Pricing

Published prices suggest the clinic sits above average, based on a partial sample of comparable services. A published fee noted for this practice is £130 for an overnight emergency consultation between 7pm and 9am at a Medivet 24-hour centre. Recent reviews focus more on care than day-to-day pricing, although one complaint says a microchipping charge was still applied after an alleged error.
