What should a consultation cost?
For a routine weekday appointment, many UK owners should expect something in the £45 to £75 band as a planning range — not a quote. Emergency and out-of-hours consultations often start nearer £120 before treatment. If your quote sits far outside those bands, compare locally and ask what is included in the fee.
