Medivet Islington Liverpool Road

Medivet Islington Liverpool Road is part of the Medivet group and is described (in structured clinic data) as a veterinary nurse training facility. Recent reviews suggest it’s set up for routine care and preventive visits (vaccinations, check-ups, and pet “pamper” style appointments), with several owners mentioning being fit in at short notice and receiving thorough examinations, including for nervous dogs. One recent review conflicts with this, reporting a booked appointment where the practice did not open and no prior notification was received, plus frustration with follow-up communication.
