Sian Humphries

Branch Partner and Veterinary Surgeon

Ever since I graduated from Cambridge University twelve years ago, I have spent my time being a proud small animal vet. Dogs, cats, rabbits and hamsters alike, I'm happy to help any and all creatures great and small. The past few years I have dedicated my time to cats and am now a feline medicine certificate holder. I'm passionate about British wildlife and love nothing more than to turn my skills to an injured wild animal. More recently, I have been performing acupuncture treatments with great success, and will be leading the Beaminster team in Veterinary physiotherapy, hydrotherapy and rehabilitation medicine. My own pets, Felicity the cat and Spud the dog, keep me busy. My biggest hobby is swimming, mainly pool based as I love amateur level racing competitions. I do also climb regularly, and I'm very excited about the crags that the Southwest has to offer.

  • Your vet in Beaminster

    We are a warm, caring community practice based in Beaminster. We proudly offer a full range of veterinary services and excellent facilities. 

    Our facilities are all run by a team of highly qualified professionals dedicated to delivering exceptional patient and client care. We look forward to welcoming you and your pet.

  • Veterinary Physiotherapy

    Veterinary physiotherapy is hugely important for regaining strength after surgeries, and restoring flexibility to joints in chronic diseases such as arthritis.  It incorporates pain relief techniques, helping to reduce our reliance on drugs..  All treatments are individualised but may contain thermotherapy, cryotherapy, massage, acupuncture, TENS, pulsed electromagnetic field device (PEMF), passive and active therapeutic exercises.

  • Dental X-ray

    Only by x-raying a tooth can you fully understand it.  Problems below the gum line can easily otherwise missed, and possible complications arising from extractions can be prevented with knowledge of the full picture.

Has excellent facilities for disabled and those in wheelchair Staff are All knowledgeable and polite Excellent level of care for pets and owners alike Team given equal reassurance to owners, Wouldn't take my pet to anywhere else However since being taken over by medivet the "family" feel has gone,now it's very much like a business. While l had the safe knowledge that my animal was insured so didn't have to worry so much about cost as this could claim direct from insurance now l need to find cost first then claim off insurance

New beginnings at Honeysuckle Practice. We’ve been going for years & now with new administration it has been turned around. Friendly and efficient team with very proficient vets; sensitive & thorough especially Pedro who has treated my dachshund. Outstanding consultation & diagnosis. Cost of treatment with meds, very reasonable. I have signed up for the Medivet Health care plan. Extremely worthwhile.
