When my little Romanian Rescue Flora ate 2 strong painkillers recently , I was in a complete panic, convinced she was going to die. From my initial panicked phone call, through her examination, treatment and recovery at the surgery, all staff were brilliant, so calm, reassuring and non judgemental. Special thanks to Nikki and David.

I have been taking my cats to Arnwood/medivet for quite a few years now. I love the staff there...the vets, veterinary nurses, receptionists....they are always friendly and helpful and caring! We recently had to take one of my cats for a big operation on his ear which was obviously very stressful. ..the staff were so good and reassuring and just took the upmost care of our puss. So yes I would highly recommend!

All the staff who are so nice and caring to my rabbit Jasper at his frequent teeth trims. He particularly loved all the attention from the Medivet ladies yesterday ❤️🐰

I'm currently still in tears from earlier but I just want to say a massive thank you to all the staff for all the help and support for me and midget, my little baby kitten who had to be put to sleep. I know everyone was wishing him to get better but he was just too poorly. I can't remember her name but the lady who came in after to speak to me was amazing and I could see she really cared. I really appreciate the time and effort given over the past week but he's in no more pain. ❤️❤️❤️

Lovely nurses who fed me treats until my humans collected me and took me home.

Can’t say enough about the staff at arnwood. Kate at Netherfield has been amazing with me today, never mind my dogs excellent treatment. We’ve been coming here for 14 years and the staff are amazing. We mainly go to Netherfield but have been to sherwood and Arnold often. I am a frequent flyer but they always take time to speak and reassure you as well as care for your dog.

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

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 �
