## Summary Medivet Winterton / Winterswan Veterinary Centre is part of the **Medivet** corporate group. From the website, it promotes **24/7 emergency care** with a **nationwide out-of-hours consultation fee**, and has run a **FREE Mobility Pain Check** offer (time-limited, per the site copy). In recent reviews, owners most often describe routine appointments that run on time and cover the basics thoroughly (e.g., **vaccinations plus a full health check**), and some mention **same-day booking** for problems like a painful facial infection where the vet diagnosed quickly and prescribed medication. A minority of reviewers report the opposite experience on continuity and admin, including **not seeing the same vet** and problems getting **repeat medication supplied correctly**. ## Services - **Vaccinations** and **health checks** (mentioned together as a “thorough health check” done with vaccinations). - **General consultations** with advice on **weight management** (owner told their dog had no underlying ailment but needed to lose weight). - **Treatment for infections** (dog with a sore cheek infection diagnosed promptly and sent home with medication; improvement noted within 24 hours). - **Mobility/pain screening**: the website mentions a **FREE Mobility Pain Check** promotion (offer-based, not described as a permanent service). - **Emergency care (24/7)** is advertised by Medivet (see Pricing for the stated consultation fee window). ## Pricing - **£130** nationwide emergency consultation fee for consultations **between 7pm and 9am** (as stated on the Medivet site copy). ## People - **Tudor**: described by a cat owner as “very knowledgeable,” giving their cat attention during visits. - **Jess**: mentioned positively for helping a client when they were unhappy with medication supply/communication at this branch (no role stated in the review). - **Reception team**: repeatedly mentioned as friendly/helpful, including fitting a dog in **same day** and giving “really good advice,” and allowing an owner to be seen **earlier than the booked appointment**. ## Reviews **4.5 stars from 40 reviews.** Themes below are drawn from the latest written reviews available to us. - Appointments described as **starting on time**, with **calm handling during vaccinations** and checks. - **Access and flexibility:** one reviewer got a **same-day slot** for an infection; another was allowed to **arrive early** and be seen without issue. - **Communication:** owners mention clear explanations (including around **insurance options** and weight-related advice delivered tactfully). - **A notable complaint** contrasts with the above: one long-term client reports **lack of continuity (never the same vet)**, days when the branch isn’t open, and **problems supplying important medication** with no apology, while another staff member at a different Medivet site is credited with helping.

Why This Ranking:

Medivet Winterton in Scunthorpe holds a 4.5-star rating from 39 reviews. While it offers a welcoming atmosphere and knowledgeable staff, its lower review count slightly impacts its overall score compared to other clinics.
