Beware of rip-offs! This vet has now lost me as a customer after 3 years. Everything is okay as long as your pet doesn't get sick. Milo needed stitches to his paw (over £1000). During the recovery process, I noticed that he was constantly licking himself because a blister or cyst had developed between his toes but during the 2 follow-up examinations I was assured that everything was fine. 2 months later and the cyst is still there (now filled with pus). When I mentioned this at my latest worm and flea tablets appointment, I was charged £124 again for antibiotics and painkillers and was told that if it's not getting better a further surgery would be required. I objected to the consultation fee in the latest bill because I was already booked for this appointment, so the receptionist asked the vet if he could take it off the bill.... no chance, a consultation fee was also due. My feeling is that the vets have to fulfill a quota per month. No apologies that something obviously went wrong during the operation. Being too greedy never pays off....

I took my cat for the free health check up. Vet said she's healthy and ready to do her spay. When we went to the receptionist, the lady was not so happy why we not paying anything. Advised they have not done anything and we need to book her next appointment. She said a nurse will contact us within 5 working days. Its more than 5 working days and we still waiting. I will not recommend this vet to anyone as they were not busy but pretend they are and not giving correct information

All the staff and vets know my 3 dogs and even though one is not so easy to handle they do what is needed.I wouldn't go anywhere else with my dogs. I trust them all to look after my dogs . I've had some weird and not so wonderful illnesses with the dogs..I swear they just love the vets ..Kruga.my male Caucasian had to have a total inner ear removal with complications and we are trying to save his remaining ear. Lenya my female Caucasian had strange problems with her uterus and bladder wall .leading to spey for medical reasons... Then having to go through months of treatment with lenya due to MMM. ..A Really horrible thing for my girl to have to deal with .heartbreaking to watch .but so glad she is now ok. My 11 mth old tibetan mastiff Bix just loves everyone there.She too has had some strange issues leading to referral to specialist hospital with outcome being she will need an early spey due to her problems . The little stray tabby cat who was involved in a car accident and dragged himself to my garden where I found him sadly needed a lot of care and attention ,he had to have his tail and foreleg amputated ..they were super great with this little stray cat..I took him in as my own as he wasn't chipped or neutered..a real stray cat..He now lives with me as an indoor cat and is very happy ..loves to be stroked. Very sweet cat.Nobody enquired about him or responded to my posters so he is now mine,chipped,neutered and is a happy cat. I am really grateful for the care and attention given to my lot when they have had to visit the practice. I was So happy when I found out my previous vet Christina is with Alder now. Huge thanks to Gabe,Glad,Magic ,Geoff and All the vets and staff ( sorry I can never remember all your names ),for their care. Thank you all .

Have used this vet for over 30 years and must admit when I heard medivet was joining I was worried, Jeff had always been so good with all my furkids I trusted him completely and saw medi vet as just a business who wouldn't show the same care n compassion as Jeff, or Kyle or even the receptionist, but although I will always try to see Jeff if possible I've also had my dog seen by other vets and they have been good and caring, I' still call it alder vets but I'd recommend them

Our gorgeous dog Pumba suffered a horrific accident. We rushed him to Medivet who were waiting with a stretcher and from that moment on took tremendous care of Pumba. I have no doubt that the expertise of the emergency surgery he received saved his life. We are forever grateful for your professionalism, expertise and love and care of our very precious dog. Thank you.
