Vets in Waterford | Ireland Veterinary Directory

Deise Vets presents itself as a general veterinary clinic aiming to provide “professional, high quality healthcare for all animals,” and it explicitly welcomes new clients. Recent reviewers mostly comment on how straightforward the clinic is to deal with—describing the team as “helpful and reasonable”—and mention friendly staff and vets they consider skilled. Several reviews are very brief (including two that mention “rosé” without any clinical detail), so the written feedback available to us is limited on specific treatments or outcomes.

Despite being provided in a “clinic” format, the available website text and customer reviews describe Curran Home Co, a home interiors/home-improvement retailer rather than a veterinary practice. Based on the site navigation and reviews, it appears set up for supplying and helping customers choose items like paint and bathroom fixtures/tiles, with some customers describing end-to-end support (e.g., help from design through delivery, and recommendations for tradespeople like plumbers/tilers).

Riverside Veterinary Hospital is a small-animal practice that reviewers describe using for urgent, out-of-hours help as well as routine visits. Recent reviews include multiple examples of fast response after hours (one owner credits the team with acting quickly and their dog “healthy and happy” afterwards) and straightforward minor procedures (a vet named Ciara finding and removing a tiny splinter from a dog’s foot). There are also two serious negative accounts: one alleges a poor examination and an attempted cancer “cure” when the owner believed the issue was anal gland inflammation, and another describes a distressing euthanasia experience where payment was required in advance, leaving the owner feeling the process lacked sensitivity.

City Vets presents itself as a veterinary hospital with an experienced vet and nursing team and “up to date skills and facilities” (from its website text). In the latest reviews available to us, owners describe both strong clinical experiences (including vaccinations and thorough checks) and significant concerns about internal communication and continuity of care (e.g., seeing different vets at follow-ups). After-hours care is specifically praised by one reviewer, while several 1-star reviews describe problems such as inconsistent diagnoses, missing test results, and dissatisfaction with pricing. Concrete specifics mentioned by reviewers include: - Vaccinations delivered alongside a “thorough check” with time taken to settle a cat (review mentions a vet taking time to get to know the pet). - After-hours service described as “top of the range” with a “seamless process.” - Repeated complaints about poor follow-up and staff-to-staff handover (owners reporting they had to re-explain prior conversations). - Allegations of errors/handling issues (e.g., expired medication given, “lost” blood results, a stool sample not stored in a fridge) and sharply differing assessments of the same problem across multiple visits.

The Pet Hospital describes itself as a “state of the art” veterinary hospital with dedicated vets, nurses and support staff, and says it has been providing pet care for over 23 years. Recent reviews contain a clear split: many owners report straightforward, well-explained appointments (including explanations of treatment and cost), while a smaller number raise serious concerns about pricing, staff manner, and how specific cases were handled (including allegations of a rabbit dying during handling and a dog deteriorating after an injection). One reviewer specifically compares parasite medication pricing to another practice (€100+ vs €60 for the same tablets).
