Medivet Wool

Fantastic experience: Professional, caring team. Never a problem getting an appointment. The practice is always clean, bright and welcoming.

Fantastic experience: Very welcoming friendly staff.

Fantastic experience: Whilst on holiday recently in Dorset we needed to take our little dog Jake to a vet and managed to get an appointment at Medivet Wool on the same day I telephoned. We met with Mr Buchan who was amazing, he took time to listen to us and did a thorough examination of Jake's eye. He made a fuss of Jake and talked to him, which our vets don't do. This is how vets should be and wish we could have Mr Buchan as our vet. Definitely go back when on holiday and in need of a vet.

Positive experience: Pleasant staff on reception .comfortable seating while you wait

Fantastic experience: Our first visit to this vets Extremely friendly and helpful Vet Camilla was very good our cat seemed to think so to Definitely will be going back with our Dog as well

Fantastic experience: Once again Medivet Wool has been amazing. I was able to book an appointment to be seen straight away as my French Bulldog Bonnie had been unwell overnight. The vet diagnosed and resolved Bonnie’s problem quickly and effectively. The receptionist was extremely helpful and cheerful and the surgery welcoming and clean. Thank you once again everyone

Fantastic experience: Always helpful. Lovely staff . Nothing is too much trouble

Fantastic experience: As always a good experience for both my cat and me. There is a separate and comfortable " cat corner " where cats are not disturbed by other animals. The appointment was on time and my cat was well cared for and thoroughly examined. ( It was a routine check up.) He thoroughly enjoyed the care and attention. The vet found and removed a tiny tick and very kindly carried my heavy pet carrier out and put it in my car. I have been bringing my pets to this surgery for about 28 years and have always been happy with the care they've received and the friendliness and support I've been given.

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff and great service..

Fantastic experience: Andy Buchan was brilliant with our very nervous, vet-hating Parson Russell. Very patient, calm and understanding. Gave very good advice. Would definitely continue to use this practice.

Fantastic experience: Appointment on time, friendly reception staff and engaging vet

Fantastic experience: Had a brilliant experience. Camille the vet is so kind and informative and reassuring. The receptionist as well who was on today was so kind and helpful. My pet was very comfortable and happy there. Felt like we were really being looked after. Thankyou.

Fantastic experience: I have nothing but praise for the Medivet team at wool.There care and compassion are second to none.I have been a client of there's for many years now and they have taken care of my dogs to the highest standard. Thank you so much Andy and the team.

Fantastic experience: Couldn’t fault the service given!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely recommend this vets . Not only do they look after our baby’s but they also look after the whole family , it’s warm and welcoming nothing is too much trouble all my babies love going to the vets it’s not a traumatic experience at all .

Negative experience: After having a few issues with this practise (high expense and poor quality of health checks), our recent interaction with vet Holly Asquith-Barnes during a vaccination appointment for our dog has secured our decision in leaving this practise, which is a real shame as the rest of the team have been really helpful and friendly up until this point. Despite our last appointment only being a few days before, Dr Asquith-Barnes had not properly read the notes left by the last vet we saw regarding our dog’s pain trial and was unaware that the pain trial was being provided by that practise. She proceeded to administer his vaccination in the leg he has been experiencing pain in. Her overall manner with our dog was incredibly rude, pretentious and unprofessional. People shouldn’t be in the animal care industry if they’re more focused on how ‘well-behaved’ your dog is during an appointment than how they can provide them with help and care when they are struggling. Having just turned 2, our young dog still finds trips to the vet very exciting and struggles to contain his excitement around new people - something we are working on with regular training but he can still become overwhelmed in exciting situations. Many dogs struggle to stay perfectly still while being examined, and Dr Asquith-Barnes made it perfectly clear that our dog’s excitement was not welcome in her treatment room (following a rude comment and sour facial expression when he jumped up to say hello to her twice). I’m not condoning the behaviour, but it can surely at least be considered as an occupational hazard, especially considering the excitement of the environment. We’ve worked really hard to help train our dog for these situations, but we felt as if our dog and ourselves as dog owners were being judged for him not having perfect behaviour. It is worth noting that all other vets we’ve seen at this practise have handled our dog’s excitable personality in such a professional and friendly manner, helping to settle him and make him comfortable enough to be examined. Along with the high expense and inconsistency in communication between the vet staff, this encounter has lost our faith in the practise, so we won’t be returning. We suggest that if you are a regular client, appointments with Dr Asquith-Barnes are avoided in particular.

Fantastic experience: I had an appointment within an hour and a half. As usual, first class service from Andy.

Fantastic experience: A professionally run Small Animal Veterinary firm.

Fantastic experience: Good all round care

Fantastic experience: Always helpful, caring & professional.

