  • Jade Kirsten· 3 months ago

    Rude, unprofessional, not a care or understanding after telling me to drive there from Yeovil along flooded closed roads at gone 10pm, with no help so had to leave my two kids alone in a new county we don’t know. Didn’t even look at my dog after I tried so hard to make my way there and said very rudely “he’s not bleeding so you can wait a few hours while I operate”. Why couldn’t they tell me this beforehand and then I would have waited until morning rather than try and right off my car on these roads in the dark and most of which were flooded and closed which the receptionist said they weren’t nor would I have left my children alone! The fact he didn’t even look at my dog and said he’s not bleeding when in actual fact his right eyelid is all ripped open and streaming with blood, as is his neck and has been since the attack two hours ago. Vile! 27.01.26

    We had to use medivet dorchester as an emergency out of hours vets for our dog as our vets in yeovil dont offer emergency out of hours. They were fantastic in what was an extremely stressful situation on a Sunday afternoon. Our 11year old dog blossom stayed with them for 3 days they set to work on her immediately and kept us upto date with her progress . I can't remember the lovely ladies that looked after blossom and reassured us but I wouldn't hesitate to use or recommend them to any one and can't thank them enough

    I registered my cat with Medivet. They were easy to book appointments with. I took him for his first appointment on Thursday. The waiting area feels really bright and airey. The receptionist was lovely. I was impressed that they had a dedicated cat parent waiting area separate from other pets. The vet I saw was so lovely. She was extremely professional and treated my boy so well. He was so scared and she was so lovely with him. I was shown how to apply flea drops so that they work effectively. I have registered him on their petplan and I highly recommend this. I even got the first 4 weeks insurance free with petplan. I am so happy I registered him their as I know he will be well cared for.
