Which vets in Guildford do AI assistants actually recommend?

We put the 14 questions a person in Guildford asks before choosing vet — cost, specialism, who to use, how to check them — to Claude and ChatGPT, 5 times each, 140 answers in all, and recorded every firm the answers named. 29 firms in Guildford were checked against those answers. 16 of them were named at least once. The rest were not recommended in a single answer.

Firms are ranked by the number of answers that named them, then by how many different questions. The assistants do not give identical answers twice, so a difference of one or two mentions is noise; being named on questions a rival is absent from is not.

The questions we asked

  1. Do I need a vet that specialises in exotic pets or is a general practice near Guildford fine for a rabbit?

  6. How can I check if a vet practice near Guildford is properly accredited by the RCVS?
  7. Where can I find genuine reviews of small independent vets around Woking rather than sponsored listings?

  10. What would a dental procedure for an older dog typically cost at a local vet along the A281 near Guildford?
  11. Are there any locally owned vet practices near Cranleigh with a good reputation for orthopaedic surgery?

Is your firm on this list?

Every firm above has a private report: which answers named it, which rivals were named instead, whether its website can be read by the assistants, and the three things that would change the result. We work with one vet in Guildford, and this index is re-measured every month, so the change is visible here.
