St Mary's Vets is a long-established practice providing a friendly service to pet owners in Ferndown and surrounding area. Our staff believe that your pets are part of your family and deserve to be treated to the best care possible, no different to the care we would give to our own pets. We seek to maintain or improve your pet's quality of life whatever may come their way.
We always involve you in the decision making as each pet is different, unique, and what may be best for one may not be best for all. We like to take a holistic view of each pet, rather than a narrow clinical view. We see a valued companion not just a disease.

Services
We all understand how stressful it can be for a cat to come to see us and we want to reduce that stress as much as possible. To that end we have become accredited under the Cat Friendly Clinic scheme run by the International Society for Feline Medicine. Although we all work to cat friendly standards, the practice has 2 members of staff who ensure the standards are maintained.
We believe that nutrition is an important part of keeping pets healthy and can also play a vital part in the treatment of some illnesses. This is why we stock a select range of cat and dog pet food in practice, helping to take the faff out of pet food for our clients by recommending diets that have been scientifically created to provide optimal nutrition, which tastes great!
Pet insurance provides cover for veterinary fees in the event that your pet becomes injured or unwell. It can provide peace of mind that you're in a position to afford all the veterinary care your pet may need. With veterinary medicine employing expensive medical techniques and medication, and with pet owners caring more and more about their pets' health, pet insurance is becoming increasingly popular.
If your insurer asks you to complete your claim online, what we need from you will be greatly simplified. Please note the process may differ between insurers. Attach the clinical history, along with a copy of any payments you've made (you do not have to keep any receipts). Please note the processing of direct claims is discretionary and based on the relationship between the insurer and the clinic.
We've partnered with Video Vets Now so you can speak to a vet from home or out and about - 7 days a week between 8am and 11pm. Consults are 10 mins and cost 24. If your pet needs to be seen by us or Vets Now, your original 24 payment will be refunded. We partnered with Video Vets Now to help you get the advice and reassurance you need, wherever you are.

Critical: Value
Extortionate prices- charged me £41 on Wednesday to tell me to come back on Friday, then Friday morning gave me the option for sedation and treatment that would most likely not work or need repeating (£250) or anaesthesia and surgery (£600). I left without treatment and called my previous vet, got quoted £200 less!

A very friendly and professional practice. The vets are first class and always give the time required to look after your pet. The vet always gives advice on the immediate issue and care fore the future. Gives you confidence that they are concerned about the pets welfare and good health.

I have used St Marys Vets for the past 16 years. They offer a great service, a warm welcome, and are all attentive and friendly. I have always had the best service and would recommend St Mary’s to anyone without hesitation. My pets are my world and I depend on the advice and knowledge from the staff and trust them completely. Wonderful place that has the animals best interest at heart. It feels like family
