The Best Veterinary Cares in Chelsea, Greater London, United Kingdom (2025)

We’ve been with this vet for over two years now, and it’s hands down the best veterinary practice we’ve ever visited. Before finding them, we tried a few other clinics, but none compared to the level of care and professionalism here. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, and the vet is amazing—always happy to help and genuinely caring about the animals. We’re so grateful to have found them!

After my dog pinched and swallowed the plastic netting from a joint of beef my regular vet couldn’t fit him in. Blackheath vets came to the rescue and saw him immediately. The kind staff helped him to be sick and he soon brought it back much to my relief. I really recommend this vet practice. Lovely friendly can-do staff and vets

Brilliant vets! Have been with them for many years and they are highly skilled. I always recommend them. Dom, Alan and Gav ( as well as Ash in the past) are such good and caring Vets. You cannot get any more kind and knowledgeable Vets. The surgery works so well as the nurses there are so fab too, Kim and Mia are just a few of the lovely ones working there always trying to find appointments for you, keeping you calm and so supportive . I had all my dogs spayed there and some other procedures done at this great Vet.( Toggles just a few days ago) not only I know the OP is done by the best (Dom) but also the aftercare is amazing, fast callback after the OP, clear instructions. You always get written advice and a call back if all is ok. You will always be reminded via text when the next appointment is. Just a very perfect setting with amazing Vets. Most of all I love that all my dogs love the Vets. I love seeing how they give them not only the utmost medical care but also the cuddles and love .Thank you to all of you, Dom for being such a great Vet, and also Alan for helping us by going the extra mile when we were in desperate need for help with travel. Biggest hug from Ricki & Holly and triple licks from Lottie, Ziggy and Toggles 20 out of 10 you are the best x

I have visited twice recently with my cat Geir. Both times we got an appointment at short notice and the reception team was very friendly and professional. We've seen Carla and she's a lovely vet - takes time to listen and discuss options and is very kind and caring when handling Geir.

Great place and really polite staff the last time I went. They attended to my dog really quickly and were very kind. Location a bit odd as you can't really drive there as it's on a high street and the parking is limited so I just park in Asda and do the 8 minute walk. Every 6 months and every year they send reminders of vaccinations and check ups. In short, they're a good vet

I took my Yorkshire Terrier for castration and teeth extractions this morning to All Creatures in Wandsworth. I was expecting a very frail little darling after his treatments, but to my surprise, he looked cheerful and playful like nothing had happened to him. He had 22 teeth taken out. Staff were amazing, knowledgeable and friendly. Even though this practice was very far from where I live, but I am glad I chose this practice. Their fees were very reasonable too unlike some other veterinaries. I highly recommend this practice. Thank you for an stirling work

All Creatures is a fantastic local vet, and I feel I need to leave a review after my cat, Blue, was poorly around a month ago. Blue had very non specific symptoms, I phoned first thing on a Tuesday. I was initially asked to come in at midday but I explained I was very anxious and the receptionist promptly called me back with an earlier appointment. Blue was seen and they ran quite a few tests but weren’t sure what was troubling her. Anyway, they kept her in overnight and I collected her the next day. I still wasn’t happy with her behaviour and spoke to Nicola, the vet, who asked me to bring her in Thursday morning. She took one look at Blue and said she wasn’t right, and promptly referred us to The Ralph clinic in Marlow. She asked for her to come in the same day so we would avoid out of hours boarding costs, and quickly performed a thoracocentesis prior to me driving her to The Ralph. The Ralph even noted this was very appropriate for them to do prior to transfer, in order to stabilise her for the journey. Throughout the entirety of this scenario, the team were very kind and empathetic. They kept me updated and were happy to update me over the phone whenever I rang. They even phoned to check how Blue was doing after I collected her from The Ralph. They ordered my repeat prescription for medication quickly and was ready for collection the next day. They also assisted with the insurance claim. Honestly, without seeing Blue so quickly I’m not sure she would still be with us today and I’m very grateful to the team who cared for her. Yes, vets are expensive but this is why people should get pet insurance and also why we should be so grateful we have the NHS in the UK. It’s also important to note that this is the equivalent of a GP for humans, they cannot provide every service in this small clinic and sometimes it is appropriate for them to refer to specialists and Vet hospitals. I can’t recommend them enough. Thank you, All Creatures.

Vets that genuinely care. We took one of our cats to the hospital one evening when they were unwell, where they had some treatment and came home with some advice to keep an eye on things. We received a call from Mandy at All Creatures the next morning just to check on how Jiji was doing, which was so thoughtful and is a testament to how much they care

I have to start by saying that I was not a regular Wolfe Vets clients, so I cannot speak of their regular services. However, I am very lucky to have them around 2mins away from my house. My beloved dog very quickly went from being a bit down, to suddenly beginning to leave us (he had a mast cell tumour) As luck has it, my regular vet, with whom I had a plan in place for this moment, was on holiday, so I needed to either find someone at our practice who could come home or elsewhere. I showed up as soon as they were opening to ask if someone could come over to help my dog cross over. I got a call back straight away saying they would, exactly at the time I needed it to be. Although it was probably the worst circumstances to meet someone, Dr. Alonso was incredibly kind and compassionate. He and I believe it was nurse Alice arrived promptly, prepped Bruno with care and explained everything, giving me enough time as I wished to say good bye. The only reason I give 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the extortionate price for this (over £400) My initial vet had quoted £130 for an at-home euthanasia visit, and even the mobile vets out of hours fee is around £360 for a dog my size. Had I known this ahead of time, I would have done so in the middle of the night to avoid further suffering to my dog rather than wait until opening hours. Beyond that, know that the team at Wolfe’s is kind, compassionate and prompt to act.

