About us

We created the Vets'MediCover policy by stripping back pet insurance to its fundamental purpose, veterinary fees cover.  This enables us to provide a high level of cover at a competitive price.

The range of pet insurance to choose from makes selecting cover difficult but you must bear in mind the importance of lifelong cover. Most pet insurance polices only provide a very limited amount of cover.  Policies with especially low cost premiums usually equate with offering especially low claims limits.  The additional extras written into their policies may provide you with an illusion of security, but they may not provide you with a sufficient level of veterinary fees cover.

Lifelong cover provides peace of mind for pet owners concerned about their pet developing a long term, chronic or recurring illness. We will pay up to £10,000, year after year, for any necessary treatment of your pet; providing only that you renew the policy each year!

The beginning of VetsMediCover...

The concept for Vets' MediCover occurred to me after I had a bad experience with my pet insurance.  My Labradoodle, Alfie received major intestine surgery costing £4,800 but his policy at the time provided only £4000 of cover a year and did not offer lifelong cover.  Not only did we have to spend £800 on vet fees, but also we would not have been covered for any future complications.

I've worked in the insurance industry for many years and after investigating pet insurance further I could see that there was a gap in the market and sought to underwrite the Vets' MediCover policy.

The range of pet insurance to choose from makes selecting cover difficult but you must bear in mind the importance of lifelong cover.  Policies with exceptionally economical premiums usually equate with offering exceptionally reduced claims payments.  Such policies usually have additional extras written into their policy, providing you with an illusion of security.

We are one of the very few insurers to offer a lifelong pet insurance policy.  Longevity is the ultimate because it provides peace of mind for pet owners concerned about their pet developing a long-term, chronic or recurring illness.  We will provide up to £10,000 year after year for continuing treatment of all problems providing that you continue to renew the policy.

Most pet insurance polices only cover you for either the first 12 months, or for a fixed policy limit.  When this maximum indemnity is reached, cover will cease and you will not be able to insure this complaint elsewhere               as it will be recognized as a pre-existing condition and excluded.

This is why I created the Vets' MediCover policy, stripping back pet insurance to its fundamental purpose;             veterinary fees cover.  To ensure that this is sufficient we offer a high level of cover that is lifelong,                and offered to you at a reasonable price.
