Andy was really amazing with my extremely anxious rescue girl. He is so kind, empathetic, gentle and kind. He ensured that my girl was as prepared as possible with pre-appointment sedation and then assessed her anxiety and tailored the visit to cause her the least stress possible. He couldn’t have done better for her. Thank you Andy.

From reception to seeing a vet is always a positive experience. I always know that my animals are given the best care possible and they always improve with the treatment given. I also love how empathic everyone is, I have two anxious pets and their anxiety is always taken into account even without me asking.

From the initial assessment, to surgery and aftercare, Wool Medivet practice has been fantastic. My French bulldog Bonnie, who is a diva, received the best care from all of the team and even had a heart on her bandage for Valentine’s Day ❤️ Everyone was so empathetic and showed concern to both the diva and myself! Thank you 😊
