GBDO NOT USE THESE VETS!!!! DO NOT USE THESE VETS!!!!! Issue one: Vet would only write a prescription for one month’s supply of medication, despite my dog being on this medication for years! Which meant I then needed to order 3 prescriptions after only one month!!! Issue two: Unbeknown to me when I collected the prescriptions on Saturday he had only validated the prescriptions for one month which meant me having to pay the full three months supply of medication x 3 in one go, rather than validating it for the minimum of three months (some vets validate them for six months) in order for the online supplier to send these out in 3 monthly instalments. I rang the surgery to speak to someone about getting the prescription expiry date extended as the amount of money to pay in one go was unachievable for me, but the vet flatly refused!!!! This has demonstrated Local Vet’s motivation of misleading pet owners into thinking you are providing a good value service and that you care about the animals that you see, but in truth its just about how much money you can get out of people! You really should be ashamed of yourselves, especially in these unprecedented time of price increases, but I guess you have taken full advantage of this ! If I had the facility to give 0 star I would!

GBLocal vets oldbury Local vets oldbury Wouldn’t even send my pet goldfish there. Staff are rude including the owners. My dog was scanned for 5 puppies on day 44 - at this point they can’t be absorbed. Left my dog there for her c-section at 5:55pm we had to leave as was out of hours to come back and be told she only had 2 pups. None were dead and there was no sacs inside her. I was then allowed to watch the cctv the following day but was told if I watch it I can not return for any other treatment - absolutely fine because I wasn’t going to anyway. When I waited for 20 minutes to see the CCTV I could only see from 7:15pm-7:45pm but was told this is a 2 and a half hour procedure. When I asked consistently how long does it take to sedate them I was ignored every single time. The owners of this place have their own bulldogs which is why they would keep puppies and KC register them off their own dogs. I strongly believe all the staff are also in on this. Will never be returning again!!!

GBA nice website but feel that it could be more user friendly.. I really like the idea of localvets.com and enjoy listening to the calls when appointments are being made. I would be happier if I received some sort of notification whenever an appointment had been made through the website without having to go and look for them. Maybe an email notification? Right now it is challenging to remember to check on these and I am only reminded about them when I receive notification that money has been debited from the account !

GBHelpful We started local vets to help see where calls get generated from and where we are pulling business from. Since working with local vet/ veterinarians.com we have enjoyed listening to our conversations and seeing where we can make improvements and how this type of service can help the clinic. They are working on a better software to help make sure we don't get billed for new clients that are previous clients and not getting credit for those calls and I have to put in multiply requests or call instead.
