Dog & Cat Vets in Bury

Medivet Ramsbottom is part of the Medivet group in Bury, Greater Manchester. The practice offers routine preventive care, nurse clinics, diagnostics and surgical treatment, with in-house laboratory facilities, ultrasound and X-rays available on site. Out-of-hours care is provided by Armac Veterinary Clinic, and recent feedback regularly highlights clear communication, accommodating appointments and a kind, helpful team.

The main published figure available is an out-of-hours emergency consultation from £100 via Armac Pet Accident & Emergency Vets. Recent reviews give a mixed picture on costs: one owner praised the way fees were explained around a small operation, while others complained about limited price transparency, prescription or refund disputes, a quoted £560 sedation fee to assess a paw injury, and a reported £200 rebooking charge after an unsuccessful microchipping visit.

- Recent reviews are mostly positive, with many owners describing long-term loyalty to the practice and saying the vets are kind, professional, and good with animals. - Emergency access stands out strongly: owners mention being able to book 24 hours a day and, in one case, being seen within an hour for a dog in significant pain. - Cost is viewed positively in several emergency reviews, particularly for out-of-hours care, though there is also a clear negative account centred on follow-up, test results, and missed promised callbacks.

- Many positive reviews highlight compassionate end-of-life care, including candles at reception during a pet’s passing, sympathy cards and poems sent afterwards, and supportive follow-up around ashes collection. - Owners also describe helpful handling of stressful appointments, including making visits easier for an energetic dog and generally warm interactions from reception staff. - More critical reviews raise concerns about continuity of care, with comments about changing vets and one owner saying their preferred vet, Mark, had left.
