Our comment from InfoVet about Longridge Vets:

Longridge Vets is widely regarded as one of the best independent veterinary practices in the area, praised by clients for putting pets first rather than focusing on profit. The team is described as incredibly friendly, kind, and caring, providing a calming presence that helps even the most nervous animals feel at ease. Clients appreciate the thorough explanations given before any treatment and the professional, compassionate care provided during both routine checks and complex surgeries, such as laparoscopic spays. The practice is noted for its fair and competitive pricing, avoiding unnecessary treatments or upselling. A standout feature is their mobile 'Vet in a Van' service, which offers convenient, fully equipped care at home, ideal for timid pets. While the veterinary staff and nurses receive universal acclaim for their expertise and empathy, some clients have noted occasional friction with reception staff regarding communication or insurance claims, though the practice strives to address these concerns directly. Overall, Longridge Vets is highly recommended for its genuine love of animals, excellent medical knowledge, and personalized service that often has clients traveling significant distances to receive care.

Fantastic experience: Visited the Vet in a Van with my 2 cats for routine annual checks and saw Paul and his assistant Lauren. We have been using this wonderful independent vet practice in Longridge since around 1995 but have only recently stated to take advantage of the mobile Vet in a Van service. What a fantastic initiative as it’s convenient and completely equipped for virtually everything. Consistently excellent care and treatment as always. I imagine if you have a timid pet it’s ideal to simply pull up immediately outside and pop in to see the vet without your pet having to encounter any other pets. Can’t praise them enough. Thank you as always

Fantastic experience: Levi has just been treated at the van in Clitheroe by Nigel and Lauren. What a superb job they did. Levi, being a Collie, was quite frightened but they calmly reassured him. They were both really professional and communicative and explained everything so clearly. Fantastic service all round. We are so pleased we made the decision to move to the longridge practice. We will definitely be recommending it to others. Joe Sumner-Meadows and Peter Sumner

Ina Mueller Posted on Google 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: I am extremely satisfied with our veterinarian. I have some experience with vets in other countries as well, and I often had to change veterinarians — usually because either the people didn’t connect with the animals, or the people didn’t connect with each other. At first, I was skeptical here too, but then my Sami became seriously ill, and they did everything with heart and soul to help him. These people have truly found their calling. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You are wonderful

Pete Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: This isn't our usual vet practice as we had to travel 40 mins due to our CKCS girl Bella needing a dental x-ray and extensive work carried out. Upon arriving, we were greeted by the vet Freya, who was very welcoming and soon put our nervous little girl at ease with plenty of cuddles. She can easily get stressed out when visiting the vets, but all the staff we met are really friendly and professional. Excellent communication and updates throughout the day. I would highly recommend anyone (especially nervous dogs) to use Longridge Vets if you want a personal service that none of the larger chain of vets can match.

Fantastic experience: I’m cant recommending Longridge vets enough! Reasonable pricing, definitely care. We have four dogs and we also Foster. They look after all our dogs and our foster dogs, even put up with four Pugs and a Frenchie all at once for their vaccinations without raising an eyebrow and that’s got to be recognised. It’s a 45 minute drive from home on a good day, and worth every minute. Well done, vets like this are few and far between.

Fantastic experience: Best vet practice we've ever used either in UK or US over nearly 50 years of pet ownership. Genuinely caring, and professionally excellent. Can't recommend highly enough. All the vets and staff top rate. Their care for our dog after a nasty attack was immediate and superb. Our opinions about the whole practice just keep getting better. It's the first practice to figure out longstanding issues for both our dog and our aging cat.

Fantastic experience: We chose longridge vets to spay our dog as our vets do not do the key hole spay. Usually our very anxious labrador is a nervous wreck at the vets but from arriving she was calm and all members of staff were friendly and welcoming. We will now be using this vets even though its a 30 min drive from our house. You can tell they have a genuine love for animals.

Allan Ward Posted on Google 1 year ago

Negative experience: Reception staff are rude. Vets are lovely. However, the urgency of the urgent referral my dog needed wasn't good enough. I'm sorry to say

Longridge Vets
Longridge Vets

We are sorry you feel this way, we always refer urgent cases very promptly. This is something that we don’t delay. Frustratingly and understandably we do not have control of how quickly referral centres reply to ourselves and clients. We do work hard to follow up and chase referrals. Please do reach out to us on the email below as we are not aware of a specific case with a delay. We are pleased to report that 2 urgent cases this week have been referred within 2-3 hours of our initial consultation, and both were seen by the referral centre the same day, and non-urgent cases have all been referred within the same working day as our initial consultation. We are not aware of any problems so please email [email protected] if you would like to discuss your concerns further. Thank you.

