MCR Vets Limited

MCR Vets Limited presents itself as a new independent, privately run practice in Salford. The clinic offers both routine care and more urgent or surgical treatment, with owners describing experiences ranging from first consultations and neutering to orthopaedic surgery for luxating patella. Recent feedback is strongly positive overall, particularly around communication, accessibility, and aftercare, though one detailed 1-star review reports serious concerns about one consultation and follow-up.

Services

•Routine and preventive care: routine check-ups and general consultations are part of the clinic’s core offering, with owners often mentioning detailed explanations during first visits and cat consultations.
•Urgent and emergency care: emergency care is listed among the clinic’s services.
•Surgery: reviews mention luxating patella surgery, kitten neutering, and spay surgery, with owners describing regular updates during the day, clear explanations of procedures, and structured post-op guidance.
•Follow-up and client support: owners regularly mention being able to ask questions by phone, email, and WhatsApp, including after procedures, and some describe being invited to drop in during aftercare if needed.
•Post-operative care: recent reviews highlight practical aftercare support, including recovery guidance and reassuring updates such as photos sent during a pet’s stay.

Pricing

Published prices suggest the clinic sits around average, based on a partial sample of comparable services. A £30 online booking deposit is required for online bookings; it is refunded at the appointment if a health-plan visit is included, refunded for cancellations made in advance, and not refunded for missed appointments. Recent reviewers also describe pricing as fair, transparent, and free of surprise costs.

People

•Sinead: named repeatedly in reviews as the vet and owner, and often praised for thorough explanations, knowledge, and a caring manner. One review reports a very negative experience centred on communication and clinical decisions, which stands apart from the broader pattern of feedback.
•Georgia: mentioned positively in a kitten neutering review, with the owner saying she handled their kitten especially well.
•Wider team: reception staff, nurses, and the broader team are frequently described as friendly, welcoming, and responsive.

Reviews

Google rating: 4.9/5 from 78 reviews. Recent feedback is overwhelmingly positive, with one detailed negative review standing out against a much larger run of strong experiences.

•Owners often mention quick appointments and a welcoming first impression, especially when switching from another vet.
•Communication is a recurring strength: reviewers describe clear explanations, help over phone, email, and WhatsApp, and transparency around treatment and costs.
•Surgical and aftercare experiences are a major positive theme, including same-day updates during knee surgery, WhatsApp photos during a spay, and clear post-op advice.
•One 1-star review raises serious concerns about communication, records handling, and treatment choices during a cat consultation, while many other recent reviews describe Sinead and the team as professional, kind, and trustworthy.

Fantastic service.

Beth Upton

I’ve had a really positive experience with MCR Vets since they have opened on Salford Quays. The team have been incredibly friendly and helpful throughout. They’re always happy to help not just at the clinic, but also over the phone, email, and WhatsApp, which has made things so much easier when I’ve had questions or needed advice. It’s clear that everyone there genuinely cares about the animals they treat and wants the best outcome for them. I really appreciate the kindness and support they’ve shown, particularly Sinead, and Mollie's very glad she doesn't have to wear her watermelon anymore. I’d definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and professional vet. :)

What a place! Got in immediately, they spent so much time on our dog and were so caring. She was treated like royalty from start to finish (so much longer and more detailed than any vet I’ve ever experienced). Very fairly priced and an incredible group of people. Can’t recommend this place highly enough. The best possible care for your pet.

Wonderful vets full of lovely staff who really care for your pets. When my Jazzy went in for her spay they kept me up to date and even sent me a couple of pics on WhatsApp to put my mind at ease. They gave me some useful guidance on caring for her post op and were happy for me to drop in with any questions during her aftercare too.

