They are the only Vet that I would use. I have been with them for many years with my last dog and now with my pet Cockerpoo, who suffers with allergies, Medivet have been keeping it under control. The staff are lovely and my dog absolutely loves them. I cannot fault them and am so thankful to them. Thank you Ollie and the ladies.

Very pleased with my experience overall. I had to mark down for my appointment not starting on time, but that was due to an emergency RTA being admitted just before my arrival, so I was more than happy to wait. Two thumbs up!