Smicker “Pete” Smith Posted on Google 1 year ago

Negative experience: Been going to Longridge vets for a few years, approx two years ago our Yorkshire terrier developed a bad cough and honking after each coughing session. We were told it was a heart problem and given medication which he as been taking for over two years. After researching this so called heart problem we decided to get a second opinion, turns out he as Bronchitis not a heart problem. So my dog as been taking tablets for two years which did not do anygood whatsoever but made him lethargic tired and miserable, now he is a different dog and had the bronchitis been spotted sooner it could have been cured. He needs to take steroids now for life thanks to not being diagnosed correctly.

Longridge Vets
Longridge Vets

We are sorry to hear that you are not happy with the service and care that you and your dog received. This is not what we would expect and are always keen to be contacted directly to discuss cases individually. I have sought clinical advice prior to replying to this. It goes without saying that via Google we are unable to comment on individual cases, nor are we able to breech any specific or individual details. Hence why we would rather discuss directly with you through phone calls or emails or in person. Based on what you've said in your review we can say that bronchitis along with tracheal problems/collapse possibly have a link with heart problems in small breed dogs.
With veterinary medicine and pets a key component is communication between the vet and the client. We would not suggest that a pet should stay on medication, especially with side effects, without any therapeutic value. IE without the medication either improving symptoms or changing results on investigations. This is one reason why we always promote update phone calls, meds reviews and good simple communication with us. We take several phone calls daily where our vets provide free of charge advice over the phone following up on symptoms etc. We always encourage this open communication it's what works best for the pets.

Norah Ulzheimer Posted on Google 1 year ago

Beth x Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: The best vets we have ever been to. We have been coming to Longridge Vets for a few years now, and I always recommend and praise them to everyone. My dog has always been a little nervous going to vets in the past, but since going to Longridge Vets, he is much more relaxed as all the staff are so friendly, kind and compassionate. From the first day they have always made him feel settled and at ease. They always do their best to help my dog, Smudge. I have so much confidence in them in looking after him and you can really tell all the staff love the animals/pets and are always so happy and friendly. They are always so thorough, detailed and helpful. Thank you so much for always taking care of Smudge on his many visits and always making him feel calm. He also regularly sees Grace who is always brilliant with him and we are always happy with the outcome of what she does for us and is so gentle and kind with Smudge. I never have doubts when visiting Longridge. Xx

Fantastic experience: Our own Vet doesn't carry out the Lap Spay, so we read the reviews and Rae had her op last week, she wanted a walk and was back stealing slippers the next morning like nothing had happened. A week on and you can hardly tell, she has had No ill effects at all. The staff were so kind and the fact Rae couldn't wait to go in again today for her check up says it all. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Lap Spay and also Longridge Vets, well worth 5 stars. Thanks

Carol Nolan Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: My friend is registered with Longridge Vets, and they were outstanding, compassionate, understanding, and professional. They dealt with my friend's dog, who was 12 and in the final stage of old age, and made a very difficult decision easier to make with informed clarity, honesty and care at such a sad time. Exemplary at every stage. Words can't convey how grateful we are for how they made Louie ( chocolate labradoodle) çomfortable. They showed the utmost care, dignity, and empathy at this sad time. A difficult and sad decision was the right one.

Amelia Whittam Posted on Google 2 years ago

Negative experience: Booked an appointment for 3 clear days to vaccinate puppies ahead of time and was sent a txt the day before claiming I’d missed the appointment, I didn’t miss the appointment as it’s 2 days until the initial date , If the vet is not working or understaffed then don’t cancel and blame a missed appointment WOULDNT recomend at all

Longridge Vets
Longridge Vets

We are sorry that you have felt the need to write a one star review. This does not sound like our usual service. Appointments can be booked by a client on line or via the phone by an account holder. Once agreed we very rarely change appointments, and have never, in 10 years, cancelled an appointment without discussing it with the client, and agreeing an alternative. It’s just something that doesn’t happen. We are sorry you thought this had.
We have a text reminder service than sends the registered mobile number a reminder message the day before the appointment. This sadly doesn’t work when appointments are made late the day before the given appointment as the appointment misses the reminder time. We understand that appointments can be missed. We are always happy to offer an alternative appointment when one has been missed. In the case of vaccinating and microchipping of puppies we may not be able to accommodate the exact day of choice, especially given Christmas bank holidays. We always recommend breeders to book them in as soon as possible eg as soon as the puppies are established ready for their vaccines and chips at the appropriate date.

Fantastic experience: This vets may be some distance away from my home, but it's worth travelling. I've used 2 other vets in the Leyland area, and as much as their facilities seem more modernised than Longridge vets, the care received and prices don't compare. The staff here genuinely care for your pet and don't want to unnecessarily charge you for things not needed. It's only quite small but there's parking, it's clean and medication readily available on site.

