Medivet Sherwood

Medivet Sherwood is part of the Medivet group and combines that wider network support with a practice feel that reviewers say still feels personal and familiar. It offers routine preventive care, dental work, and support for nervous or reactive pets, with owners describing a calm, patient approach. The wider Medivet network also provides access to 24-hour emergency care via Medivet emergency centres.

Services

• •Routine preventive care: Annual vaccinations and flea treatment are specifically mentioned, with owners also describing thorough check-ups and time to discuss pets’ progress during appointments.
• •Dentistry and procedures: Dental treatment is a clear area of work here. Owners mention feeling reassured when leaving pets for treatment, including one recent review about a dog recovering well after having all teeth removed.
• •Rabbit care: Reviews describe sensitive handling for rabbits, including a floor-scale weigh-in, careful examination, and nail clipping to reduce stress.
• •Support for nervous or reactive pets: Owners repeatedly mention gentle handling for fearful dogs, including desensitisation-style visits to help pets get used to the consult room, needles, and the vet team before vaccinations.
• •Stress-reducing practice setup: One owner specifically appreciated separate dog and cat areas to help make visits calmer.
• •Emergency care access: 24-hour emergency care is available through Medivet emergency centres, rather than necessarily on site at this branch.

Pricing

Published prices suggest the clinic sits below average, based on a partial sample of comparable services. The main clearly published figure is Medivet’s overnight emergency consultation fee of £130 for 7pm to 9am. One recent reviewer also said they had not felt pressure to buy add-ons or extra procedures during visits.

Named staff mentioned by owners include Morena (vet), who is praised for her patience and gentle handling with a very frightened dog, and Rachel and Nikki, who were thanked for helping an owner feel at ease when leaving their dog for dental treatment. Reviews also describe the wider team as kind, friendly, and good at remembering owners and pets by name.
