Medivet Tyldesley

We unfortunately needed to get our hamster put to sleep today. The vet was very friendly and supportive and the receptionists were also very pleasant and easy to deal with at a difficult time. God bless Mr Stripe xxx

Our baby girl Daisy passed away recently and all the staff at medivet were absolutely amazing with the care and compassion that they gave Daisy during her time there. Special thanks to vet Maria and Emily for going above and beyond not just with Daisy but also with us as a family aswell. You don't realise how much it meant to us. I would definitely recommend this Vets to anyone. Thank you again from Rob, Mandy, Daisy and family xxx

Fabulous service from the initial consultation to the actual procedure then aftercare given. A huge thank- you to Victor and also to Katie for looking after our mini dachshund and reassuring us throughout his procedure, it's very much appreciated. 😊

Barnie would like to say a big big thank you to Emily and the team for looking after his poorly paw after he stood on some glass. He loved coming to the vets to have his bandaged changed, as he got lots of fuss, attention…..and back plenty of back scratches from Emily and the team. As his human parents (Lisa & Liz) we would like to say thank you also, you’ve all been superb with him. Barnie looks forward to seeing you all again for his annual boosters. X

Truly incompetent vets. NHS style of do the bare minimum, let the problem deteriorate, then treat the flare and not the cause. I have brought my dog here since he was a puppy, the vets never truly gave me advice for how to manage his chronic issues beyond prescribing steroids and antibiotics when I needed them. As a result his condition has deteriorated under their care in a way that could have been avoided. I would do my own endless research on how to treat it myself at home, and I would bring up my findings to the vet and they would simply say “no don’t do that” and not give me any alternative, just give him steroids and antibiotics now he’s past the point of no return. No advice on how to prevent it happening. Just found out that my dog has low grade infection this whole time for symptoms the vets also dismissed as “normal” and told me not to worry about. Would never come back here or recommend it to anyone. Very bare minimum standard of care. Worse than the NHS except you’re paying 100s of pounds every time you come. Once time they charged me a fortune for paracetamol and I didn’t realise till I got home. Genuinely hate this place and what they have done to my dog.

Always a friendly face at reception and wonderful approachable vets sharing their knowledge of any problems our animals have had. Thank you x

I brought my cat in earlier this year as noticed she was walking with a strange gait and drinking more water. Very quickly into the initial consultation the vet suspected diabetes, which came as a major surprise to me as all through her life my cat has had a relatively consistent and suitable diet. After initial blood & urine tests, diabetes was confirmed. This was an immensely stressful tome for me and Marilyn as her treatment plan required daily insulin injections and a prescribed diet. Learning the ropes with the medication and the required equipment, the knowledge required to treat a pet with this condition was overwhelming and this practice collectively helped me with that process from the start. Unfortunately, Marilyn very quickly went from tolerating her new treatment plan, to despising it, to the point where she would hide herself in the house to avoid injections, she was miserable and fretful, a combination due to both her illness, and the enormous change to her lifestyle especially surrounding my trustworthiness (I had become the mean woman with the needle!) Eventually it became unbearable for us both and I was in tears at home wanting to do what was right for my animal but without her being depressed and afraid. I said the same to the vets who suggested an alternate treatment that was quite new, high risk and not guaranteed to be effective for Marilyn. At this point i’d have tried anything so we did. Fast forward today, I have a very content cat who has returned to herself and managed to reverse the nerve damage to her legs. She’s purring most days and we’re back to being best friends. I was wholly not equipped to deal with her illness and it was a tough road travelled, but Tyldesley Vets have been absolutely fantastic in helping me from the very beginning. Never underestimate the stress of a poorly pet, and to find a vet who do that little bit more to help has been the silver lining needed! Thanks to everyone there - girls on the front desk are also amazing!
