Medivet Standish / Standish Veterinary Centre

Medivet Standish (Standish Veterinary Centre) is part of the Medivet group and promotes access to 24/7 emergency care (with a stated overnight emergency consultation fee). In recent reviews, owners repeatedly describe staff handling difficult moments and anxious pets with patience—for example, supporting a family through a pet’s final visit, and carefully treating a cat “terrified of the vets” who “responded so well.” Practical feedback includes a note that the waiting room feels very small when multiple animals are present.

Services

•24/7 emergency care (as described on the clinic’s website), with overnight emergency consultations available.
•Routine preventive care mentioned in reviews: annual health checks and injections.
•Minor aftercare mentioned in reviews: stitch removal.
•Veterinary Nurse Training facility (listed in the clinic data).

Pricing

•Overnight emergency consultation fee: £130 for consultations between 7pm and 9am (as stated on the clinic website).

People

•Hilary (vet): repeatedly named in reviews as a clinician families ask for specifically. Owners mention long-term continuity of care (“throughout [a pet’s] life right until the end”), emotional support during euthanasia/final moments, and calm handling of a very anxious cat.
•Reception team: described as friendly, though one reviewer noted the receptionist seemed “really busy.”

Reviews

Google rating: 4.8 stars from 365 reviews. - Gentle, supportive care in serious situations (a dog “very poorly”; end-of-life comfort for both pet and owner).

•Clear communication during appointments (a vet explaining what she was doing during a health check/injections).
•Careful handling for nervous or challenging pets (including a fearful cat and a rescue dog attending for stitch removal).
•Practical downside raised: a very small waiting room, which one owner found difficult with a large dog and multiple animals present.

We have always seen Hilary throughout Ruby’s life right until the end. She is a very friendly, passionate and caring vet. She goes above and beyond. She’s been amazing with all our fur babies in the family. Not only did she comfort Ruby in her final moments, she also comforted me. We will be forever grateful for what Hilary has done for Ruby over the years. ❤️

Medivet Standish is excellent in my opinion. All of the staff are friendly and caring, but Hilary is exceptional. She treated one of my cats who can be a real handful (terrified of the vets) with such care, and he responded so well. It was very much appreciated.

I had taken my 4 year old labour for his annual health check and injections. The vet we saw was amazing. She explained everything she was doing and was very friendly. Will definitely ask for her again. The receptionist was friendly but really busy. The reason I only gave a 7 was because the waiting room is very small and with a verity of animals in there and with a large black lab who just wants to play play play, not very practical.
