Medivet Stoke Newington – Vets in Stoke Newington
Clinic Overview
Medivet Stoke Newington is part of the Medivet group and offers routine care alongside more involved case work. The clinic’s listed facilities include in-house diagnostics such as X-rays, ultrasound, ECG, endoscopy, and laboratory testing, and it is also noted as a veterinary nurse training practice. Recent feedback is mostly positive about the team’s manner, explanations, and follow-up, with one serious complaint about diagnosis and treatment.
Services
- •Consultations and routine care: 15-minute consultations, nurse clinics, repeat prescriptions, and home visits. Recent reviews also mention prompt prescription handling and good communication during appointments.
- •Species seen: cats, dogs, rabbits, and small mammals. Recent feedback specifically mentions care for cats and a guinea pig.
- •Diagnostics and clinical facilities: in-house laboratory testing, X-rays, ultrasound, ECG, and endoscopy. Reviews also refer to strong testing facilities and careful, detailed assessments.
- •Dentistry and case assessment: dental care is offered. A guinea pig case highlighted a thorough examination in which sedation, X-rays, and dental treatment were considered but judged unnecessary.
- •Travel and certificates: Animal Health Certificates for pet travel. Recent reviews also mention help with an Animal Health Certificate and rabies vaccination paperwork for EU travel.
- •End-of-life care: euthanasia support and cremation services, with compassionate handling noted in feedback.
- •Out-of-hours care: provided by Medivet 24 Hour Kensington. The clinic states there is no charge for assessment by phone out of hours, and the out-of-hours consultation fee is £130.
Pricing
A very limited amount of published pricing suggests the clinic may sit above average, but this is based on very few comparable services. The clearest published figure is the £130 out-of-hours consultation fee, and the clinic also states there is no charge for out-of-hours assessment by phone. Reviews are more often focused on care and service than price, though one dissatisfied reviewer said they spent £250 for two visits plus medication in a case they felt was mishandled.
