MediVet Uppermill is the best vet we have ever used. You can tell that the vet Maegan truly loves animals, and she deals with our cats very well. She is also really easy to talk to and happy to answer any questions or concerns. We are also always seen on time and have never had to wait longer than a couple of minutes to be seen. The receptionists are also lovely and have been very easy for me to speak to when making appointments or ordering flea and worm treatments.

I have used the Saddleworth Medivet services for both my dog and 3 cats, the service is first class from checking in at reception to seeing the vet, they are all polite and professional and will answer any queries/concerns that you may have. They are a great Team.

Shocking! I had stated my dog needed allergy meds. I was in and out within 30 seconds the vet did not check over my dog and relied on my information then told me they don’t hold the medication and I would have to come back but then still went onto charge me £49! And said I need to make another appointment and pay £148. Daylight robbery and my dog left with no treatment ! Avoid

First time visiting and felt completely ripped off. I had stated my dog had allergies so I would think that you would hold the injections in clinic. I was told I would have to come back once it’s ordered plus charged £48 for not even 2 minutes with the vet and no thorough check just went off my word.

Friendly, professional and knowledgeable as usual. Date of visit 1/7/2025 with Hunter for annual check up and injections.
