Medivet Hull the Avenues - Chants Vets is part of the Medivet group (the practice was established in 2006 by Sarah Mark and joined Medivet in 2021). The website positions it as a general practice with in-house diagnostic facilities (laboratory, X‑rays, ultrasound) and a focus on dentistry and surgery (including orthopaedic surgery). Recent reviewers most often mention quick appointment handling (including being seen within ~5 minutes in one review) and that staff take time to settle both pets and owners; one owner also describes being fitted in for an emergency close to closing time. Concrete details supported by the sources include 15‑minute consultations (website), vaccination appointments specifically mentioned in reviews, and a review describing a vet discussing “appropriate options” for an elderly dog and welcoming questions.

Vets Now Emergency Clinic Hull is part of the Vets Now group and is set up for out-of-hours emergency care when daytime practices are closed (per the clinic website). The website also references remote help options (live chat and video chat with a vet) alongside in-clinic emergency appointments. From the latest reviews, owners often describe being seen quickly even when warned it was busy, and several mention vets taking time to explain what was happening and keeping them informed about costs. However, there are also serious complaints about phone triage and decision-making under financial pressure—one owner says they were discouraged from attending and given changing price information, and another says they were presented with “euthanasia or surrender” before any x-ray was done.

Tower Veterinary Group is a general veterinary practice with a front-desk/reception team repeatedly mentioned in reviews, plus vets providing routine care such as check-ups and vaccinations. Several owners describe the practice being able to arrange same-day appointments when they became concerned about a pet’s health, and one review describes help with cremation arrangements on the day they called. Reviewers also describe concrete handling approaches, such as a vet being gentle and using treats to distract a nervous dog during an exam. However, one owner reports a serious negative experience involving an allegedly wrong diagnosis, missed weight loss over months, and rough handling, so feedback on vet care is mixed.

Wicstun Veterinary Hospital is a long-established practice (the website states it has served the community for over 90 years) and is listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. It’s also described in the clinic data as providing emergency veterinary services (24/7/extended-hours). From recent reviews, it appears set up for urgent and hospital-level care as well as routine work: owners describe rapid emergency triage (including a nurse meeting them on arrival), admission with IV fluids, surgery, and repeat visits for sedated dressing changes after a serious dog-attack injury. There’s also mention of a “new cat clinic,” which one owner says helped an anxious cat settle in the waiting room and tolerate handling. Experiences around communication and fees are mixed: some owners describe compassionate end-of-life care and clear kindness at reception, while others report not receiving promised call-backs or a named contact, and a few raise serious complaints about unexpected or disputed charges.

Independent practice founded in 1985 by Tim Stead (BVSc MRCVS). The clinic describes itself as appointment-only and offers a 24/7 emergency service, with on-site equipment listed including X‑ray, ultrasound, laser, video endoscope and diathermy systems. It’s also stated to be a veterinary nurse training facility. Reviews paint a mixed picture: many owners specifically praise Tim’s “get on with it” style and surgical capability (examples include a planned C‑section with 6 puppies delivered, and a male dog’s operation involving an undescended testicle), while others describe being rushed, poor communication during appointments, and a lack of compassion—particularly around euthanasia and a post‑whelping illness.

Priory Vets offers routine and urgent veterinary care, with emergency care mentioned on its website. It’s listed as an IVC Evidensia Positive Pawprint Partner (as stated on the site). In reviews, owners repeatedly describe practical, hands-on support during appointments—such as a nurse helping one person manage three cats for simultaneous appointments, including help carrying pets in and cleaning up after an accident. Other specific examples include staff explaining the process clearly before euthanasia, and a vet calling back late in the evening (10pm) to check a dog was OK after a telephone consultation. Some owners also value continuity, mentioning their rescue dog being able to see the same professionals across visits.
