How Much For A Vet Consultation?

[Leah Jacques]

What kind of price do people pay just for consultation at the vets?
Really think I need to look for a better vet in Birmingham area.

I take my two in for a check up and they charge me £15. I'm on the look out for a new vet too as Gus really hates her (he's the most laid back pigster) and she nearly lost a finger tip trying to look in his mouth quite forcefully

£24 for a 10 minute consultation slot is about average for a general vet; the fee varies quite considerably with the area and whether vets are profit making or just have to break even. Consultation fees can be higher, especially with specialists and profit making centres.

However, you seem to have been charged for each of your piggies even though they have the same complaint, which is rather cheeky - especially as the problem hasn't really been dealt with!

Yeah I thought that could be what they had done. It's discusting. Certainly will look for a new vet. Thanks guys x

Mines £25 for a first visit and £17.50 for minor consultation (the minor charge was when they called me back in following test results)

Mine charge £8.50 for a general consultation with the vets then just add for any medication on top , so cheap in comparison to what everyone has said to what everyone else as said so far but the service and level of care and attention given to the animals is excellent

After Having a tiswas on the phone they have refunded us £24 for one of the consultations. They had charged us twice. Hmmmmm don't know if that's because I ended up in tears on the phone or because it was a actually wrong. Who knows. x
