Medivet Croydon 263 Addiscombe Road, Croydon CR0 7HX

"Appalling. Every single time we have been here it seems as though they are trying to upsell. Our pet was limping so we took him to be examined for this specific issue - ended up recommending full chest X-ray, keeping on a drip and monitoring overnight. In fact, when we took him to the animal hospital the following day, there were so many things on the list that they couldn’t figure out why he was initially referred. On another occasion, he had inhaled a foreign object and had been sneezing, they couldn’t find the foreign object and suggested it might be various other life threatening conditions including cancer. We found said foreign object at home a couple of days later without any specialist equipment. He was fine - it was a 6’’ long piece of grass. Every single time it has been over-dramatic suggestions that have been completely unnecessary and furthermore cause the pet and us more distress and upheaval than if they’d have just checked the immediate problem and potential related causes properly. It seems very much like - throw everything at this issue and hope something sticks. When we asked if this was all really necessary and we would like for the immediate problem to be addressed we were told - if you are financially unable then you should take him to an animal charity. No, we will just take him to another vet, thanks."

"Very lovely staff and vets. They're all so incredibly nice to all the pets that come in."

"We’ve been with this vets practice for 23 years. They have seen us through all sorts of cat, dog & hamster emergencies & have never failed to disappoint. They care so much & always know which one of our multiple animals we are talking about even from saying the first name of the pet! We wouldn’t go anywhere else!"

"It's such a lovely Vet. Friendly staff, clean practice. Glad we found this vet. They send out reminders and emails to keep you updated and help you keep track. Very happy with them. From a happy Cat owner"

"I recently took my Lily to have her spay surgery and all the staff especially the vet Magdalena was very professional, excellent and very caring with my dog as always, thank you so much!"
