Abbey Veterinary Centre

Abbey Veterinary Centre is a proudly independent practice (Abbey Veterinary Centre (Grimsby) Limited) providing first-opinion care and also taking referrals for advanced diagnostics and surgery. Based on the website, it’s set up for more complex work than many general practices, with CT/MRI imaging, digital radiography, and an in-house laboratory. In the latest reviews available to us, owners most often mention being fit in quickly at short notice and having treatments explained clearly without feeling rushed; specific examples include a cat treated after being bitten and a puppy treated for a sting/allergic reaction with an injection.
