I would strongly advise caution before using Carisbrooke Vets. My experience has shown me that they cannot be relied upon to give consistent or honest information. When my kitten attended her first vaccination, I was clearly told that her follow-up vaccination needed to take place within 3–4 weeks. I missed the appointment and attempted to rebook within the 4th week, I acted on that advice.They told me I would have to pay for another course of vaccinations, A refund wouldn't be given despite keeping an old number on file despite the contact over the years being the number I have had for ten years. However, when I raised a dispute with my bank, Carisbrooke Vets gave a completely different version of events to Mastercard, claiming they had advised a 3–6 week window instead. I have an email from them confirming the 3–4 week advice, so their contradictory statements are impossible to ignore. This inconsistency left me out of pocket and demonstrates a lack of integrity in how they handle clients. In my view, this is not just poor communication but a fundamental breach of trust. A veterinary practice should put the welfare of animals first, We have now had to delay getting my cat natured because of this, they will do anything to get more money out of you.

We have been so pleased with Carisbrooke Veterinary Surgery. They are always friendly, helpful and professional. We don't always see the same vet but that hasn't been a problem as they are all so nice. The same can be said for the reception staff who are always really helpful. Our experience has been that they really care about their patient's welfare and it's not all about the money. Thank you Carisbrooke, keep up the good work.

Always amenable and friendly reception staff. I have only once seen the same vet twice, none have introduced themselves, I don’t even know they were always vets! Always professional and kind to my cat but rarely engaging or providing shared decision regarding treatment options.
