Clinic Overview

Springfield Veterinary Group / MiNightVet Rotherham is a small-animal hospital established in 1964, with an on-site dedicated emergency service (MiNightVet) staffed by full-time night staff. The website describes a wide service range plus referral services (including orthopaedics, soft tissue and laparoscopic surgery, and internal medicine), backed by on-site CT, ultrasound, X‑ray and an in-house lab.

From the latest reviews available, owners most often describe urgent and out-of-hours care: one review mentions being given a quiet room during an end-of-life visit and receiving a next-day check-in call, and others describe clear explanations of options and costs during out-of-hours appointments. There is also a sharp negative account involving a guinea pig exam (including concerns about consent, handling, and not receiving eye treatment), so experiences appear mixed depending on the visit and clinician.

  • Out-of-hours and emergency visits are a frequent focus, with several owners describing calm staff and pets improving after emergency treatment.
  • Communication and decision-making: reviewers mention clear explanations of treatment options and costs (including during out-of-hours appointments).
  • Supportive end-of-life handling is described in one account: being taken to a quiet room, staff staying with the owner, and a next-day follow-up call.
  • Handling of larger/nervous dogs: one owner notes a vet confidently examined their large dog (including checking the mouth) without assuming bite risk, which helped keep the dog calm despite pain.
  • Negative experience reported for a guinea pig visit: one reviewer alleges inadequate eye examination, use of a dog thermometer without consent, and that no eye treatment was provided; they also say the clinician was not the one they booked.
