Best Vets in Tallaght – Complete Local Guide

Village Vets Tallaght is part of the Village Vets group. Recent reviews suggest it’s set up for ongoing dog care from puppyhood through to more complex follow-ups, with multiple owners mentioning repeat visits over several years. Concrete examples include: puppy vaccinations with vets taking time to answer questions; an annual/monthly vet (pet health) plan that owners say covered yearly vaccinations and multiple check-ups (including for IVDD); and support around end-of-life care for a dog a family hadn’t previously brought there. While most feedback is strongly positive, one recent reviewer (3 stars) said they didn’t think the professional they saw was very good and were unsure about returning.

The Animal Hospital is a veterinary practice with a very high Google rating (4.8 from 730 reviews), with recent feedback repeatedly naming individual vets (Michael and Cathy) for patient consultations and clear explanations. The latest reviews include one serious complaint: a cat booked in for a routine neuter was reportedly ear-tipped after being mistaken for a stray, with the owner saying consent wasn’t obtained and that the cat was collared and microchipped. Other recent owners describe unhurried appointments (“never feel under pressure”), good care for an older dog, and gentle handling during treatment for a cat’s leg injury.

Priory Veterinary Centre is a general veterinary practice that directs out-of-hours cases to the Pet Emergency Hospital. Recent reviews show a split: several long-term dog owners describe staff taking extra time with anxious or “not compliant” dogs, while a couple of 1‑star reviews raise concerns about clinical decision-making and boundaries between reception and veterinary advice. Concrete examples mentioned include a vet visit for a dog’s first appointment, ongoing care over multiple years, and one complaint that a cat’s neuter status wasn’t confirmed by physical exam and “exploratory” surgery was suggested.
