Medivet St. Helens

Medivet St. Helens is part of the Medivet veterinary group and is led (per the clinic website) by partner and Veterinary Surgeon Tom Evans. The practice appears set up for routine care plus in‑house diagnostics: it advertises 15‑minute consultations, an in‑house laboratory, X‑rays, and ultrasound. Recent reviews highlight a few specific, practical experiences: spay surgery care “from start to finish,” support for an older cat diagnosed with thyroid problems, and sensitive handling of end‑of‑life euthanasia decisions. Owners also mention organised puppy social sessions (“puppy party”) with training tips and socialisation opportunities.
