Vets for Pets - Richmond

A lovely nice and clean place for pets to take care of them. Very good location and they cover so many services for your pets.

Booked an appointment for a certain time. Was there on time (even before the appointment time) but rather than respect the time they took in someone who had an appointment after us. We ended up waiting for over 25mins. Not something I appreciate when booking for a certain time and being on time especially as it’s distressing for the animal to sit there and wait.

Vet4pets Richmond today were absolutely amazing. Had to bring my poorly cat in with my autistic son, they were kind, compassionate and completely professional. My darling cat had to be pts and they were so amazing through the process and my son left without being distressed or traumatised. Can’t sing their praises enough for going above and beyond for my family.

SHOCKING! DON'T BUY ANY PRODUCTS THERE. After the visit the nurse recommended to buy ProDen PlaqueOff Powder for Dogs & Cats, I bought the product 60mg in the clinic for £26.84. Back home I was doubting the high price for a plaque remover in such a small bottle. They are selling the procuct for 60% more! I immediately called the vet asking to bring the unopened prodcut back for a refund. They refused with the reason that i was told by the nurse that i can either buy it online or in the clinic!

Heartbreaking Loss Due to Misdiagnosis and Overmedication — Please Be Cautious I am deeply devastated by the care my beloved cat, Milo, received at this clinic under the supervision of vet Alexandra Chester. What began as an emergency visit for a brief body tremor (lasting only a few seconds) turned into an avoidable tragedy — due to what I believe was a misdiagnosis, overmedication with Meloxicam, and repeatedly dismissed concerns. I brought him in purely as a precaution, to rule out anything serious — especially since he was otherwise acting completely normal, healthy, and playful. Milo was completely healthy before this: eating, drinking, playing, and never having suffered from any illness. But his condition began to decline rapidly after being given Meloxicam over four consecutive days — a powerful anti-inflammatory drug that requires close monitoring. His initial blood tests were entirely normal. But after repeated doses of Meloxicam, abnormal results began to appear — yet no meaningful adjustments were made to his treatment, even as his condition clearly worsened. I raised my concerns multiple times and specifically requested further diagnostics like ultrasounds and scans. Instead, I was repeatedly reassured with comments like, “I’m not super worried about him. He’s not very ill. He is just in pain and we need to manage the pain with painkillers. No need for further tests.” I felt ignored and dismissed — as though his obvious decline wasn’t being taken seriously, and as if his life didn’t truly matter to them. Because of this negligence, I spent over £9,000 trying to save him — costs I never would have faced had Milo received appropriate care from the start. £1,895 was spent at this clinic, and £7,550 at the emergency hospital where he was finally referred once his condition became critical. But by then, the damage to his kidneys and stomach was extensive and irreversible. Milo spent his final days in pain and alone — and it breaks my heart knowing he was isolated in a hospital, without the comfort of familiar hands or the love he was used to. He underwent emergency surgery and spent two days in the ICU receiving intensive care. But it was too late. He didn’t recover. The emergency team ultimately made the decision to euthanize him — a moment I wasn’t prepared for, and one that will stay with me forever. What I truly lost is irreplaceable. I genuinely believe this could have been prevented had Milo received more attentive, cautious, and competent care from the beginning. Please think twice before trusting this clinic with your cat’s life. I’ve included two photos below: Photo 1 – Milo before treatment: taken the first day he was seen at the clinic — happy, healthy, and full of life. Photo 2 – Milo after his condition declined under the care of Alexandra Chester, just before being referred to the emergency hospital. At that point, she said: “I tried to figure out what was wrong, but I couldn’t. It’s better to refer him to a specialist.” By then, it was already too late. It breaks my heart to share this, but I do so in the hope that others won’t have to endure the same pain caused by such poor veterinary judgment.

The vet was friendly and professional. He treated our cat with confidence and care and explained everything clearly. The treatment worked very well and our cat recovered quickly.

Amazing team here - they're so considerate, caring and sensitive through difficult times. They always take their time with me and don't judge me when I get panicked or emotional about something my pet is experiencing, and when I had to put one of my cats to sleep they were so patient and understanding - they gave us time and space to say goodbye to her and they reassured me when I needed to hear that I'd made the right decision. Their treatments are very reasonably priced too - I travel there by taxi which costs me £50 each way, but even with the cost of travel it still works out cheaper than taking my pet to the local vets and getting her seen there. I'm lucky to have had their support through thick and thin and I appreciate their hard work and kindness in dark times.

I took my dog to have an operation the staff were very friendly and helpful, they kept me informed and were very considerate and very understanding due to the travelling I had to do to get there,they phone me next day to see how my dog was. Great service I would certainly recommend this vet.
