Clinic Overview

Wight Vets Ltd is a veterinary practice offering care in-clinic and, based on its own site summary and multiple reviews, via home visits and online as well. It’s not stated whether it’s part of a corporate group.

What the practice appears set up for (from reviews) includes

  • Mobile/out-of-home care: several owners describe vets coming out quickly, including a case where a dog was assessed at home and then booked for surgery the next morning, returning home the same day.
  • Routine and ongoing medical care: owners mention annual check-ups and booster vaccinations, managing a recurring condition with examinations, medication and possible blood tests, and arranging worming tablets in advance by email.
  • Urgent help: one review describes staff stopping immediately to assess a seriously injured cat and giving pain relief.

Feedback is mostly very positive about communication and gentleness with nervous animals, but one recent review describes a serious breakdown around rabies vaccination records/Animal Health Certificate paperwork, with the owner saying they weren’t warned in advance that one certificate would be refused.

  • Lelayna (receptionist): mentioned by name for greeting a dog warmly on arrival and helping organise requested medication (worming tablets) after the owner emailed ahead.

Reviews

Google rating: 4.9 stars from 38 reviews. “”

  • Responsiveness and follow-through: examples include a home visit arranged “straight away,” then surgery the next morning with the dog home the same afternoon.
  • Communication and empathy: owners repeatedly mention supportive phone/email handling, taking time with anxious pets, and explaining things without rushing.
  • Practical organisation: one owner describes emailing ahead for worming tablets and finding them prepared on arrival.
  • A notable complaint about travel documentation: one reviewer says the practice refused to issue an Animal Health Certificate for one dog because the rabies vaccine was done elsewhere, and that this was only communicated at the appointment despite documents being sent days in advance—creating time pressure before travel.
