We have been registered here for a few years with 3 different dogs. They have always received the best care, attention and treatment. We moved away from the area a year ago but stayed with this practice for our latest member of the family as we know he will get the best from all of the staff

Seems everyone is scared of leaving a bad review! Perhaps in case their pet gets bad treatment from this surgery in the future? As a concerned dog parent, I made an email enquiry about their xray procedure and the reply was bordering on rude. I was even told by Beth to direct any questions to the PDSA and take my dog there. Very unhelpful and unprofessional. I have just read some other 1 star reviews where people have been told to not to use Medivet Gravesend again. Perhaps they have an excess of money, or simply don't like anyone who asks too much of them? There are plenty of vets in the area - think twice before you choose this one please!

As I'm not medically trained I wasn't contacted to ask "why is he here" so the time was used doing something else than what was planned. The personal touch has gone, and I've been using this practice for 14 years. Will try to avoid now. Very displeased , and the complaints procedure was requested but not forthcoming!!
