We’re here for you 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. We have internal round-the-clock care at our 24-hour practice.
If you’re not sure whether your pet needs to see a vet, our quick and easy Symptom Checker can help. Answer a few simple questions about the signs of illness your pet is displaying and the checker will advise whether a trip to the vet is necessary and how urgently that specialist care should be given.
Led by Branch Partner Verity Griffiths, we're a kind and caring team based in Dorchester who are dedicated to delivering the best client and patient care. We offer a full range of veterinary services and facilities including advanced surgical techniques and excellent post-operative recovery care. We look forward to welcoming you to our practice and helping your pet lead a long and happy life.
Verity Griffiths has extensive experience in surgery and provides a number of advanced procedures. With the assistance of our diagnostic team and other surgeons we use digital radiography, ultrasound and arthroscopy to allow diagnosis of many challenging cases. We specialise in fracture repair, Cruciate Disease treatment, joint and spinal surgery.
At Medivet Dorchester we're proud to offer hydrotherapy and physiotherapy treatment. Physiotherapy is highly effective in relieving pain, restoring function and speeding up the recovery process. We also have an underwater treadmill and two qualified hydrotherapists. Find out more about hydrotherapy below.
Our vet Rik Vanhoutteghem has a special interest and post graduate qualifications in Veterinary Dermatology allowing accurate diagnoses of skin diseases, effective treatment and improved outcomes for pets and their owners.
