I've never been to a vet that treats you more like family than a client staff are so friendly and so helpful nothing seems to much ask them I really do feel at ease leaving my dog there plus my dog has anxiety but never threats when I leave him which puts my mind at rest as a veterinary you are tops

Recently our cat was diagnosed with feline cancer and the options of her care where explained in detail, the outcome was palliative care. When the time came to say goodbye obviously emotions where fraught. The whole team at Sherwood we’re kind and respectful that our choices were listened to and carried out. We later received a card and some forget-me-not seeds from the practice, which I thought was an action that showed class, understanding and genuine care, not only for the pet but for us the owners. We would like to thank all involved, because it was a team effort and wish you all well. Many thanks & kind regards. R.Byrne

I am always assured of the high quality of care given to my pets. The staff are always friendly and do their upmost to meet the needs of me and my pets.

All three vets, Mateo, Jacob and David were kind and very thorough while dealing with my dog and getting to the bottom of his problem. Also showed him respect and were caring in their dealings with myself. Also Diane, the receptionist is lovely

although I have used this vets in sherwood, for 13 years now and always been happy, today I had a couple of concerns regarding my dog, which I raised during his check up and booster, the young spanish(?) vet we saw was absolutely fantastic in taking the time in helping and reassuring me, service that has gone above and beyond, thank you.

I've been meaning to write a review for a long time but when someone asked for a recommendation for a vet on the Sherwood community Facebook page, it motivated me to pop over here to leave a review as well as giving my recommendation. We have been with Medivet (formerly Arnwood Veterinary Clinic) for approximately 18 years and I can't praise them enough. For a long time, they cared for our beautiful cat, Stone. One thing I will always remember is that, as Stone headed into extreme old age (22), I became very upset at one appointment about whether I would recognise when she had had enough. The vet I saw then told me he would always advocate for Stone and tell me if he felt I was putting my needs before hers. He told me he would never let her suffer and he knew I wouldn't either when the time came. He also reminded me that I knew her better than anyone and that he respected that. He was right. When the time came, we both knew and agreed. Stone was eventually put to sleep by a lovely female vet (I never asked her name, sorry!) at home on her favourite spot on the sofa. It was the kindest, most gentle death you could wish for and the compassion shown by the vet was second to none. When I came into the clinic to collect Stone's ashes, the staff hugged me, gave me tissues and let me sob until I was ready to drive home. In the three years since then, I've attended the clinic with various guinea pigs. David, in particular, is very knowledgeable as an 'exotic' vet and has helped us through a number of ailments. Last year, we got a beautiful rescue dog who is very scared of people, especially men. When I explained this to the ever-helpful and understanding receptionist, she immediately suggested that Willow see Emily, a female vet, and that she could have an appointment when no-one else would be in the waiting room. Emily took time to find out more about Willow and how to make her feel confident. Her first appointment went brilliantly. I am so grateful. My feeling is that all the staff are passionate about animals and their carers and do truly advocate for them. The prices are very reasonable in comparison to other practices and the vets seem willing to talk on the phone if you're not sure about the best course of action. Thank you so much for everything.

Although I write this review with a heavy heart, I just want to say thank you to the vets who took care of our wonderful dog Archie. I want all the vets (Jakub, Matteo and Kara) and nursing staff who tried their hardest to help him and also supported us throughout our final days to know how much we appreciate their care and compassion through the hardest decision we have made. I would also like to say thank you for taking your time to send us a hand written card which I received today �

I have just been to the practice in sherwood as my dog required an operation. I usually use the practice in arnold as ths is the nearest to me. But in both practices i always find the vets and staff extremely friendly and helpful. Nothing is too much trouble
