Medivet Lower Earley

- Recent reviews are mostly very positive about the team’s friendliness, caring manner and the calm, clean feel of the practice. - Owners say appointments often run on time, questions are answered without rush, and staff are understanding in awkward situations, including a cat accident in the consult room and repeated spay rebookings. - Named praise continues for Julien, and one recent reviewer also thanked Robert and the receptionist after a budgie appointment.

Services

•Routine and preventive care: vaccinations, parasite treatment, microchipping, neutering and 15-minute consultations.
•Diagnostics and clinical support: dentistry, ECG, X-rays and an in-house laboratory.
•Nurse-led and additional services: nurse clinics, home visits and Animal Health Certificates for pet travel. The practice is also listed as a veterinary nurse training facility.
•Species seen: dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and other small pets, with reviews also mentioning exotics and a budgie.
•Examples from recent visits: reviewers mention accommodating repeated rebooking for a cat spay without charging for the cancelled slots, gentle handling of cats and small pets, and positive experiences with a bird appointment. Earlier feedback also highlighted knowledgeable rabbit care and a dog’s sedation and ear flush going smoothly.

Pricing

A very limited amount of published pricing suggests the clinic may sit around average, but this is based on very few comparable services. The published out-of-hours consultation fee is £130, and the practice states there is no charge for assessment by phone. Recent feedback on value is mixed, with several owners describing the practice as pricey for routine care, tests or referrals.

•Julien / Julian (vet): repeatedly praised for being knowledgeable, experienced, compassionate and practical, with owners saying he listens carefully and does not make appointments feel rushed.
•Robert: thanked by name in a recent review for excellent service during a budgie visit.
•Reception team: described as welcoming, friendly and helpful, with reviews noting a relaxed front-desk experience and supportive handling around appointments and follow-up.

Julian was very thorough, with our cat, the only thing l was a little taken aback with was the price. Consultation and blood test £317.94 , that is a lot of money , a lot of money. No wonder people do not want to bring in their animals .

Staff are welcoming and friendly. We were seen five minutes late but that was ok. A bit pricey for a health check and vaccination of our cat. We weren't in with the vet more than five minutes. But I suppose all vet consultations are expensive wherever you go.

Took my dog in told me he had stage 6 heart condition Absolutely terrible charge me £120 for a scan that took 2 minutes to tell me I would have to go to another vets for another scan that would cost £1200, in a weeks time,it’s all money that keeps them in a good life while are pets suffer,all vets are the same company,something need to change hear serious issues with them and no one care again,but after I found another vets that was only £300 for the mri scan so sickening

Our vets practice has the most lovely staff. Every time we visit, they are always running on time, so engaging with my children and I don’t feel rushed at all, I can ask all of my questions. My cat did a wee once during the appointment and they were so understanding and helped me clean it up and gave me some puppy pads to make sure my cat was comfortable on the way home. We also booked my cat in for a spay three times because my cat was accidentally fed on the morning of the operation twice!!! They were so understanding and rebooked two times. They did not make us feel bad at all even though we had to cancel twice. They said it happens all the time and they did not charge us for the two cancelled appointments. So grateful to have people who genuinely care about our pets, who are excited to see our pets and engage so well with my children. I would recommend them every time.

Quality of service does not match the expense that's why im canceling the health care plan subscription there are better vets and cheaper prices out there.
