A local proficient and professional service that is very animal (and owner) friendly.

Reception is always clean & tidy. The staff are always tentative towards the animals. The vet was thorough during our appointment and explained everything. A good visit.

The Somerton practise has always been fantastic, welcoming, friendly, competent. They have always been open and honest about recommending treatment that is necessary, whilst also giving you further options to think about. The Dorchester out of hours which I used recently were outstanding also. The journey to Dorchester from Somerton is only 45 mins and easily reached on the outskirts of the town. I have no hesitation in recommending Somerton practise and their out of hours hospital in Dorchester. We are lucky to have such a great facility, here in Somerton and Dorchester.

Friendly staff would recommend the surgery for my cat don't go anywhere else

Disappointed with MediVet decision to change their out of hours for the Somerton Practice from Bridgwater to Dorchester . This equates to a round trip of 100 miles for me! Bridgwater was 20 mile round trip which is acceptable. I am told this has been done as the provider in Dorchester is much cheaper. I don't believe that this was the driver for the decision. This is not a service. I have therefore had to leave the Somerton Practice which has looked after me extremely well for nearly 20 yrs Not happy actually really sad!

My dog was taken out of my sight and came back with a black eye. When I questioned this, I was was told it must have happened on the journey in which is total rubbish. The vet was bad tempered and rude, and the remaining staff I have interacted with were just as abrupt. I do not recommend.
