Have needed to take my dog here a few times now and I can't say a bad word against them. Every single person that works here is so friendly, understanding and you can see they care about your pet. Fantastic vets. Read Less

Had to move my sick cat from my regular vet to Medivet as they were the only one who had overnight service. The staff were amazing all the way through this difficult time and when my cat sadly passed away the next day I unexpectedly received a handwritten letter in the post, personally expressing their condolences. These people genuinely understand and care about the emotional side of things as much as the medical which is something I find vastly underrated. Thank you and keep up the great work you do.

I got a really good service when my cat was ill. Because I called a couple of times to ask for advice when my cat was feeling ill, the Dalston medivet receptionist found me an appointment even though it was fully booked. The vet also called me as soon as possible once she got the results of the analysis. The nurses are also kind and reassuring. I am so glad I signed my cats up there! Read Less

We had an horrible experience last week in this place. Our dog was feeling unwell during the night so we had to bring her as an emergency. The vet in charge wasn't proactive at all! We had to say what we think he should do - maybe because he kept asking 'should we do that?' - and wasn't able to give a proper evaluation of our dog's condition. In the end, after doing a blood test that showed that her kidney wasn't well, we were told that apart fro that she seemed 'normal' - even if we said she wasn't - and that we should go home and come back there for more tests in the morning. And he didn't even said goodbye or anything to us - just went to the back and the vet nurse saw our way out. Our dog died 5 hours later. Probably there wouldn't be much to do and the output would be the same but still, this was not the kind of service you'd expect when you bring your beloved animal suffering in the middle of the night.

I have been taking my two elderly cats to medivet Dalston for a year now after moving into the area. Because they are both old we are at Medivet frequently. I really am lucky to have such a great vet practise. The staff are fantastic everyone from the vets, nurses and reception. I am impressed by the new separate cat and dog areas with cubby holes to put cat cages in making an even better experience. I feel safe knowing that is an emergency with my pet happens Medivet are open 24hours.Highly recommend. Read Less

I have been with medivet risedale for in excess of 10 years. I cannot rate them high enough for being friendly or caring. Their extremely helpful and they go that extra mile on many occasions. I have 2 cats and 1 dog and sadly I had to say goodbye to her in 2015. To her the vets was her second home and she loved going there. The whole process of saying goodbye was extremely hard but to their credit all the staff were brilliant in what was a very sad day and I know that they care so passionately about all the animals that cross their threshold. I now have another dog who I rescued and was nervous but after a couple of visits she now loves going there too. I consider myself very lucky to have such a wonderful team looking after my babies because that's exactly what they are and I am never worried about leaving them there because I know they will always look after them as if they were their own. So Risedale. Kyumi Nicola Steph Sarah Rachael you are all awesome and do a brilliant job. I know you will always keep up the good work. Thankyou.Read Less

Wonderful caring vet Tahir who takes his time with worried animals who has a dislike to vets previously and builds their confidence up to trust him. Pippa is very caring and interacts with the animals also to make them feel at ease and to build their confidence up. Their recent nomination for an award for best vets is wholly deserved and I hope they win!! Thanks guys you have been amazing again!! Xxx Read Less

Three cats, aging from 16 to 3. One has an impressive pedigree, two are girls, two are grey, two are laid-back, two love Dreamies, one needs regular claw-clipping, one is over 6kg, one has Colitis, one has had a Thyroidectomy, one has been spayed... twice (before we owned her). They all have one thing in common; they get amazing care and attention from MediVet-Ark Aid, Poole. The staff are wonderful, warm, kind, thoughtful, knowledgeable and make one feel that one is the only client that matters. They truly go above and beyond to look after our beloved animals. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to another pet owner. Read Less

Just been told by Coventry branch I can not have another prescription for my dog to send off to on line vet as it is 1/3 the price without them seeing my dog first, and charging me about 50 for a check up, but can buy the medication at the practice at top price without seeing the vet, what a rip off Read Less

The staff always look after my pets fantastically, the vets continually keep up with the advances in medicine to offer the most current treatment available. Thank you and keep up the great work you do for us pet owners and our babies! Read Less

My dog Molly had treatment in the Carpenders park branch for a lump on her eye, she had it removed all seemed good regarding payment from the insurance then I was asked for 54.74 extra, why I asked when I was covered and had paid my excess of 80, it seemed they went for a very expensive HISTOLOGY test rather than the 62.98, rather than asking me if this was alright they tried to get it of my insurers, and they said they will not cover it, as it was unnecessary. I then had a nasty letter from Medivet saying this can't continue, and payment had to be made !!!!!!!! , I had never received a letter from then about any money, so I rang the branch at Carpenders Park and asked what was going on, the receptionist took the message and said she will look into it, nothing happened, so a week later went it there and asked what was happening, she took a message and said she will get back to me, again nothing, then Anna was on holiday so another message was left, why should I pay extra money for something that was NOT neccary and no one at this branch knew why it was charged, was unhappy and think I will be taking my 2 dogs elsewhere for treatment as I feel the trust has gone which is a shame as I have been going there for 6 years Not happy at all, I know you have to make money but reallyRead Less

Disgusted willing to charge a pensioner nearly a thousand pounds for a beloved cat with no alternative advice when all the cat did was sprain his back leg they were willing to do every single test going, hence before their lovely warm foreign holiday with no thought to how my father was going to struggle, not one single bit of advice given accept from receptionist " well I hope he can pay" licience to print money vets, with no sincere help.