Hannah Fox Posted on Google 2 years ago

Positive experience: This really is an outstanding vet practice - they are so knowledgeable and the vets go above and beyond. Unfortunately the whole experience is ruined by a lady on reception who is rude and speaks to people as though she is above them. I'd like to point out that this isn't a one off and she has spoken to both myself and my husband in an awful tone more than once. We were told that this vet practice submits insurance claims on your behalf (i.e no payment needed at time and insurance will pay out). However, this receptionist has denied this whole process and has chased us for payment as though we are criminals. Apparently submitting a claim is just a "courtesy" and once it comes back rejected you will find that you get a lot of attitude from this one receptionist. Not helpful and not willing to try to help to resolve why it wasn't accepted.

Longridge Vets
Longridge Vets

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We value all feedback. We are genuinely sorry to hear that we have not met your expectations in handling insurance claims. We offer direct claims for two insurance companies. Frustratingly we cannot often influence a decision that an insurance company makes. We usually ask the client to settle any outstanding after a company has declined to settle the claim. We are keen to look into this further for you to check all avenues have been explored.

Fantastic experience: Can't praise this place enough. Very happy to see me with a late emergency appointment for my cat, very knowledgeable and polite. Regardless of if my boy gets better, I know he's been given the best possible chance

Fantastic experience: I was very reluctant to go to a vet with my 20 year old cat, after going to a vets in Urmston during Covid and not being allowed in the vets surgery and being told he was aggressive and they couldnt take blood and he is old, have him put down. He is still a survivor 2 and a half years later. I had to book an appointment for him with Longridge Vets, due to his claw lodging in his paw pad and I could see he was in pain. I voiced my concerns about his anxiety and my anxiety before the appointment and I really can't fault the surgery, very kind, totally professional. The vet was wonderful, the veterniary nurse was also wonderful, she held my cat firmly but with love whilst he had to have his painful claw cut. It is ashame that the previous vet, didn't seem to be able to draw blood to test for thyroid problems and thought the best thing to do when my cat got stressed was to have him put down. Had I had this vet and this nurse take charge at the time then perhaps, my cat and I wouldn't be so anxious about going to the vets. Bravo!! Highly recommend them and will go again in a heartbeat.

Positive experience: Popped in and spoke to a friendly lady on Reception who was very informative and took all our details. We'd just recently moved into Longridge on a new Estate and looking for a Vet near to us for our Malamute. Seems very nice and tidy and they have 4 Vets there. Hope to join them in the very near future.

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love Longridge vets and so does my dog. He gets so excited when we arrive. The standard of care provided is second to none, and I wouldn’t consider going anywhere else. The whole team are so friendly, and really care about each individual animal. Any treatment is clearly explained and any concerns you have they are happy to talk through with you. Nothing is too much trouble. Thank you so much for everything over the years.

Fantastic experience: visited Longridge vets with my collie today. We were seen by Bruce the vet who was very attentive, very kind and easy to talk to. My collie is usually scared of going to vets but he is at ease at Longridge vets. All the staff are amazing. The best vet team , we are so fortunate to have them all

Negative experience: I brought my rescued German shepherd in today who we have had for the past 5 years The young lady and vet who tended to Lexi were amazing and very sympathetic towards Lexi, myself and my husband.,that’s where it ends I’m afraid to say.We have always used Longridge vets for the past 30 years and have always had 5*treatment. After our visit today we left demoralised and extremely upset and felt that we where inadequate to provide care for our much loved family pet by the display of expressions and body language from the lady behind the counter , myself and my husband work hard to provide and should not be made to feel degraded by the ignorance to current financial climate. Will seriously contemplate whether to use them again

Fantastic experience: To Nigel White MRCVS BVSc and Longridge Veterinary team. A real breath of fresh air to 'still' be able to find a Vet with experience, patience and compassion. Whilst listening to owners concerns and experience. I can come across as arrogant and rude and often unintentionally say the wrong thing. However, Nigel took it with professionalism and understanding. Unlike my local vets. It's always worth going that extra mile (literally) when it's quality and experience you need. Highly recommended. My experience 1985-1992, built and (help) manage largest dairies in the world, Middle East, Far East and USA. My expertise : Breeding, Artificial Insemination, youngstock and Calf health. Foot and Mouth. Hidden Disabilities Bipolar disorder/CPTSD. For Daisy.L

Fantastic experience: Both vets I've met have been so so lovely. We went in yesterday and our vet was so gentle with our little dogs, he explained everything perfectly and seemed very positive and upbeat. I used to dislike going to our previous vet elsewhere but everyone at Longridge vets is friendly and welcoming.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely fantastic. Lola cut her leg open at 4:30pm on a Friday and they immediately accommodated an appointment with her before the weekend. Stitched back up excellently and sent on our way within the hour. Couldn’t believe how friendly and knowledgeable the staff were. 100% would go back (hopefully don’t have to!)
