The Best Veterinary Cares in Lincolnshire, United Kingdom (2025)

We have had Cath and James visit for a number of equine related calls now from basic vaccinations to castrations and colic. We have been very impressed with the service and have found them very knowledgeable, practical and pleasant to deal with. The extensive background both have with their own horses makes it easy to trust them with ours. Highly recommend.

These guts looked after my old boy... Horse... And went above and beyond for him. But there some illnesses that you just can't fight. Highly recommend. Huge respect from me.

We have used since they started up. Always reassuring. Can’t thank them enough after an emergency call out to a very sore leg (cut). Due to their quick response Suzy’s prognosis was very good!

Fantastic out of hours service from vet James whilst we were on holiday and needed help. Excellent communication and top level care given. Plus James had a very calming, empathetic "bedside manner" to help put us at ease when we were not having a good day. I wish we lived closer so he could be our every day vet.

Superb service, care and attention. All the staff make you feel valued and explain clearly and concisely their prognosis, and at no point do you feel rushed or pressured. I had an emergency with my dog and after phoning was told to come in straight away and was seen within 10 minutes. Highly recommended 👍

Sadly we had to have our dog put to sleep. The nurse and vet on duty that terrible evening were superb in dealing with 2 grieving owners. Talking to us during the process and giving us as much time with our Little Miss to say goodbye. Will never forget your compassion and kindness. Ian & Michelle

Friendly, professional practice with lovely staff! Our little one had to have surgery and I was extremely nervous. The nurse was so sweet and encouraging with us. She talked through the whole procedure and put our minds at rest, whilst making a fuss of our girl and talking sweetly to her. Later she called for us to collect her and was once again cheery and encouraging. We received first class treatment, so want to say "Thank you and well done!"

The service is amazing. When you walk through the door, it is obvious how important all animals are to everyone from the lovely receptionists to the caring vets. The costs are so much cheaper than other local vets. I cannot praise them enough.

Have used Avenue Vets for approximately 25 years caring for 3 dogs during this time. Always very caring, compassionate, looking after our dogs (and ourselves!) professionally and with empathy. Happy to recommend !

A warm and friendly practice where all staff demonstrate a real concern for the animals. The service, advice and treatment are all excellent. I can thoroughly recommend!

My anxious dog was made to feel at ease by both the vet and receptionist at the Bottesford practice. They were both excellent and made a potentially stressful situation much easier. Thank you.

A lovely convenient practice if your pets appointment is for health checks and annual boosters and straight forward issues. Their main practice requiring more detailed care being at grantham. I've always found the vets and lovely receptionist, very helpful and kind.

We have always received great service. The vets take the time to but my dog at ease before they continue to examine him. I personally wouldn't go anywhere else.

Wonderful Vet practice, extremely friendly, accommodating and professional. My dogs ear infection was dealt with so quickly and effectively, very reasonably priced. Will definitely be returning in future when needed.

Very friendly staff very clean and tidy smells lovely well set out receptionist very welcoming you can see what's going on they make your medicine while you wait and you can watch them the vets are fantastic very friendly they treat your pet as if it was thier own they were that good I moved my other pet from another vets to this practice and they also have a charity hut in the carpark all things second hand

I am very happy with this place . Staff are lovely and helpful . Vets a professional but kind. What more can you ask for?

My dogs are new patients, seen a few months ago for their jabs, my Scottie needed her teeth cleaning, and the bad ones removing. Very kind, caring service, Ian even offered to put my dog in the car. Very happy with the service, and price. Excellent vet.

Ian has been our vet for around 18 years. He is always professional, approachable kind and honest. He's looked after all our cats over these years with great care and respect. His surgery team/reception are always super helpful and friendly.

So very happy with the care and attention given from Ian and the whole team. Kind, compassionate and great value for money. Having seen many vets over the years would say his surgery was the best I had even visited. Many thanks to all of you for keeping my animals happy and healthy .

Have used this vet for the last 20 years + both as a local veterinary surgery and since they have been taken over by a national company. Despite now being part of a larger company they have maintained their friendly and knowledgeable nature. Staff on the phone are helpful and you are able to book both emergency and future appointments without much delay and at suitable times. There is also a satellite surgery in Coningsby. The Horncastle surgery has a small off-street carpark, accessible entrance - choice of steps or ramp, and is wheelchair accessible inside. Have found the vet to be kind, caring and invested in the welfare of the animal. Charges reasonable prices - not cheap but on par with other surgeries.

Fantastic practice, kind and considerate vets,nurses, and reception staff. Our dog has suspected skin cancer his surgery was scheduled for the next day and we were treated so well. Nothing seems to be too much trouble for them.

Great place. It was very easy to book an appointment online. When I arrived I was seen on time. The vet was lovely and so were the support staff. I am very happy with the treatment I received.

I got my beautiful boy put to sleep here yesterday afternoon and cant thank the vets enough. They did everything possible to make my dog and myself and my dad comfortable. We were given as much time as we needed to say goodbye beforehand and afterwards. There was a particularly fantastic vet with pink hair who was excellent with my dog since they were having some trouble finding a vein (not the vets fault whatsoever). They kept telling him he was a good boy and offering him treats, giving him a good fuss etc. The vets also brought out a little stretcher for my dog to carry him in comfortably which I thought was really lovely. To top it all off, the lady behind the counter is one of the most compassionate people I have ever met. They also have a candle and a sign that they put out when someone is saying goodbye to a pet to inform and ask other patients to be respectful. Thank you Medivets Horncastle for a lovely experience.

