Best Vets in Newham – Complete Local Guide

Goddard Veterinary Group Plaistow is part of the Goddard Veterinary Group (a multi-site practice). The website lists routine appointments plus diagnostics (including X‑ray and blood testing), and reviews most often describe cat care—neutering, annual vaccinations, and dental work—with a few practical touches for nervous pets (cat-calming blankets are mentioned). Owners also describe follow-up after procedures (e.g., two check-ups after dental work) and say they’ve been fitted in quickly for appointments, including an urgent same-day visit in one case. One recent negative review conflicts with the mainly positive feedback, alleging the practice prioritised income and that their cat was no longer welcome after a communication dispute.

Every Tail Vets Stratford describes itself as a modern practice offering same- or next-day appointments. The website highlights diagnostics & imaging, surgery, dental care, a pharmacy, wellness/preventative care, and virtual/ongoing support. Reviews frequently mention vaccinations with a check-up, clear explanations during consults, and small touches aimed at reducing stress (for example, treats used to help dogs stay calm, and some owners leaving with free treats). Pricing feedback is mixed: several reviewers call prices “reasonable,” while one review reports being charged £60 for antibiotic eye drops they believed should cost around £10.

Goddard Veterinary Group West Ham is part of the Goddard Veterinary Group and is RCVS accredited. The practice describes on‑site capability for blood testing, x‑rays and operations, and it also operates as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility. For emergencies, the website states care is provided via their Wanstead Veterinary Hospital (24/7, 365 days a year).

From recent reviews, owners most often mention clear explanations around procedures (including neutering) and detailed support during recovery (including post‑op guidance and support in the first few days after surgery). There are also recurring negatives around communication and one report of a delay returning ashes after cremation, plus a complaint about how a call was handled close to closing.

Celia Hammond Animal Trust is a charity-run cat rescue that also provides routine veterinary procedures, and it’s listed as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility. Recent reviews focus heavily on cat adoption alongside neutering/spaying, microchipping, and vaccinations, with multiple owners describing smooth same-day procedures and straightforward recovery guidance.

Concrete examples owners mention include

• •Cats/kittens being neutered/spayed, microchipped and vaccinated as part of their care.
• •Special requests being handled (one owner asked for their kittens’ claws to be trimmed alongside microchipping/neutering).
• •A thorough adoption process, including a home visit and checks of home “catproofing,” which some reviewers say reassured them about safety.
• •Staff providing post-op recovery suggestions after spaying.

A locally owned practice operating under the Vets4Pets brand, set up with in-house diagnostics and surgical facilities (including an in-house laboratory, digital X‑ray, ultrasound, an operating theatre, and a hospital ward). The practice also lists Veterinary Nurse Training.

In the latest written reviews available to us, multiple owners describe operational and communication problems (overbooked appointments with long waits; difficulty getting through by phone), and several reviews allege serious clinical concerns (including a pet death shortly after dental surgery and a claimed misdiagnosis after X‑ray). Out-of-hours emergencies are stated on the website to be covered by Veteris Emergency Vet Service.