These amazing vets saved my dog's life this week by removing a foreign object (an acorn) from her intestines. They helped make sure she was all covered by the insurance and also helped with the direct claim. They called me with regular updates at every stage of her treatment and recovery. They sent us home incredibly prepared with everything we need for home care too. All the staff are genuinely caring and amazingly skilled. The hospital itself is very well equipped and ready for any animal emergency. Cannot recommend these guys highly enough. Read Less

We recently got a kitten and opted to take her to medivet in radlett as it is within walking distance. From the moment of making that first phone call we have been made to feel very welcome and pepper loves her vet natasha. Everyone we see wether it is staff or fellow pet owners you are made to feel special and you also great great advice & top quality service. Read Less

Our cat had a scab on her leg which I was a bit worried about. Our usual vet was fully booked on my day off so we came here. The vet said she thought it was probably just a scratch from the garden, which we'd suspected. However, she then said it could be ringworm, fungus or mites. Knowing that none of these things would be life threatening to the cat, my partner suggested we just see if the wound healed itself over a week. The vet got quite pushy about doing the tests and because I couldn't check what any of those things looked like I went ahead with the tests. As soon as we got into the waiting room I googled 'ringworm' and could see that my cat categorically did not have it. I felt pretty duped. The bill came to about 160, and as suspected, she had none of the ailments we'd tested for, although the vet was late getting back to us with all the test results. The vet insisted we buy a collar for her which we didn't end up putting on her. I also asked for her microchip ID so I could change address. They gave me the wrong microchip ID and when I called to change it, Petlog informed me I had been given the ID for a ragdoll kitten (not my cat). I then called the vet and they gave me another ID. It was also for a different pet. Total incompetence on every level. These people are cowboys. Read Less

These guys in Dalston are great and helped when my kitten was very sickly, even though we had to keep going back to get rid of the problem. They are also sympathetic to nervous pet owners - when I left my cat for the day after he had the chop, they told me they gave him lots of cuddles and that he was everyone's favourite for the day. The vets themselves have a lovely manner and don't rush appointments or make you feel like you are wasting your time, and when I called up several times to check if something was normal (like I said, a nervous pet mum!), the ladies on the phone were always helpful and had a vet call me back to discuss free of charge. Can't recommend enough. Read Less

I'm probably slightly biased (disclaimer: I grew up next door ;) but the staff here have always been super-lovely - both as neighbours and as carers of my various cats. Some of the vets are also rather sexy! Read Less

I visited the Stamford Hill branch of abbeyVET and was very impressed with the care and skill with which my pet was treated. The Vet I saw was Jason Stivano, he was amazing, very caring and explained everything. I couldn't have got better care for my pet or met friendlier staff anywhere else. The treatment cost was very low and the care and aftercare were faultless. I am very impressed and would recommend this Vet and this surgery to anyone . Thank you Jason and staff for your help.

Along Dalston Lane there's a row of the most disreputable shop fronts you've ever seen. Mostly boarded up, several burnt out. If the road wasn't so busy you'd avoid it at all costs. Stuck in this row of unfortunates, the front of Abbey Vets is so small you'd easily miss it. But if you do notice it, you'll see a difference. The tiny windows are bright with green plants. Inside the tiny waiting room is bright and clean. There's only room for four or five chairs, a couple of stands of foods and accessories and a big notice board. In back they only have one small consulting room. To be honest I haven't used them as a vets for a few years: as my cats have become older and their health issues more complex I've not been able to afford a private vets and so go to the local RSPCA hospital. I remember them as being efficient: generally you'd be able to get an appointment quickly, wait only a few minutes and have results of blood tests the next day. My cats were also neutered there (on a voucher scheme for low income folks which they take part in) and later had dentals, all of which went well. I still drop in occasionally for something I can't get elsewhere. Recently I've been going to get prescription diet. It was nice to find they still had my cats on the computer, and I haven't been able to find the foods I'm buying cheaper, even on the internet. Going in is always a pleasure: the receptionist is nice (though you may have to wait while she takes a call or sorts out another customer: this place is busy!) and there's a nice atmosphere. Read Less
