Wave Vets – Vets in Wadebridge
Clinic Overview
Wave Vets describes itself as a small, independent clinic founded by a family. Reviews suggest it’s set up for routine appointments and urgent same‑day problems (for example, a dog with a leg injury was seen the same day, and another review describes an unplanned emergency visit), with vets giving clear explanations (including one owner mentioning a diagram used to explain findings). Several owners also mention practical support outside the consult room, such as phone advice that avoided an unnecessary visit, and end‑of‑life care described as attentive.
Services
- •Same‑day appointments mentioned for an injured dog.
- •Consultations with in‑clinic tests and a follow‑up call with a working diagnosis and plan (described by one owner after being seen the same day).
- •Treatment of ear infections (one owner says their dog’s ear infection was “sorted out”).
- •End‑of‑life euthanasia, described by an owner as handled attentively.
- •Telephone advice/support that, in at least one case, prevented an unnecessary visit.
- •Out-of-hours: the website says clients should call for details of an out‑of‑hours provider.
- •Veterinary Nurse Training facility (listed in the clinic data).
People
- •Harrison (vet): named in one review as listening carefully, showing empathy, and giving a clear plan after consultation and tests, followed by a phone call to discuss possible diagnosis and next steps.
- •Reception team: repeatedly mentioned as welcoming; one owner noted staff giving treats and helping their dog feel unusually calm during the visit.
Reviews
4.9 stars from 81 reviews. The available written reviews focus mostly on communication during appointments, kindness during difficult moments, and how costs feel. “”
- •Clear explanations and reassurance: owners mention vets taking time to explain findings and plans (including using a diagram/whiteboard), and calling later with results/next steps.
- •Handling urgent/unplanned issues: same‑day appointment for a leg injury; an “unplanned and emergency visit” described as well managed.
- •Support without a visit: one review describes helpful phone advice that avoided an unnecessary appointment.
- •Compassionate end‑of‑life care: one owner described euthanasia for an older dog as “amazing” and “very attentive.”
- •Costs are a point of disagreement: one reviewer felt follow‑up “pop back” visits were more about charging again, despite being satisfied with the clinical care.

Service and care of my dog, has been fine, and the care and treatment of the vets, has been greet, But I'm sorry to say that this is overshadowed by the costs of the treatment, even after being ask just to pop back to see everything's ok, That not done to check everything is ok but another way to get more money out of you, After spending a lot of money with wave this year, There caring manner is overshadowed by a way of making more money, Disappointed ☹️

Being on holiday, our dog needed to visit a vet, we google searched vets in wadebridge and choose Wave Vets. From our initial contact, to arrival, the reception team were so lovely and made us feel very welcome, we were called in by Harrison, who listened, showed empathy, was kind and highly knowledgeable. You could tell he just wanted to do the best by our dog. By the close of business, we had a consultation, tests, a call from Harrison with possible diagnosis and a plan in place, our experience with Harrison was really reassuring and we would highly recommend him. On the basis of our experience, we wouldn't hesitate to use them again. Thank you so much Harrison and the reception team you were amazing. Alfie.

We had to take a trip to the vets on day 2 of our holiday due to my Labrador having hurt his leg. I was impressed from the moment I called the vets. The service was really friendly & straightforward in terms of getting an appointment for the same day. Then when we arrived that same service continued. The ladies behind the reception desk (my apologies your names have slipped my mind) were absolutely lovely. Giving ted treats and making both us & him feel welcome. It’s the first time teds not been nervous in a vets! And this experience continued as we met with the Vet who was also lovely. (Again Im terrible with names apologies) He took his time to check ted over and explain his thoughts with us, even drawing a diagram on the whiteboard to help us understand. I felt like he had all the time in the world for us which was such a refreshing experience. Would absolutely 10/10 recommend this vets to anyone in Cornwall whether visiting or residents!I just wish I had them in my hometown. Thank you wave vets ❤️
