Happy to recommend the practice all day long. I've been taking my dogs for a number years now to the practice and all the vets have had the patient's well being and care as priority. 100% trustworthy. 24/12/25 - I would like to express my sincere thanks to Sandra and all at Medivet who showed such kindness and care to Dash in his final days and made a trying time easier to accept

Sandra is a fantastic, genuine and caring vet. Always provides good, sound advice and I have always felt confident in the care she provides for my dog Pixie. The ladies in the practice both the nurses and reception staff are polite and helpful on the telephone and whilst Im in the practice. Would not go anywhere else. Would highly recommend.

Sandra is a lovely vet, she cared for my old cat Herbie , who died aged 19 a few years back for 13 years. She showed calm kindness and compassion to the end. Now she cares for both my new cats. Sandra came recommended to me by family and none of us go to anyone else. Her love of animals shines through, I think the animals see it too!

Switch my dog here after a terrible experience at our previous vet. When we got to the vets our dog was shaking due to her past negative experiences at her old vets. After 5 minuets with Sandra our dog was allowing Sandra to hold her, she was calm and manageable. Sandra new exactly what to do to put her at ease and we feel much better about taking our dog to the vets and no longer feel guilty for taking her as she no longer leaves feeling stressed or anxious. Sandra took her time to make our dog feel at ease and we did not feel like we were being rushed out as soon as we arrived. She answered all questions my overly cautious partner asked without hesitation and put his mind at ease and also offered advice. Happy to say we will be remaining at this vets and with Sandra.

We have been with this practice for nearly 15 years. They have been looking after our 4 dogs really well over the years. The vet Sandra is very friendly, helpful and professional. All the staff members including the receptionists show respect, care and love to us and our dogs. We will not hesitate to recommend this practice to any animal owners.