Fantastic experience: I do understand the need for ratings and publicity but this practice has an excellent reputation and never fails and is the best place to take your pets. All the vets look after our pets with confidence and care. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Staff are all really friendly and helpful. I wouldn’t hesitate to take my pets to them. They have helped us through some hard times too which we really appreciate

Fantastic experience: First Rate Vets grate care and service.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic practice, amazing staff, from the front of house to the nurses and vets. Always a warm and friendly greeting

Negative experience: Been with them for 6 years and never had a problem. Tried to cancel my plan today and the head receptionist (or just the old one) had a proper attitude about her of which I did not appreciate. Shame because everyone else is lovely. Will be leaving and going elsewhere because of it.

Fantastic experience: Vet Andy's care and compassion with rescue Oscar over the past three years has been amazing giving this little dog a chance to live a normal life. This is a very friendly, caring practice and I would like to thank every member of staff for the care of my dogs over the years, cannot recommend you high enough.

Fantastic experience: Holly and an experienced exotic animal vet is quite simply outstanding. Her knowledged matched with her great levels of empathy have carried my Mum and I through such hard times of late. I would trust my guinea pigs with anyone else. She is a real life angel in vet's uniform. Thank you. Also thank you to the efficiency and kindness of the reception staff. You are all unbelievable xxxxxx

Fantastic experience: Excellent practice. Always very good with all my pets. Thankyou so much

Fantastic experience: Amazing first experience both for us and our new Puppy. Warm, welcoming and above all reassuring. Thank you to the whole team.

Negative experience: Somehow missed a tumour in our cat. Shortly after a second visit (when the tumour was missed again ) she became very ill and we took her to another vet for a second opinion. By then it was too late to save her. To add further to the pain, they keep texting us reminders for her flee treatment.

Fantastic experience: Everyone at this vets is helpful, thoughtful and professional, as well as being friendly, kind and caring. From the reception team, to the nurses and vets they are all special and make what can be a very traumatic time much more bearable. It seems that nothing is too much trouble and our pets, and we, are in the safest hands. The area for cats is quiet and calmer. Our cat Mooli has had several visits recently, had surgery, and follow up visits, and although clearly scared, he has allowed the vet to treat him, and examine him , and remained calm and cooperative ! Andrew Buchan has the nicest way with Mooli. Thanks. After treatment, Mooli is happy to be friendly to the other staff ! We are very thankful for having such an excellent vet clinic .

Fantastic experience: Wonderful service. All staff caring special thank you to Andy who was so gentle thoughtful & caring with my scared dog. He was brilliant

Fantastic experience: All at Medivet wool were brilliant with Tess, our inherited cocker spaniel. She was pretty nervous every time - but everyone took time with her. We were new pet owners - and they guided us through what was needed.

Fantastic experience: We have been going to Andy for almost 10 years now. We are so happy with the vets, his treatment, the welcoming staff. We have taken many dogs to see him over the years, and recommended to friends too. Absolutely the best vet in the area

Fantastic experience: Freddie was treated brilliantly and with great kindness. The reception staff were really friendly towards us and Freddie.

Fantastic experience: Andy, our Medivet vet in Wool, is the best vet we have had. He has looked after our little labradoodle for 15 years with knowledge, understanding and kindness. Our only complaint would be that since Medivet took over, the costs of everything from consultations to medicines have shot up by about 300%. I think these costs are now a little extreme.

Fantastic experience: Excellent staff. Pity about the cost of a small 5g tube of cream. £30'ish from Medivet £13'ish from Viovet online. How can Medivet justify this huge discrepancy in price as I am sure Viovet is not selling at a loss!?

Fantastic experience: Helpful, freindly and brilliant with our new labrador puppy.

Fantastic experience: Always very professional but down to earth.ready to answer any questions in a friendly understanding way.

Fantastic experience: Medivet Wool Dorset are fabulous. All the vets we see are amazing and I am confident in their ability to give the best veterinary care to my precious dog.

Fantastic experience: Always easy to get an appointment, every vet, nurse and clerical member of the team is excellent.

Fantastic experience: Brought my Doberman Zola in last week . From initial contact , vet hospital in Dorchester and then further treatment in wool ...Absolutely faultless , couldn't ask for more ... As a footnote you dealt with my Fathers Dalmation , Ozzy a couple of months ago . He had to be put to sleep unfortunately at the ripe age of 15. Thankyou for the care of him during his life and also at the end .....

Fantastic experience: They looked after Radish for 12 years and gave him a peaceful end at the right time. They were very kind to us too. Now they are looking after Noah.

Fantastic experience: 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.

Fantastic experience: Lovely vet she was so good with my reactive pooch

Fantastic experience: Excellent practice. Everyone is always caring and professional.

Fantastic experience: Could not have asked for a more approachable and knowledgeable vet

Fantastic experience: 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.
