***ASK FOR WRITTEN PRESCRIPTIONS*** Their mark up can be as much as 300% on medication. LOVE LOVE LOVE Sue and Caroline, their all are on the ball and their services are great. If they can't treat your pet they have great recommendations of specialist in the area. I particularly love the fact that the yearly nurse check up can be done in your home which is beneficial for us as we have 6pets registered with them.

I’m sharing this because what happened to my aunt and her beloved dog at Animed veterinary hospital ( Botley Road, Shedfield SO32 2JG) is unacceptable and no pet owner should have to experience this. After a procedure using anaesthetic, her dog was demanded to be discharged at 8 pm — despite being clearly very unwell and having not been to the toilet at all since the procedure. My aunt asked if it might be better for the vet to keep him in overnight for monitoring, but was told there was “no clinical need.” She was forced to take him home alone, late at night, and spent the entire night watching her dog panting, distressed, and in obvious pain. She was unable to administer the medication (pain relief and appetite encouragment) as he was so poorly and couldn't stand up or eat or drink at all. When he was taken to Andersonmoores veterinary specialists the next day, he was diagnosed with a severe bone infection that should have been treated when he was first admitted to Animed. Sadly, it was too late and her precious companion had to be put to sleep. This is not just a tragic loss; it’s a failure of care and judgment that caused unnecessary suffering for both My Aunt and her precious dog. We trusted this vet practice, and they let us down in the worst possible way. I want to know how this happened and what is being done so no other pet or owner has to endure this nightmare. #PetSafety #VetAccountability #AnimalWelfare #DoBetter

My poor kitten was born with a purple eye I took him in to be check when it become swollen, they sent me home with eye drops and orals medication, next day I’m calling to be told they couldn’t really do anything until middle of the week I phoned around a fair few other vets and charities as to remove the eye it was costing £1800 nearly but it got so bad over night I was told by rspca and cats protection to take him back in as they have a duty of care even if they went direct through my insurance, which they wouldn’t as I got there I saw the vet and he already had the form for me to sign to say they will be the new owners as it’s best interest for him, I didn’t believe this was the case but I needed him to be out of pain so by guilt tripping me I had no option but to sign him over 😪 so now I no nothing at all if he’s out of pain and if he’s ok I just wish they had went direct through my insurance or set a payment plan for me which I would of paid asap I hope there looking after you Dobbie boy 💙
