Fairview Veterinary Hospital
North Dublin City
Our Score (85/100)
Fairview Veterinary Hospital is an independent practice established in 1974 (founded by Michael Tuite snr MRCVS). Reviews describe a small team, with multiple vets named (including Ciaran, Philip and Adriana/Adrianna), and owners most often mention routine preventative care for cats and dogs (vaccinations and check-ups) alongside dental work for cats. The clinic directs out-of-hours emergencies to the Pet Emergency Hospital (UCD, Belfield). Decision-relevant specifics owners mention include: - Vaccinations and check-ups for dogs and cats (including first vaccinations). - Dental treatments for cats (one review references dental costs as “not so cheap,” while another says prices are “reasonable”). - EU pet passports for cats (mentioned in a multi-cat rescue context). - A negative account where an owner felt repeat antibiotic visits delayed diagnosis of a cat’s throat abscess and found fees high.

Botanic Veterinary Clinic

Our Score (85/100)
Botanic Veterinary Clinic operates as part of Anicare Vets (as referenced on its website) and is certified by the Practice Accreditation Board of the Irish Veterinary Council. Based on the latest reviews available, the clinic appears set up for both routine care and serious cases: owners describe vaccinations, diagnostic work-ups, and major surgery (including limb amputation after a road-traffic injury). Several reviews also mention end-of-life support, including being given time to say goodbye and receiving pawprints, a lock of fur, and a sympathy card afterward. Experiences are mixed: many clients describe clear explanations and frequent updates (including daily check-ins during hospital care), while one review alleges serious problems with consent for procedures and accuracy of clinical records.

Amy Lara Vet Clinic is a general veterinary practice that multiple reviewers describe as feeling “normal” rather than corporate. Recent reviews repeatedly mention clear, unhurried communication (taking time to answer questions and explain options), clean facilities, and active follow-up after visits (one owner says the clinic called the next day and again a week later). Several dog owners report returning with multiple pets over years, including one review describing two occasions where the clinic “saved” an older dog’s life and improved her quality of life, and another noting a nervous dog is calmer because of a friendly receptionist.

Village Vets Lissenhall is part of the Village Vets group. Recent reviews suggest it’s set up for routine appointments and ongoing care (clients mention being with the practice “for years” and staff “explained everything well”), alongside more complex cases such as orthopaedic surgery (a dog had shoulder surgery involving a metal plate, with aftercare and regular check-ups discussed). Owners also mention a small-animal health plan, and that the team has been adapting to a temporary setup while a new building is awaited. Feedback is mixed: many owners describe careful, kind handling (including compassionate support during euthanasia), while a small number of reviews raise serious concerns about missed diagnosis and communication/consent around major surgical decisions.