I cannot recommend this veterinary practice highly enough. From the moment we arrived, Fiona, the doctor, made us feel incredibly secure and well-cared-for. She took the time to explain everything in detail, ensuring we fully understood our pet's condition and the treatment plan. Her expertise and compassionate approach truly set her apart. Lynne at the reception was equally impressive. She was very helpful and ensured that our check-in process was smooth and stress-free. Her friendly demeanor made us feel welcome and at ease. When it came time for discharge, Rosie was outstanding. She was very attentive and took great care in explaining the aftercare instructions, ensuring we left with a clear understanding of how to best support our pet's recovery. We traveled all the way from London for this level of care and would do it again in a heartbeat. The team here is so amazing that we have also booked our post-op check-up and are were happy to make the journey once more. Their dedication and professionalism are truly commendable. Thank you to the entire team for providing such exceptional service! Huxley was a very lucky boy to have you all around him.

I don't know how I have lived in sleaford this long without knowing about this gem of a place. The vets genuinely care about the animals and their owners. What a wonderful place this is!

We had a problem with our staffy which could have been a blocked bowel. Sleaford vets gave us an emergency appointment within a couple of hours. Fortunately, it was just a case of bad constipation. The vet gave us some meds and it was sorted within 24 hours. The receptionist was fantastic - so very helpful. The vet was amazing. She knew that our Indy got very stressed when visiting the vet and took great care to examine her whilst keeping her calm during the examination - and she didn't even charge us for the meds! What can I say? Absolutely amazing service. We couldn't recommend this practice highly enough.

Great service, very compassionate and experienced team who really care about your animals. I am so impressed by Sleaford vets - their team are so so kind. Highly recommended for your pets, big or small!

Really happy with the care we received today for our dog who had become ill in the night. We were given an appointment very quickly and felt that our dog was treated with genuine care and compassion. We really like the home visit approach, especially having had nervous dogs in the past who would have benefitted from this. We were also reassured by the approach to follow-up care and willingness to provide advice. The practice is a really positive addition to the area and we will definitely use them in future if needed.

We desperately needed a vet to put our old poppy to sleep who had been extremely unwell. Our usual vet cancelled the home visit due to an emergency so at 17.30 we were left to find an alternative provider - and thankfully we spoke with The Shire Vets. Despite the extremely short notice, they made the time to see us at 8pm to help our lovely poorly dog sleep. Mihai and Ciprian were extremely kind, courteous, helpful and great communicators throughout this difficult process. I can't recommend them enough. When you need them, they are there ready to support you and your pet and that's worth its weight in gold.

Excellent service attended to home within the hour and second visit at our request again very prompt service. My dog was much more comfortable being treated at home and is now fully recovered after his medication.

Lovely to meet our new vet and nursing assistant for our first home visit after recently moving to the area. They took their time to get to know our rescue dog and gain his confidence before proceeding with his annual health check and booster vaccines. I was very happy with how well they gently managed him. They even managed to coax him onto the scales for weighing. A rare feat for our anxious boy!

Great vet, no-nonsense and top notch care. Everyone is really friendly. Probably more pricy than any chains but I prefer Lucavet - my cat is worth it after all!

I have been using Liviu Luca for my dogs since before he set up his own practice and wouldn't go anywhere else. He is just brilliant and does an amazing job. I have lots of dogs and so I'm quite a regular! My dogs love going to see him as he's so lovely with them. Zara my bernese mountain dog recently had a major operation and has recovered so well due to Dr. Luca's knowledge and expertise, I can honestly say I've never seen such perfect stitching! Liviu has an amazing nurse 'Lee' who assists him and I don't really know what more to say, other than, I would give them more than 5 stars if it were possible!

Lucavet were recommended by our neighbours. We were very happy with the treatment and care of Ozzy our ageing cat. He is doing very well. Thank you Lucavet. We will certainly recommend Lucavet to our friends and family.

We had a vet in Brigg who had prescribed our dogs, medication and kept increasing and changing medication for his skin and nothing was working. So we decided to change to Lucavet. Dr Luca explained the issues, prescribed medicated shampoo, reduced our dogs steroid intake. Within a few weeks we noticed the difference. We have now been with Dr Lucas practice for over a year and we would not change. Last night I had an emergency with our other dog Poppy and again he gave the correct diagnosis and treatment and my dog is much better this morning. We are so lucky to have found Dr Luka, because he explains the treatments and conditions, obviously cares for the dogs, and I would recommend his practice to anyone.

The most wonderful team welcomes you and your animals. 1 of my dogs hated the last vets we went to but gets really excited when we go here. Lovely examination rooms where you sit on a sofa with your pets and they all clearly love their jobs. Brilliant.

Becca was so understanding and informative, and was only there to help. No judgement but quite happily (& gently) informed me I’d been a bit naive fool with taking other advice - always a positive to learn when it comes to the dogs! Completely above and beyond but was no rush - we were in for approx 40 mins having any questions answered and options discussed. The guidance was needed and very much appreciated. Moved 30 miles away and the visit yesterday is exactly why I decided to stay with Belvoir. A caring private veterinary practice with an amazing atmosphere in all staff. Have used many different vets previously & have never known a practice to be so happy. There’s clearly a good reason! Thank you from us!

Wished we had transferred to Belvoir vets way before now. Easy parking, clean comfortable practice,staff very friendly and helpful. Our consultation time was brilliant, it shone through that they are all animal lovers and it's not just a job, the vet we saw was thorough and so caring with our border. Didn't feel rushed and had everything explained, also I felt I was given time to ask any questions .Highly recommended. Able to book appointments on line too.

The staff are very friendly and very helpful . And the way the vets deals with my dog is just so good , especially when my dog is very scared of the vets they even come out to my car to deal with him so he doesn't get so worried and worked up .Keep up the good work guys Thanks🐾🐾🐾🐕🐕🐕🐾🐾🐾🐕🐕🐕🐾🐾🐾🐕🐕
