Manchester Fort vets for pets – Vets in Manchester Fort
Clinic Overview
Manchester Fort Vets for Pets is a purpose-built practice that’s part of the Vets for Pets network, and the website states it’s locally owned and led by veterinary surgeon Alexandru Ilas. The clinic appears set up for both routine care and in-practice diagnostics and procedures, with an operating theatre, in-house laboratory, ultrasound and X‑ray, plus separate cat & dog waiting areas and wards and an isolation unit.
From the latest reviews available to us, owners repeatedly mention vets taking time to get the full history and explain next steps clearly, and being particularly good with nervous pets (one owner notes their dog is “usually nervous” but was handled in a way that made it a good experience). There’s also a detailed account of end-of-life support, including returning ashes and providing paw prints, a nose print, and a lock of fur as a keepsake.

We recently said goodbye to our beautiful Bella, and I wanted to thank the team for the kindness and sensitivity they showed throughout such a heartbreaking time. From the moment we arrived, every member of staff treated Bella with dignity and compassion. When we went to collect her ashes, we were overwhelmed to find that they had also taken her paw prints, nose print, and a small lock of her fur. It was such a thoughtful and unexpected gesture that meant more to us than words can express. We were too emotional to properly thank you in person, but please know that your care and gentleness made an unbearable moment a little easier. Thank you for everything you did for Bella and for us.

Took my 7 year old Bichon, Shaun. The best vets I have been to! Alex saw him for a consultation. Absolutely amazing with Shaun, who is usually nervous at vets and made it a really good experience for him. The practise is immaculate and staff are lovely and very welcoming. Highly recommended!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Alex is by far the best doctor at Vets for Pets. He provides excellent care, takes the time to explain everything clearly, and genuinely cares about both pets and owners. We always feel confident and well looked after when we see him, even if there’s a bit of a queue it’s absolutely worth the wait. Highly recommend!

Vets for Pets Manchester Fort is by far the best vets in and around Manchester City Centre. Vets for Pets Manchester Fort is actually located within the Pets at Home store on the upper floor. The team are incredibly welcoming and friendly. Alex who is both the vet and owner is probably the best vet we have taken our Max to see. He is very knowledgable and we can see he genuinely cares about the animals in front of him, Max's tail didn't stop wagging the entire time we were in with Alex. We have been really impressed with Max's care and cannot recommend Vets for Pets Manchester Fort enough.
