Here, at Ferndown Family Vets, we care about you and your pets like family. We have built our practice to help your pets experience the best care they can in a general practice medical setting. We are the only clinic in the area to be qualified as a ‘Dog Friendly Clinic’ and a ‘Gold Cat Friendly Clinic’ where all our staff are trained in fear free practice too. This creates a positive, calm environment for your pet and we believe our costs are reflective of the best standards we share with you.

We choose to offer a bespoke service, tailored to you and your pets needs and always with the goal of making the experience as positive as possible. We feel our costs are reflective of the time we give to each of you. Even our consults are longer than the standard length you will find elsewhere.

Our team includes qualified vets and nurses with a lot of experience between them. In fact our highly trained team of four veterinary surgeons have over 60 years of combined experience and our team of qualified registered veterinary nurses have over 40 years of combined experience too. With this we can promise and deliver a wealth of knowledge and advice to share with you every step along the way.

Please find below a price guide for some of our most commonly requested appointments and procedures.

The costs of non-routine procedures and illness can be considerably varied. With this in mind our team are happy to discuss costs and options with you so please don’t hesitate to ask or share any concerns with us.
