Best Vets in Greater London

Chadwell Heath Vets4Pets is part of the Vets4Pets brand and is described on its website as a locally owned practice. The clinic’s website emphasises in‑house diagnostics (lab testing, digital X‑ray, ultrasound) and surgical capability (operating theatre; orthopaedics including cruciate surgery), with separate dog and cat wards plus an isolation unit. From the latest reviews available, owners most often mention individual vets by name and describe complex care and follow-up communication (including a vet calling to check progress after an appointment). However, there are also sharp complaints about communication and cost clarity—particularly around pre-test requirements for medication and an overnight-stay fee that a reviewer says was not explained up front.

Young Veterinary Partnership is described on its website as a long‑established, independent veterinary surgery with over 60 years’ experience and a team of nine vets, plus qualified nurses and reception staff. Based on the site, it’s set up for both routine care (vaccinations, microchipping, consultations) and in‑house diagnostics/treatments (digital X‑ray, ultrasound, dentistry, laser therapy, keyhole surgery). The practice also states it offers 24/7 veterinary advice and can hospitalise pets overnight in its own surgery. Review experiences are mixed: one owner describes staff being notably sensitive during the collection of individually cremated remains (quoted cost £250), while two other reviewers describe feeling patronised or handled roughly—one specifically recounts a distressing vaccination appointment for an anxious dog, and another describes frustration with email communication and lack of cost breakdown for a proposed dermatology workup.

Part of the Village Vet group (“a family of veterinary practices”), rather than a standalone independent practice. Based on owner reports, this clinic is used for both routine care and urgent presentations: examples include online booking for appointments, dental work under anaesthetic with tooth extractions, and treatment for suspected chocolate toxicity. Several reviews describe proactive communication during procedures (including phone updates while a pet was under anaesthetic and after the procedure), while one recent 1‑star review alleges very poor communication and empathy during an emergency visit that ended in a pet death and a disputed discussion about payment.

Oval Pet Centre Welling is part of the IVC Evidensia Group and describes itself as a small practice serving 5,000+ clients with a team of vets, nurses and receptionists. The practice promotes a Cat Friendly Clinic approach and is listed as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility. Practical details owners mention include staff taking time to explain options and answer questions, and one review describing the team staying around 4 hours to support a dog in labour that included multiple breech pups.

Companion Care (Enfield) Ltd describes itself as a locally owned practice with a well‑equipped facility, set up for routine care plus in‑house diagnostics and procedures (including an operating theatre, hospital ward, and isolation unit). Based on the latest reviews available to us, owners most often mention clear explanations from vets (including talking through treatment options) and thorough checks, alongside a recurring split in experience at reception—some praise efficient help at the front desk, while others describe being ignored or spoken to rudely. Concrete specifics supported by the website and reviews include: - In-house lab work (biochemistry, haematology, blood pressure monitoring) plus digital x‑ray and ultrasound listed on the website. - Dentistry and an operating theatre listed as available. - Owners repeatedly naming vets (notably Delilah and Mary) for thorough exams and taking time to explain options. - Multiple reviews raising concerns about reception attentiveness, contrasted with other reviews praising specific reception support.

Wellpet Veterinary Practice Ltd is a veterinary clinic for cats and dogs, and is also described in the clinic data as a veterinary nurse training facility. No corporate group affiliation is stated in the information provided. Reviews most often describe supportive, calm handling and clear explanations during consultations (including discussing diagnosis and treatment options), but a small number of recent reviews report the opposite—a rushed appointment after a long wait, and front-desk interactions described as aggressive, particularly around cancelling a monthly pet-plan. Concrete details mentioned by owners include: - Cat and dog care across multiple visits (both routine and illness-related outcomes reported). - Vaccinations, including a visit specifically for a FeLV vaccination (with one reviewer disputing the advice they were given about vaccine coverage). - A clinic environment described as spotless, well-equipped, and calming (from one detailed account). - A monthly pet-plan arrangement is referenced (with one reviewer unhappy about cancellation/fees).

Goddard Veterinary Group Fulham is part of the Goddard Veterinary Group (the practice has been in the group since 2001) and is set up for routine, preventive and diagnostic care with in-house blood testing and X-ray support. The website lists both routine procedures (including neutering and dentistry) and wider diagnostics (including ultrasound and CT scans). In the latest reviews available to us, owners repeatedly mention efficient, low-stress vaccination visits, including being seen early with no queue, and vets who are gentle and patient with anxious pets. One reviewer also highlights long-term continuity (14 years) and staff using the pet’s name and building trust over time.

WagWorks Fulham presents itself as a membership club for dogs, combining daycare, training, grooming, and in-house healthcare under one roof (website). Recent reviews strongly focus on daycare and grooming, with multiple owners mentioning dogs who are excited to attend and come home “tired and happy” after sessions. Specific touches mentioned include a pre-grooming phone call to discuss handling preferences and what the owner wanted, and owners referencing in-house vets as part of the setup.

Aylmer Parade Vet describes itself as an independent clinic and a sister practice of Mill Lane Vet. The website notes in-house diagnostics (on‑site laboratory and X‑ray), and pet travel support (Animal Health Certificates). In recent reviews, owners repeatedly mention being fitted in quickly when their pet was unwell, and getting clear explanations of advice and treatment—one owner said their dog was “the least scared” they’d ever been at the vet.

Arden House Veterinary Surgery describes itself as an independent practice that has been caring for patients since 1946. Based on the available information and reviews, it appears set up for general practice care plus support around serious illness and end-of-life decisions: owners mention help managing a diabetic pet, being seen quickly for an urgent concern, and home euthanasia carried out sensitively. Several reviews also describe the team keeping in touch after difficult appointments (including follow-up contact, a condolence card, and paw prints).
