Yeovil Vets4Pets Ltd

Yeovil Vets4Pets Ltd operates under the Vets for Pets brand; the clinic website describes it as locally owned and a modern, well‑equipped practice. It appears set up for routine care plus diagnostics and surgery, with facilities listed including an in‑house lab, digital X‑ray/ultrasound, operating theatre, hospital ward, isolation unit, oxygen chamber, and separated dog and cat wards. The practice also states there is 24‑hour emergency service cover available via phone when the clinic is closed.

From the latest reviews available, owners most often mention getting same‑day appointments and staff accommodating challenging pets (one reviewer says their reactive dog is “always catered for”). There is also a serious negative account involving a guinea pig where the reviewer alleges misdiagnosis, rough handling, and that the branch doesn’t have exotic vets—suggesting owners with “exotic” pets may want to clarify species support before booking.
