Orby Vets Ltd is a small-animal practice (ownership/group not stated in the available information) that treats a wide range of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets and hamsters. It’s also listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. From the latest reviews available, the practice appears set up for both routine care and procedures: owners mention dental work including multiple tooth extractions (a greyhound had a dental clean and returned home after 7 teeth were removed), and a same-day appointment for a bleeding skin tag with the vet explaining options and costs before the owners decided. Several reviewers describe pets being relaxed at the clinic, with one noting their dogs “have no fear” of visits and are given treats after consultations.

Fenwold Veterinary Practice Ltd is an RCVS-accredited small-animal practice that offers routine care as well as a stated dermatology clinic and emergency/out-of-hours services. Reviews repeatedly describe practical communication and follow-through—such as staff phoning about medication changes, having prescriptions prepared quickly for collection, and calling with test results. Several owners also mention a clean clinic, and vets taking time during consults (including handling a vet-reactive dog without issues and spending time helping nervous/new rescue pets settle). One recent review conflicts with this, alleging rushed appointments and a focus on billing.

Aldervale Vets is part of the Rase and Aldervale Vets group (the website describes it as supported by Rase Veterinary Centre) and is set up for both routine appointments and more involved case work, with an onsite laboratory plus orthopaedic and soft-tissue surgery listed. The clinic is RCVS Tier 3 accredited and is also a veterinary nurse training facility. In the latest reviews available to us, owners most often describe practical, time-sensitive help (for example, being booked in within the hour for an ear infection, and getting pain relief prescribed for a sudden severe limp). Another recurring theme is end-of-life care: multiple reviews mention euthanasia appointments where owners did not feel rushed and felt the team handled the situation gently. One review also describes a refund given for unused medication after a dog was examined for not eating and vomiting.

Our Score (69/100)
Lincolnshire Veterinary Centre is a veterinary practice that also operates as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility. Based on the latest reviews, it appears set up for both routine care (including dental work) and urgent same-day situations, with multiple accounts mentioning rapid help for emergencies and clear explanations of treatment and medication. Owners also mention home visits, and one review describes a veterinary nurse delivering missing tablets after work the same day when the owner couldn’t collect them. Reviews are mostly very positive, but there is also a serious complaint alleging an unanswered emergency call and a pet death, with the reviewer stating they contacted the RCVS—so experiences reported are not entirely consistent.