Warning to all clients. Total Betrayal. This vet named ''Sinead'' threatened us and called the RSPCA on us. Viciously shouted and threatened us on phone. Refusing to release video, phone SAR. Hiding evidences. Truned her back, BECAME SILENT, writing a misleading & incomplete report, which she forced us to forward to other vets, to cause further harm to our beloved cat. We have contacted RVC. She MUFFLED her sentences like being posessed, barley wanting to respond to my questions during consult. Aggrevating & calling witnesses. The vet initial promises on phone: faked positivity to have us onboard. A fake persona that became possessed & hostile later. This vet prescribed COSOPT to an already blind cat and this medication is NOT for blind cats. But to prevent blindness and lower IOP. This medication harmed our cat and caused a Neurological SHOCK. Cosopt: SHE GAMBLED WITH OUR CAT's wellbeing and prescription. 2. Lowering IOP in a blind cat does not restore vision, and the main “benefit” (preventing vision loss) is gone if the cat is already blind. 3. The drug still carries systemic risks, especially timolol in cats (slow heart rate, low blood pressure, collapse). Before review : Respond: Did you think of the welfare of the animals (meat and dairy cows/calves) who were exploited to become your meal ? Upon attendance it was incompetent & almost ''hostile''. With even suggesting euthanasia in first 30 minutes, to our perfectly striving & living , eating boy. He chooses LIFE. He does not want your euthanasia that VET Sinead, has potentially SOLD many times over the years. How do you sleep at night? Vet prescribed incorrect meds COSOPT to our cats SCRATCHED eye, causing an adverse reaction. This vet did not follow ethical guidelines that requires full transparency, regarding their specialities. They are not an Ophthalmologist & Dental specialist for more complex, long term and chronic diseases & they do not refer clients on to specialist referral hospitals with more training and machinery. She, ''did not know the term'' Stomatitis & called our cats mouth issues ''mouth disease'. I had to correct her, as their report was written in the tone to influence and harm our cats future - in the next veterinary appointment. And included inappropriate commentary. She completely ignored fight scratches. Instead they offer immediate invasive procedures that are so far from the meaning of welfare - such PAINFUL (months long) extraction of teeth & eyes (enucleation), so nothing is left of the cats face (caved in mouth & eye holes). Before suggesting further tests & correct treatment. How is this WELFARE ? Meaning this is normal practice at this practice. We have now been in touch with multiple (only few) London Referral Hospitals specialising in Glaucoma in cats, & they have informed that vets should always offer the option for a referral to help the animal/cat, before prescribing any medications that can harm other ORGANS (kidneys), & before a specialist takes a look. This was confirmed in the specialist Hospital. HER REPORT: 1. Stomatitis bacteria/dirt formulated around the teeth/gums that causes inflammation & injection due to bacteria that needs to be cleaned. She completely excluded this. 2. The vets hypothesis in the first 5 minutes, was that our cat has cancer. 3. She took blood in an incorrect & invasive manner, pocking directly in the mouth, that actually is considered as poor practice method & in many cases spreads the cancer cells if they are present. 5. She proposed euthanasia in the first 30 minutes. Which is absolutely appealing & incompetent from a vet. 6. Cancer was not present & she did not add such significant notes into the very incomplete and lacking report. 7. Majority of their procedures are extractions and injury, emergency operations. Which ARE completely different from specialist vets. This is a new clinic, and many such clinics aim is to sign on clients, earn the invested moneys back. Not interested to REFFER CLIENTS ON TO OTHER CLINICS. This would mean losing possible clients and operations.

Super friendly and professional service

Stop reading reviews trying to figure out where to take your pet! Just bring them here… Genuinely…. You won’t be disappointed. Service is incredible. Reception staff are lovely and responsive. The vet Sinead is so knowledgable and is great at explaining everything. Pricing is great! Complete and full transparency from the owner and you can tell she really cares about what she’s doing. The practice is very clean. The main vet and owner Sinead just has that gentle touch of someone who truly understands animals as well as a passion for what she is doing. Had issues with the old vet that my cat was registered with so was looking for somewhere new to take them. What a breath of fresh air this place was. If you love your pet, do the kind thing for them and bring them to a place where they will be truly cared for by someone who is passionate about that they’re doing and clearly very knowledgable and at a practice that has an ethos of putting you and the welfare of your animal first.

Really fantastic Vet!! After looking for a new vet as our previous vet had let us down, we saw Sinead (the vet) today for a consultation for our cat Mickey Mouse. Sinead was extremely thorough, offered explanations and was so lovely with our cat. And has many years of experience. The clinic itself was clean and modern and all the reception staff were helpful and friendly also. We were also able to get an appointment so quickly and there is free parking just outside. Really happy that we found a new vet for our cat and would highly recommend!!
