Best Veterinary Clinics in Hornsey, Greater london (2025)

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.

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

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

Mina and her team are excellent, they have always responded to emergencies with quick, helpful and practical treatment & advice swell as being caring & kind. Feel like the animals welfare is the priority rather than profit or upselling which is a rare thing these days. I always leave feeling reassured that my cat is in safe hands. Thank you.

Mina is one in a million vet...she is totally devoted to animals and has such a natural, caring way with them. We have a very large Borzoi ( Russian Wolfhound ) called Hendrix and she is just wonderful with him..Highly recommend this lovely lady and very professional vet.

Fantastic local vet. They've always been brilliant, finding time to see our cat quickly and provide helpful advice and support.

Mina is the best vet in London! She doesn’t do this for money but really helping the animals! 😍 For the rest of the local vets our friends are simply a business but not for her! We visited her with my Spooky for his vaccinations, neutering and other issues and she was always ready to book and seen us soon even though she is extremely busy! Thank you!

Lovely, helpful and sensitive consulation from vet and staff. Having had less than positive experiences at other vet practices recently, very happy to recommend Holders Hill Vets.

Rating: 5 / 5

Great team who I trust with my pets. I have dealt with 3 vets whilst attending the practice over the last 2 years, and I have had really positive experiences with all three (Phil, Nathan and Sandrine). They are currently assisting with relocating our dogs to Australia (the regulatory process is a nightmare) and they have been knowledgeable and super helpful. Anna on reception is a wonder with both her customer service and how she treats the patients.

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

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

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.

We came to Dr. Richard’s surgery for the first time in 2021, when my Tobbi (Bichon Frise) was 12 years of age. He was suffering from adenoma growing and bleeding near his rear end. We visited a few vets before we found Dr. Richard and they all were giving us different reasons not to do the operation, like age thing, difficult area, for some of them it was a challenge. But when we came to Dr. Richard, he had a look and without any hesitation and with an absolute confidence he said “Yes, I can do that” And he did a perfect job. It was such a happiness to see our little cutie pie playing and running again. Unfortunately Tobbi's condition is a recurring benign adenomas issue and we have to come to Dr. Richard to remove new adenomas when they appear. The danger of the operation on this area that the dog can become faecally incontinent, but thanks to Dr. Richard’s skills, our Tobbi is still ok after having several operations on this area. Dr. Richard is a very skilled surgeon, he always gives us the right advice and he does perfect internal stitches, which are not visible, no need to look after, the wound is clean and not bleeding compared to external stitches. All the stuff we met at Arc Vet - receptionist Jasmine, nurse, they are always very helpful, friendly and caring. We live far away, in West London, but we are willing to come to Arc Vet because of the professionals who work here.

Top quality cat care as my cat has or had bladder problems as she gets very sensitive. And the vet knew exactly what was going on. Great customer service and calming place for all animals. As me and my family have had bad experience in other veterinary clinics. A little bit pricey but worth the treatment. Didn’t take a photo of my cat as I didn’t want to startle her.

Rating: 5 / 5

The team at Arc clearly love animals and have been great looking after ours cats 🐈‍⬛ over the last few years and are always happy to provide advice and suggestions if we ever have any questions. They were also really helpful when one of our cats had kittens and we needed all the support around that (see pic). Overall super happy with them and would happily recommend. They also provide cat and dog sitting services if needed 👍

Village Vet St Johns Wood has been my vet practice for almost 25 years. Over the last eight years with my two rescue cats in particular, they have always gone above and beyond with their care, compassion and expertise. I still treasure their kindness and empathy when our darling Norma Jeane died suddenly and unexpectedly of a heart attack this summer. Her brother Arthur has had various and often serious and complicated health issues over the last few years too, but this practice has been incredible. Every member of staff from the lovely receptionists, to wonderful vet nurse Alex to the amazing vet Kelly have gone out of their way to find the best way to keep him happy and healthy, often working many hours in their own time to search for solutions. The staff here all clearly have huge love and care for all the animals they look after. Arthur is currently purring away next to me contentedly and it's all down to the truly wonderful staff at Village Vet St John's Wood.

Wonderful team! I can't praise Venus enough. She is always so helpful, knowledgeable, and efficient - I feel like she is two steps ahead of us and knows what we need even before we do. Everyone is so nice, warm, welcoming, and approachable. They answer all our questions with such detail, you can tell they are passionate about what they do, and there is always a smile.

Village Vet is a wonderful place. I've been with them for years and I've always received exceptional care for my pets. The entire staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. When I temporarily moved to another area I was disappointed with the service at the local clinic. Neither my cat nor I felt the same level of warmth attention and kindness that we've always experienced at Village Vet. I returned to Village Vet even though it meant a longer commute. Thank you for all the years of excellent care you've provided to me and my furry friends.

We would like to thank the brilliant team at Village vets Highbury . I can’t recommend this team enough. Every member of the team is compassionate , highly skilled and finally, there is now continuity of care with the head vet Justin, who is such an asset to the team and a very skilled vet. The nursing team led by Maleeha is fabulous and if you have a nervous pet the team go above and beyond to help your pet relax and have a positive experience. They are never short of cuddles and encouragement. We recently lost our beloved dog Pip to old age and we know without their quality care she would not have lived a long as she did and pain free. If you want high quality care then this is the vets for you. Thank you team, we will always be grateful.

This isn’t our usual vet - which is 150 miles away - but am now registered for when we are in London with our Tibetan, Ted. I am extremely glad we found such an excellent practice. Our 12 year old dog became ill suddenly and it was very worrying. Everyone I interacted with on the phone and at the practice was lovely & Jill, the vet was thorough and very reassuring. Thank you.

We recently had to take our dog Micky to here as an emergency and I can't express enough how grateful we are for the exceptional care and treatment he received. From the moment we walked in, the Nurse genuinely concerned about Micky’s health. The Doctor Leonal took the time to listen to our concerns and thoroughly examined Micky, explaining each step of the process in a way that made us feel comfortable and informed. Their compassion for animals is evident, and it was clear that they truly care about their patients. Micky's treatment plan was tailored to his specific needs, and the staff provided us with clear instructions on how to care for him at home. Thanks and grateful for your team.

The woman vet who gave my dog his vaccines was incredible, I have never felt so at ease with my dog at the vets (which he hated terribly). I will be requesting her again next time as she made the whole visit very calm. Thank you!!