Wonderful vet practice with fantastic facilities and lovely vets. I was referred to Wolfe Vets when my Dog had mysterious symptoms and was in a lot of discomfort suddenly, they brought him in immediately and set to work with tests and treatment to figure out what was wrong. Alonso was fantastic at explaining each step of the process and what it all meant, calling me with regular updates throughout. Claudia even called me through the night and first thing in the morning from the night shift to also update me which was amazing. My dog is usually fairly nervous aggressive in such situations, but the team were so lovely and put him at ease that he was really happy and well behaved. He responded well and quickly to the treatment provided - thank you so much to the team!

All vets are expensive, particularly when you have no insurance, but Wolfe Vets have a great "Wolfe Pack" membership for basics which helps reduce cost. The vets have always provided excellent care and advice and stear away from expensive procedures and unnescesary vists/costs. This practice instills confidence in me as a client and is worth every penny.

Impressive care and attention for my Charlie and great emergency services. Have been going to Wolfe in Chiswick since they opened and the Fulham emergency clinic is top notch. Recently Charlie stole spaghetti and chicken bones and was very ill, but the vet was able to recommend a treatment to rapidly get rid of the dangerous bones and he recovered swiftly.

Wow!! The most professional team of people. So appreciative to have such a service in our community. Michelle is the most caring, compassionate, thorough & competent vet we could have asked for. A beautiful Soul. Thank you so much to the other staff too including the hospital vet who was also amazing & the front desk staff. Blessings to you all from Nour the cat & family.

The vet is excellent but outrageously expensive… The prices have gone up enormously and I don’t see how they can be justified… We took our dog in just for a brief 20’ check up cost £68.00

I've been going to this clinic with my cat Ofelia since I moved to London 4 years ago. By far, this is the best veterinaries I have come across. Recently my little one was taken in for surgery. The planning, the follow up, the heartfelt care, all if it splendid. I needed some extra information beforehand and asked to talk to the staff and it was granted. And on the day, the pre-surgery chat with the nurse was so good. The day after, both the veterinary herself and the nurse called, both checking in with medical check list and with real care. These professionals are in it because their hearts are in it. Cannot recommend the clinic highly enough. So glad Ofelia can keep coming back to the Highgate Clinic.

My nearly 3 year old, anxious Maltese has been going to Highgate Veterinary Clinic since he was a puppy. I cannot recommend Dr Jennie, Dr Beccy, and the rest of the team enough. Their patience, willingness to be accommodating, and their high standard of care are exemplary. When an anxious dog pulls you to get inside the vet office, it is a true sign that they are doing everything right!

I’ve been coming to Abingdon Vet since 2009 and although I was very sad when the previous owner vet left, I have been happy with the current vets so far. Every staff is friendly and professional, too. I think the resident vet, Jose, is so knowledgeable. He got to the bottom of my dog’s illness and she is now stable with the right treatment and doing well. I have moved a bit further from the practice now but I’m not changing the vet any time soon!

I've been going to Abingdon for the last 2+ years with my elderly dog. They are always super helpful and supportive. The whole team at reception are especially kind and accommodating. They've made managing a tough few years that little bit easier. 🙏🏼

I am following up on my last review about poor behaviour of a member of the staff. I have received a very apologetic call from the lovely nurse Huma in the meantime. What a star employee and pleasure to speak to! The clinic should count themselves lucky to have her. She was empathetic and understanding and listed to me and helped to find a way forward for my dog. Thank you, Huma! You are the best! We look forward to seeing you when we visit the clinic again!

My experience with Abingdon Veterinary Clinic was fantastic! From the moment I walked in, the staff greeted my cat so warmly, making us feel right at home. They were incredibly welcoming, and every interaction from the friendly care to answering my concerns over the phone it professional and kind. Highly recommend for loving, top-notch care!

I would love to thank the amazing staff at Streatham Hill Vets after the wonderful and most thoughtful gift they sent my mum today, after losing her very old cat Tinkerbell a couple of months ago, today she received the most sweetest remembrance of her beloved Cat. Beautiful footprints and a snipping of her beautiful black coat. It made my mum very emotional but with happy memories of her 17 year old cat. The timing was perfect, you really did a great job of caring for her baby when she was poorly and making the heartbreaking process easier to manage. Well done guys, a massive Pat on the back to you guys for being so so thoughtful. Can’t thank you enough for making my mums day. I really do appreciate everything you’ve done then and today. Can’t recommend you guys enough. Rachel

I took my dog here as she was still poorly having visited our own vet the day before. They were helpful friendly and a vet who cared about Maisie and actually looked at her injury which my own vet didn't bother doing. Well done I will definitely return.

