## Summary Medivet Beverley / Swanfield Veterinary Centre is part of the Medivet group. The evidence suggests a small-animal GP practice that also handles routine surgery and follow-up: one owner describes a spay where the team took prior stitch-failure concerns seriously and used “extra measures,” with the dog back to normal within ~72 hours and no discomfort noted. The website also promotes a **FREE Mobility Pain Check** (time-limited offer mentioned) and states an **overnight emergency consultation** option with a set price. Recent reviews are mostly positive about pets becoming comfortable with handling over repeat visits, but there are also complaints about pricing (e.g., ear drops) and a dispute over a “free first consultation” flyer. ## Services - **Overnight emergency consultations**: stated price of **£130** for consultations **between 7pm and 9am**; described as part of “24/7 emergency care across the UK” (as presented on the site summary). - **Mobility/pain assessment**: a **FREE Mobility Pain Check** is promoted (time-limited; “until 30 November” is mentioned in the site extract). - **Surgery (spaying)**: one review describes a spay with specific attention to preventing stitches coming undone, and positive post-op recovery. - **Treatment for ear issues**: one reviewer specifically mentions being sold **ear wax drops** (no further clinical detail provided). ## Pricing - **£130** overnight emergency consultation (stated as nationwide price for consultations between 7pm & 9am). - **£44** for **7 days’ ear wax drops** (from a recent review; described as “extortionate” by the reviewer). - **FREE Mobility Pain Check** (promoted on the website extract; time-limited offer mentioned). - One reviewer reports the clinic did **not** honour a “free first consultation” flyer as they expected, with the clinic saying it only applied to a basic check-up (this is a customer account; the flyer terms aren’t shown here). ## Reviews **Google rating: 4.7 stars from 38 reviews.** **Themes below are drawn from the latest written reviews available to us.** - Pets reportedly become more comfortable with the team over time; one owner notes their dog now “lets the team handle him” and is “keen to get in the door.” - A surgical case review highlights attention to prior complications (stitches previously coming undone elsewhere) and a smoother spay recovery this time. - Pricing concerns appear in specific examples: **£44** for a week of ear drops, and a strong complaint about a “free first consultation” promotion not being applied as the owner expected.
