Great xets. Oxer the years we've used many different vets for many pets and in my view this is the best I'by dar. Maybe something to do with not being part of a franchise. They obviously care and are willing to put in a bit more effort towards both your pet and explaining the situation to you.

HVS was recommended to me by my dog trainer a few years ago as I have a reactive and nervous rescue collie, and I cannot recommend them enough. The receptionists are always very welcoming, friendly and accommodating, and are able to fit my dogs in at very short notice if needed. I have found all the vets to be professional, compassionate and caring at all times. I know that my dogs are always in very safe hands. Parking is always easy. An amazing team! Thank you x

Amazing, caring independent veterinary surgery. I've been with them since Stuart deWolf opened HVS some seven years or so ago and previously when Stuart owned another veterinary surgery in Hitchin. Would highly recommend them.

Best vets around! I have three dogs so have visited many times, we’ve probably seen every vet there, and each one is fantastic! The receptionists are so lovely and friendly too. Our most recent visit was for Missy’s cruciate surgery and the vet Tom was amazing throughout!

A big shout out to all staff members, they are warm and welcoming, very quick to respond to queries and highly knowledgeable and professional I cant recommend vet Jonathan enough he's helped the process emergrating our 2 dogs over to Australia. He went above and beyond to help us understand the process and even a little warming email to see how they are doing which is next level commitment and dedication to both animals and there owners 👏

5 stars isn’t enough. You won’t find a better more caring veterinary practice. My 12 year old chihuahua Louie had surgery and I can’t thank everyone at HVS enough for their efforts and compassion. If you are considering using this practice, don’t think twice 🙏🏻

I can't speak highly enough of HVS, the whole team are fantastic. Our Jasper is an epileptic dog and they have been wonderful as we have navigated looking after him, and cool, calm and supportive during some of his more dramatic moments (and he is a touch dramatic as shown below)! He wouldn't be here without their care and professionalism, and we are so grateful!

We have recently moved over to this surgery as advised from our dog trainer as they especially good with reactive dogs. We have been extremely impressed with the service for a our 2 dogs and cats. They allowed us to meet with our reactive dog outside the vets and were very calm and accommodating. They respond very quickly to any prescription request and all in has a very good for us and our pets. Thank you

I go regularly to the Hitchin veterinary surgery with all my pets. The receptionists are friendly and efficient and there is a nice atmosphere in the waiting room. The vets are helpful and explain things very clearly. The vets and nurse are very kind and gentle with the pets, so it is less stressful for them. I would highly recommend this veterinary surgery for your pet care.