Happy with the service and the staff at the reception was so polite and kept apologising for the delay but was understandable with the cases needed to be seen first and the vet explained in details so peace of mind and relief my issue was dealt and resolved

The best vet in south London by far. I had my last pet in their care up to the end which was dealt with the utmost dignity and loving care. My new companion is of course also registered with them. All staff are amazing without exception. Keep up the amazing work and thank you for being there to care for our loved ones when we need your support. Thomas and Toffee

Wonderfully skilled, kind compassionate independent vets practice. I've used them for twelve years for my two cats and they have provided excellent care and advice with a lovely human touch. I would recommend them every time.

My dog is quite anxious, and taking him to the vet can be so frustrating as he won't let anyone touch / examine him. Natalia has been so amazing with him, I feel so lucky to have found her. She really cares about him and thinks ahead of how to accommodate him and support him when he is sick. She is always extremely responsive and thinks outside the box when needed. Having a rescue dog can be so scary from time to time and I can't stress enough how grateful I am to have her as my dog's vet.

A special thank you to Dr. Adam Rouan for the incredible care he gave my 7-month-old kitten. She had quite a few issues, and Adam went above and beyond to figure out the best treatment with minimal side effects. This was particularly important since my kitten was so small at the time, and many medications carried risks. He was so patient and thorough, and it’s clear he genuinely cares about the animals he looks after. I am very grateful that he treats her with so much care, has attention to detail and a sincere desire to help. And I think my adorable kitten stole his heart ;) Also, a big thank you to the lovely ladies at reception, Serena and Jasmin, who are always so friendly and helpful, making every visit much easier and nurse Jessica with her sweet little Poppy that brightens everyone’s day. You’ve all been amazing—thank you so much!

Fantastic clinic. Friendly, professional staff who always consider the best interests of both pet and owner. Very transparent (& fair) pricing, genuinely care for their customers. My dog loves her visits here, is treated with so much care, and despite having had operations that required me to drop her off and leave her, is not afraid to go back - which shows how well she has been looked after.

I used to look after a black cocker spaniel (Darcy). The 1st time we went he tried to jump the gate to get back to me but the other times he was more relaxed and when he stayed with me I booked him for 2 hours day care because I had a long dental appointment. The dentist asked why I didn't leave him at home I replied so he had company. When I collected him Claire told me he was good. It's obviously that Claire loves dogs and cats.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Waggin’ Tails Veterinary Clinic! My dog, a big, lovable bear, has been a patient here for roughly four years, and the care he’s received has been nothing short of outstanding. From the moment we walk through the door, we’re greeted with warmth and genuine kindness. Nora and her assistant Claire are nothing short of exceptional. They’ve always gone above and beyond to make both me and my dog feel completely at ease. Whether it’s a routine check-up, advice on care, or addressing any health concerns, their professionalism, knowledge, and compassion shine through every time. Nora has an incredible ability to connect with animals, and you can tell she truly loves what she does. Her attention to detail and thorough explanations always leave me feeling confident that my dog is in the best hands. And Claire, what a gem! Her friendly and inviting nature makes every visit a pleasure. Over the years, Waggin’ Tails has become more than just a vet clinic, it feels like family. I trust them completely with my furry friend’s health, and I’m so grateful for the outstanding care they provide. If you’re looking for a team that truly cares about your pet as much as you do, I couldn’t recommend Waggin’ Tails enough. Thank you, Nora and Claire, and the whole team for keeping my big bear happy, healthy, and thriving!

This pet shop is (not my local) so beautifully supplied with all things that you might need for your pet. The staff are helpful and friendly. There is also a grooming parlour for your pooch. I took my shih tzu for grooming there many times. Last time I was not very happy about a few bits but to my pleasant surprise I was called by the owner. It is fantastic that they care about their customers and I would definitely take my dog back there with full confidence. Highly recommend. I took my Ziggy again for grooming today and Im very happy

High praise to wonderful vet doctor/surgeon Mr Phakkey and his team is well overdue on my part (have been with them for 15 happy years!!) These professionals are warm / kind / caring and knowledgeable, also good at sharing their knowledge about our pets with us, owners - outstanding service from this surgery!! My pets have always been well looked after - thank you all!!

Mr Phakkey and the team went out of their way to help us with our cat many times over the last few years. Even during busy holiday periods. Would highly recommend Animal Choice to anyone looking for a vet in Tooting

I moved Buddy to Animal Choice in 2022 and I highly recommend this practice to anyone looking for a new vet. Buddy loves going there.... and that's even after he's had to have some pretty unpleasant procedures so that says a lot! The whole team is so welcoming, kind, knowledgeable and committed to getting each pet healthy and happy again. No problem or query is too big or small for this team to deal with or respond to asap. An outstanding veterinary practice in my opinion!

Genuinely the best vet, hands and paws down. Kind, caring, easy to get an appointment and reasonably priced. Mr Phakkey and his team are wonderful and a great contrast to all the nasty corporate group practices that are sadly so common now.
