Medivet Crowle

Medivet Crowle is part of the Medivet group (a network of 400+ practices). The practice is set up for routine consultations and ongoing care (including chronic conditions), with access to Medivet’s 24-hour emergency care; the website states a nationwide overnight emergency consultation fee of £130 for consultations between 7pm and 9am. In recent reviews, owners repeatedly mention thorough examinations with clear explanations, and several describe practical, problem-solving appointments (prescriptions issued; dew claws attended to). There’s also a clear note of friction from one owner who says a test was carried out without costs being discussed first, adding £40+ to the bill.
