreed to come in early to accommodate the owner’s timing, and that the process was handled calmly with the vet and a receptionist assisting.
Reviews
4.3 stars from 65 reviews. - Gentle, hands-on animal handling: helping get a cat out of a carrier; managing a reactive dog through a procedure and keeping the dog calm afterwards.
- •Support during euthanasia: one owner describes a calm atmosphere and staff adjusting timing (coming in early) to help them manage a difficult situation.
- •Communication and perceived care are inconsistent: one reviewer says a vet didn’t speak or explain anything during puppy vaccinations and that the injection seemed poorly administered; another review alleges misdiagnosis and being put on expensive tablet plans.
- •Cost concerns appear in negative reviews: one reviewer describes prices as a “rip off” and compares an injection price unfavourably to another practice (no specific amounts are given).

Wow - we took our cat Cassie into Rase vets y-day - (2nd July 25) for the 1st time & we were very impressed- nice spacious waiting room - friendly attentive receptionist- And a big hi to the lovely Vet Patricia who was on duty that particular day. She came out to greet us with a lovely smile & was very gentle & caring with our elderly rescue Cat - which we adore with all our hearts. She even got Cassie out off her carrying case by gently lifting under her belly. (We have prev used James vets in Louth & on more then 1 occasion - they've stood arms by their side watching us struggle to get Cassie out)..we actually left James St vets in Louth because we found them to not be caring or attentive enough to Cassie & it's akin to a animal factory - conveyor belt. All they think off is Money-Money-Money...so another vets had to be found- & luckily we chose Rase - cassie will be back for her medicine & check-up soon, thanks Rase - highly highly recommended...

Great with my German shepherd as he can be a bit snappy with the vet, but they handled him with great care and he had his opp, he was that chilled after he did not want to come home, he wanted to stay with the staff lol

I can not praise the vet & receptionist enough! I was hoping my old dog would enjoy one last summer, however he suddenly took a turn for the worse and the kindest decision was to have him put to sleep.The receptionist, who as the first voice/face you encounter when dealing with Rase Vets was just lovely. The vet kindly agreed to come in early in order to accommodate ME as I was going on an extended trip the next day and was panicking that I’d be leaving a distressed dog behind. The whole process was treated with great kindness by both the vet and the receptionist who assisted her. The calm and understanding environment really helped my family and I come to terms with losing our much loved family pet. I can not recommend this team enough, superb staff!

Absolute rip off prices, misdiagnosed problems and just put animals on expensive tablet treatment plans with only temporary results. I took my dog to another vet and told them everything that this vet has done and they were appalled at the treatments and basic problems were not recognised or even tested for. My dog is much better and happier with an injection that would have cost 3x more at this vet than it did at my new one. Do yourself and your pets a favour and do not go to this vet, they only want your money and do not care for the well-being of the animals.

Have used this vets before but never had a problem. Have a new puppy and went for vaccines twice now. The vet was well how can I say just not interested at all never spoke to us in either occasion, never explained anything, I've never had a puppy yelp and scream so much while being vaccinated, half the vaccine was on the dogs fur so not sure even if he got it. If we had been first time dog owners it would have been awful. ABSOLUTELY USELESS UNCARING AND SO DISINTERESTED IN WHAT HE WAS DOING. Shame they use to be lovely 🙄
