Sandyhills Veterinary Clinic – Vets in Glasgow
Clinic Overview
Sandyhills Veterinary Clinic operates under the ScotVet name, which the clinic describes on its website as independent and providing pet care since 2000. The website also states they provide 24/7 emergency care. From the latest reviews, owners most often describe straightforward, practical care with good communication: a vet examining an eye discharge thoroughly and prescribing gel, follow-up phone calls after treating a dog’s skin infection, and staff making puppies comfortable during vaccinations so they “didn’t realise” they’d been injected. Several reviewers also mention being able to get appointments quickly, and one describes emergency surgery handled swiftly, including help with an insurance claim that was paid in full.

My Westie Dougal had a discharge from his eye and I made an appt to see the Vet, she was very thorough in her examination and prescribed Dougal with gel . I found the whole experience very helpful and everyone was very pleasant to me. I've been attending Sandyhills for many years. Thank you all.

Been using ScotVet for past 3 years with champ, they have been absouloutly brilliant. The care plan has saved us money, with visits. Vaccinations and flea and worm treatments included in the plan. Recently champ required emergency surgery, Staff were on the ball and had him sorted swiftly, and thanks to their experience in dealing with insurance companies our claim was paid in full, I can't thank them enough, and Champ recommends them highly

I had taken my wee pup for his second vaccination yesterday. Right from the moment he went through the door he was put at ease, girls were brilliant making a fuss which he loved. The vet was great answering all my questions and was really great with Vinnie to the point he didnt realised he had been jagged. Great first appointment which will make it easier getting the dog to go back.

Review for [sandyhills Vet Clinic] I have been extremely pleased with the care my cat has received at [sandyhills Vet Clinic ]. From the moment I enrolled in the full-year care plan, I felt a great sense of reassurance knowing that my pet’s health is being consistently monitored and supported. The team is compassionate, professional, and attentive to every detail, making each visit as stress-free as possible. The full-year care plan has been particularly valuable for me, as it ensures my cat receives regular check-ups, vaccinations, and preventative care without having to worry about scheduling each service separately. This plan not only provides peace of mind but also demonstrates the clinic’s commitment to long-term pet wellness. Back in the day, I had Rottweilers too and did a fantistic job careing for them so there is history with this clinc. It means a lot to have a clinic like this looking after my current pet with such dedication and understanding. I genuinely appreciate the care, guidance, and kindness shown by everyone at the clinic. Their dedication to the health and well-being of pets is evident in every interaction. I highly recommend [ sandyhills Vet Clinic ] to anyone seeking reliable, professional, and compassionate veterinary care.
