The Best Veterinary Cares in Leicestershire, United Kingdom (2025)

Thank you for being so professional and compassionate with putting little Honey to sleep. We were able to go in straight away and were seen very swiftly. The prices were also very reasonable. You will be my first choice if I ever need a vet for any of my other pets. A+

We have used Pinfold Vets since we moved near to the area. Pinfold was recommended and we have used these wonderful people ever since. Our dog Jax is known to the vet team as he is a calamity and they have always been professional and friendly. We would 100% recommend Pinfold Vets to family and friends. Great knowledge and experience

I visited with my 9 week old kitten today (belle) and the student vets were absolutely lovely and thorough. Really good experience as a whole for me and my kitten. Thank you ! Xx

First time visit and a really positive experience. Lovely, friendly staff who were very knowledgeable and caring, and very reasonable prices.

I am so pleased about the advice I get from Kayleigh — the top nurse — regarding my three little dogs’ welfare. Whenever I need to check my best buddies’ weight or ask for anything regarding health issues, I know I will get top professional advice. This practice really does love pets - as soon as you enter you can see a lovely and colourful display of the staff’s own pets.

Thankyou Rachel and team for a stress free first time visit with Mabel! You were so kind to her and she was a real show off! I really appreciated your help and advice!

Took our Rescue cat Casper from Loughborough Kitten Rescue for his 2nd vaccine today, lovely lady vet with blonde hair, said she had only started yesterday. Casper didnt flinch was quite at ease. Receptionist also very friendly and helpful. They had a sign saying a cat was passing over the rainbow bridge, lovely respectful touch. I've owned cats 30 years and this vets felt very homely, great team 👏

First visit to Woodward vets with my new rabbit. Found it very easy to park, which is important to me as I'm disabled. Easy access to the premises and a lovely spacious bright reception, reception staff were friendly and helpful. Vet was very gentle with Albert the rabbit and explained everything to me

We have just taken our very old cat to see Eddie at this veterinary practice. Wow, what a lovely and knowledgeable man, who has genuine care and compassion for the animals he sees. He sat with us for 35 minutes explaining possible options for our cat, and went into detail about his condition. Thank you so much, I couldn’t have asked for a better vet. Eddie is a credit to this practice. Thank you so much.

Poor Sam was on his way home on Saturday when we rang and he turned round just for us, and talked us through his findings and explanatory points to look out for. And gave us peace of mind that there there at any time should we need to go back. the reassurance is priceless x thank you x

Craig has been looking after my birds for over 5 years now. 2 weeks ago I had got an appointment for 2 of my chickens to have their regular implants but 1 of my other girls was unwell that day too. I took her with me & even though she wasn't booked in Craig took the time to see her for me. He also saved my turkeys life 3 years ago. I travel a long way to get to Chine House but it is worth it knowing that my birds are in such knowledgeable hands. Thank you Craig. We appreciate all that you do.

I have a female XL Bully who recently had to be spayed. I was extremely worried after hearing so many horror stories about the breed. Fortunately, the brilliant reception team booked me in with Martin, who was very caring and compassionate about our situation. He answered all my questions with genuine and thoughtful responses. My dog is now in recovery, and the operation was successful. She dislikes the muzzle and was a bit anxious, so the lovely reception team gave me a buzzer to wait outside, recognizing that she was getting worked up. Thank you for not being judgmental about my dog. To any XL Bully owners out there, please keep Chine House in mind. They have been amazing. A big thank you to the reception staff, Martin, and the vet nurses for ensuring my dog was in good hands. The pricing was very reasonable, and I would have happily paid more knowing my girl was safe.

As a family we’ve been using Chine House Vets for 46 years. They’re just fantastic in every way. They are more expensive than some but that’s what happens with supply and demand of a quality service. They’re supportive and will coach and mentor but also very honest when needed. They’ve looked after our dogs from puppies, multiple cats and our chickens. Would highly recommend for small animals I don’t have any experience with large animals.

We love this practice, they're knowledgeable, kind and go out of their way to help (especially with our diabetic dog). However I really wish they had an exotics vet. Currently there's only 2 serving the entire Leicestershire area and it can be very difficult to get in with them because of their caseload. There are a couple of others that will see an exotic animal but, as I was told during my search, they don't have an actual exotics vet. I recently had an emergency with one of my hedgehogs and Jenny (pretty sure it was her) was wonderful and agreed to take a look because the one exotics vet fell ill before our appointment and the other was still on his leave. She found part of the problem and was able to give me some medication, but I ultimately had to wait over a week until he could get in at Chine House. Meadow Lane PLEASE hire an exotics vet again!

Our little old dog was sadly put to sleep yesterday after a very rapid decline. He luckily hadn't need to go to the vet often and actually hadn't been for some time but the receptionists were brilliant and booked us an appointment. Geraldine the vet was lovely, kind and compassionate and helped confirm it was the best thing we could do for our boy. Everything was peaceful and calm with dignity.

Passing through on a narrowboat, phoned for an emergency appointment for our poorly old cat. Seen and treated very quickly, for a very reasonable cost. Everyone was helpful and so friendly, massive thank you to the vet

Cannot praise and thank the vets and staff at this surgery enough after recently moving to the area. Our spaniel Holly was rushed in for emergency surgery after the vet discovered she had a tumour on her spleen. If it hadn't been for quick attention given she would not be here back at home with us now. Everyone at the surgery have been so kind and I really thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking such good care of Holly. You should pride yourselves on the compassion and service you provide.

This clinic is conveniently located on the street with plenty of parking space available. The nurses were very friendly and approachable, making it easy to communicate and address any concerns. While I found the consultation fee to be a bit on the expensive side, I was quite satisfied with the quality of the surgery. I dropped off my cat, Gino, in the morning, and he was ready to be picked up in the afternoon after the procedure. I also appreciated the follow-up call the next day to check on Gino’s condition—it showed genuine care for their patients. Overall, a good experience!

The team here have been amazing for the past few years I’ve been using them for my dog. They always make an effort to work around my schedule and I’ve never been turned away on the day if I’ve arrived with what I believe to be an emergency. Reception staff are brilliant too and they also have a good selection of dog care inside too

Brilliant service. So pleased that I went to this vet. They gave my poorly cat a very good send off. .R.i.P Sam xxx

Everyone was very friendly, and I felt my dog was treated well & looked after during her operation.

Good care and treatment for my new kitten and he wasn't distressed getting his vaccinations. This vet service is only available on Monday and Tuesday by appointment only so for routine treatment you may have to wait a week or two. If you need a vet any other day you need to go to the main service in Beeston. This is the only vet in Shepshed Plenty of parking available.

much nicer and friendlier now and not always trying to sell you something you don't need. highly recommended now it's changed hands. I do t come out feeling guilty anymore lol
