The Best Veterinary Cares in Milborne St Andrew, Dorset, United Kingdom (2025)

Highly recommend using this practice

Excellent Vet. Responsive, caring and compassionate staff, they were great recently when looking after our dog.

My dog was spayed yesterday, as you can imagine I was very anxious. The nurse was excellent she explained exactly what was going to happen, she let me know when my dog came round from the operation and when I could collect her. The nurse brought her out to me and even carried her to the car. I cannot praise this nurse enough the operation went well and me dog is recovering well, so thank you to the vet and many thanks to all the staff. I can't recommend this practice enough especially after the problem with my last vet. Thank you

Our Tommy stuck a spikelet up his nose as we were queuing to get on the ferry back to France. We arrived at the clinic and everyone was absolutely superb with him and with us. Tommy is quite an excitable young dog and can be snappy when scared. No one judged him or us for it. They got his spikelet out and gave us clear instructions that they adapted to our ferry journey the next day. We are truly happy to have had our Tommy sorted by this team of very helpful people. Thanks !

This veterinary practice is not my usual vets (we are registered with one about 15 miles from home) but I needed my 13 year old dog to be seen quickly so took her locally to Vets4Pets Holes Bay. We saw a vet named Dan (NOT the owner, another Dan) who was absolutely brilliant. Very sadly, our dog was PTS but Dan was brilliant, before, during and after. We spoke at length, he didn’t rush me, time wasn’t an issue, he understood my concerns, he listened and advised with compassion. Absolutely brilliant vet. So on this one occasion we needed this surgery , the vet we saw was exemplary. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Vicky Effemy the vet nurse and also the receptionist (don’t know her name) I spoke to that morning, were incredibly comforting for which I am very grateful.

We had to say goodnight to our gorgeous girl Mimi last month, after 14yrs together. Medivet Dorchester was our 24hr emergency practice and saw Mimi within the hour Rita the duty vet was so compassionate. Rita tried her hardest to help Mimi and made sure we were fully informed of all possibilities. We unfortunately had to make the hard decision to say goodnight. Rita and the staff allowed us to spend the time to say our good nights before she left us and to stay during and after her leaving us. We cannot thank Rita and her team for all they did for us on that distressing evening. Our faith in the staff led us to leave our then practice and register our dogs with Dorchester Medivet

The staff at Dorchester Medivet were incredible with our 18 years old westipoo who unfortunately had to be put to rest on 1,09,2024 we are forever thankful for there kinds souls and support they gave when it was time to say goodbye to a family member Ted x bless all that work so hard around the clock to make sure our friends and company are taking care of in their last hours x thank you all staff xx Mr and Mrs Chris XxX

Very professional 👏 so lovely to our old Mr B

We are delighted to bring our gang 🐾 to Friars Moor, Blandford Forum. We relocated from South Africa🇿🇦 and brought them with us. All rescues and very happy in their new home 🏡. So far Cagney, Sunshine, Lilo, Stitch, and Van Goch have visited the team. Thanks for looking after them.

A very good vets overall as we have had no issues with the service. The staff are very helpful and friendly. 10 out of 10

Thank you Castle Vets. My dog had a half-yearly checkup today. The vet has just called me with the results of a blood test for a potential issue identified in the routine assessment. I'm impressed at the scrutiny, turnaround in the labwork, and the follow-up.

My Nelly has had a few issues and had to have an emergency op due to eating a fish hook! She was referred by Castle to a vet hospital and it was arranged very quickly. I can't fault the team at both Dorchester Road and Poundbury at all. Reasonably priced in vet terms I think and I would highly recommend.

My 16 yr old cat became suddenly very ill, I rang Castle vets and I saw us the same day. They were incredibly caring and reassuring towards my pets needs. Reception staff are also amazing and very friendly. I will never take any of my pets any where else. Thank you Castle vets.

Since I first enlisted the care and attention this veterinary process gives is phenomenal. They took fantastic care of my mums dog and handled her with care and sensitivity. Unfortunately, my mums dog Roma had to be laid to rest and The Kingston Veterinary helped her to rest. After a couple of weeks they even sent my mum a sympathy card and some plant seeds so that roma could live on through the life of the earth and have a beautiful remembrance. Thank you very much Kingston Veterinary for all your support and expertise - mentally and physically.

Very nice people. Quite pricey. Don't think the dog is worth it.

Very good Vets , very friendly staff and Veterinarians, very clean definitely recommend 👍😁

Had great experience as a new client, with v small Dog. Great atmosphere, very knowledgeable vet and friendly, supportive service.

The team have always been excellent with our late cat Sammy over the 18 years of his life, thank you for everything

Always has the pets' best interest at heart, rather than the profit driven experience I've had at other multi national owned vetinary surgeries. Good common sense approach, kind and caring.

Exceptional Veterinary Practice. Although I have been a client for many years, my dog Jack seldom needs care. Recently however he was suffering a gland problem.. Jack is an imported rescue and the BVA recommend a safeguarding procedure (blood test) prior to any surgery in such cases due to possible Brucellosis infection. I was uncertain of the benefits, but was able to have a practical and sensible discussion with Giles, beforehand Jack had the procedure under sedation & Giles whipped out a loose back tooth too. Jack is not insured, but I was given an estimate of cost at our initial consultation which matched our final invoice. Thank you Giles, it seems to have done the trick and Jack has forgiven you (almost!)

These vets are the best I have used. All of the vets and staff are so friendly, caring and compassionate. We recently had to have our handsome boy put to sleep our dog and ourselves could not have been in better hands. A big thank you to all of you for everything.

All the vets seem very pleasant and helpful, the nurses likewise. Separate waiting area for cats/dogs works well. A nice car park at Wincanton rounds off a satisfying experience.

Always go to Southill and the care is exemplary every time. Huge thank you to the whole team.

Exceptional care and attention. Always friendly and welcoming.

Excellent place and people. Very helpful. Been using them for 30 years

Very professional team who treated our elderly cat quickly and kindly taking time to do the correct diagnostic tests and swiftly making the right diagnosis. They helped us with the insurance claim and I feel sure they will be as efficient with the ongoing treatment.

Took my cat Willow to Southill Vets (Gillingham) and the reception lady was lovely as was the vet. Both utterly professional, friendly and very welcoming. Thank you - great service 🙏🏻

The staff are so caring I could not fault the care we have received.
