Leicester St Georges Vets4Pets Ltd – Vets in Leicester

Updated January 2026

Clinic Overview

Leicester St Georges Vets4Pets Ltd is part of the Vets4Pets group and is set up for both routine small-animal care and more specialised work with exotics (the website explicitly lists reptiles, rabbits and small mammals). On the facilities side, it lists an in-house lab, digital X‑ray, ultrasound, an operating theatre, isolation, and separate cat/dog waiting areas and wards. It’s also listed as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility.

In the latest reviews available to us, experiences are mixed: some owners describe strong clinical outcomes (e.g., long-standing ear problems resolved and hyperthyroidism diagnosed after other vets missed it), and one owner says they were seen “straight away” when arriving with an emergency. Others report problems with front-desk administration—particularly appointment delays/rescheduling and disputes about charges on a health plan (including an emailed balance demand and threats of debt collection).

Services

From the clinic website summary, services and capabilities include

  • Exotic pet care (species listed: reptiles, rabbits, small mammals) including rabbit medicine and testing and small mammal medicine and surgery
  • Diagnostics on-site: in-house laboratory testing (biochemistry, haematology, electrolytes), blood pressure monitoring, digital X‑ray and ultrasound
  • Surgery and hospitalisation: soft tissue surgery, anaesthesia, operating theatre, hospital ward, isolation unit
  • Dentistry (dentistry is listed; one review discusses a vet recommending a tooth extraction after noticing gum bleeding)
  • Microchipping
  • Physiotherapy
  • Nurse clinic, weight clinic, and nutritional advice
  • Prescriptions and medication supply
  • Bereavement support
  • Health plans (mentioned on the website; also referenced in a review regarding what should/shouldn’t be included)

Out-of-hours: the website states emergency care is available through the Park Vet Group for out-of-hours situations.

Pricing

  • One reviewer reports being asked to pay an “outstanding balance” of £56.74 for medication they believed was covered by their health plan, and says the practice warned that debt collectors would be used if not paid.

People

  • Maria (vet): named in multiple reviews. One owner describes Maria recommending tooth extraction for a small gum bleed and making comments the owner felt implied expensive treatment (including suggesting they increase insurance). Another owner says Maria told them there would be no extra charge for medication because their pet was on a health plan; they later received an emailed demand for payment.
  • Frankie (practice manager): mentioned in a complaint about billing/communication; the reviewer felt blamed for a “misunderstanding” and objected to the manager citing policy despite not being present at the consultation.
  • Racheal (receptionist): mentioned in the same billing complaint as part of the attempt to resolve the issue.

Reviews

Google rating: 4.4 stars from 272 reviews.

  • Fast access in urgent situations: one owner says the practice saw their dog “straight away” when they came in for an emergency, despite not being their usual vets.
  • Clinical problem-solving praised in some cases: one long-term dog owner reports their dog’s chronic ear issues were finally resolved and that the vets identified hyperthyroidism that previous vets missed.
  • Appointment and reception/admin frustrations: one reviewer describes being repeatedly kept waiting past their booked time and then being asked to reschedule without a clear explanation; another calls the admin team slow to process requests.
  • Disputes about cost transparency and health-plan coverage: one reviewer reports being told medication would not cost extra due to a health plan, then later receiving a payment demand and threats of debt collection; another reviewer felt pressured towards costly procedures they believed were unnecessary after a second opinion.
  • A small amount of off-topic feedback: one 5‑star review contains only “Excellent food,” which doesn’t relate to veterinary care.
