Clinic Overview

Companion Care (Peterborough) Ltd describes itself as a locally owned practice led by joint venture partners Dr Megan, Joe, and Adrian. Based on the website, it’s set up for both routine and more advanced work (e.g., operating theatre, digital X‑ray, ultrasound, endoscopy, echocardiography, in‑house lab, hospital ward, isolation unit, and in‑house blood transfusions). In the latest reviews available to us, owners most often mention supportive handling of euthanasia (privacy, time, keepsakes like pawprints/locks of hair), and responsiveness for some urgent problems (same‑day appointment for IBD and follow‑up contact). A minority of reviews report serious dissatisfaction, including one alleging confusion after a cat castration and another describing delayed callbacks and a missed/late diagnosis.

Services

From the clinic’s website summary, services and capabilities mentioned include

  • Diagnostics & imaging: digital X‑ray, ultrasound, echocardiography, blood pressure monitoring, microscopy, and an in‑house laboratory (biochemistry, haematology).
  • Surgery & procedures: soft tissue surgery, orthopaedics, ear surgery, dentistry, and access to an operating theatre.
  • Medical care: cardiology, oncology, dermatology, nutritional advice, and medication/prescriptions.
  • Preventive/routine care: microchipping, cat clinics, weight clinic, nurse clinic, pet passport, and health plans.
  • Facilities: hospital ward and isolation unit.
  • Emergency/out-of-hours: the website states that outside normal hours, emergencies are referred to Vets Now Peterborough.
  • Training: listed as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility.

Pricing

Only specific prices mentioned in reviews

  • A reviewer reports being charged £250 for cat castration (and states they were then asked for a further £200 for lab testing). These are allegations from a dissatisfied review rather than a published price list.
  • Another reviewer mentions being “out of pocket 300 quid for medication,” and elsewhere states spending over 500 on parasite treatment/related costs (again, review-reported spend rather than set pricing).

People

Named team members mentioned in the website summary and/or reviews

  • Dr Seren Cinar (Veterinary Surgeon) — thanked in a review for managing a dog’s IBD case, including arranging a same-day appointment and the practice keeping in touch to check progress on a treatment plan.
  • Dr Adela Navarro (Veterinary Surgeon) — repeatedly named in reviews about end-of-life care; owners describe being given time, privacy, and step-by-step explanations (including options around cremation and what would happen next).
  • Dr Megan Carter (Veterinary Surgeon, Owner) — listed on the clinic website as an owner/joint venture partner.
  • Mr Joseph (Joe) Wheeldon (Head Nurse, Owner) — listed on the clinic website as an owner/joint venture partner.

Reviews

Google rating: 4.4 stars from 293 reviews. “”

  • End-of-life care is frequently described in concrete detail: owners mention being given privacy and time, a candle/poem at reception to signal quiet, and keepsakes such as pawprints, footprints, sympathy cards, and a lock of hair.
  • Follow-up and access can be a strength for some cases: one owner reports a same-day appointment for a dog’s IBD issues and says the clinic checked in afterwards to see if treatment was working.
  • Conflicting experiences around communication and decision-making: one review alleges no callback despite repeated chasing and feeling pushed to continue medication they couldn’t administer; another praises vets taking time to answer questions and “get to know” new kittens.
  • A small number of reviews allege major problems and unexpected/unclear costs: one claims confusion over what was removed during a cat castration and describes being asked to pay extra for lab testing; another describes spending significant amounts on treatment they later believed was unnecessary after a later cancer diagnosis elsewhere.
  • Payment timing during euthanasia is disputed: multiple reviews describe considerate bereavement handling, but one review criticises being asked for payment during the goodbye process, describing it as insensitive.
