Medivet Oakengates review

Ranked 1 of 9 in Emergency vets in Telford

Best overall emergency vet in Telford: published fees with named Shrewsbury night cover

Active

Trading as MEDIVET GROUP LIMITED · 77-79 Market St, Telford, Shropshire, TF2 6EA · Service area: Telford

Medivet Oakengates in short

Medivet Oakengates is a small-animal practice on Market Street, open weekdays to the evening and on Saturdays, and our review finds its openness the standout feature. Consultation, vaccination and neutering fees sit on its own page with VAT included, and night cover runs through a named Shrewsbury clinic with a stated consult fee and free phone assessment.

Customers rate Medivet Oakengates strongly, with 4.7 on Google from 277 reviews, the only review source on record. The RCVS register lists the practice as an accredited Small Animal General Practice with graduate development and nurse training roles. Against it, night cases mean a drive to Shrewsbury rather than staying in Telford, which our review counts as the main drawback for owners without easy transport.

Our verdict

Our judgement: this practice suits you if you want a full fee list up front and a named night clinic with a stated consult fee [1]. The RCVS listing, published email and long company record are on the public record [1] [3] [4]. Against it, night cases mean a trip to Shrewsbury, and Sunday opening is absent [1].
