One for the animals!

We all know how important it is to find a doctor that is a) nice b) within easy reach and c) available for emergency appointments. For those pet lovers out there, we also know how important it is to find a veterinary practice that ticks all of those boxes.

For that reason we have been doing our research, trying to find the best vets in the area that will be the perfect place for your pooch!

My cat is registered with Ditton Reach Veterinary Surgery which is located on Manor Road North, Thames Ditton. I have been going there for about 3 years and they are good. The vet is lovely, I manage to get an appointment that day and above all Burtie (the cat) seems pretty happy with my choice. Although they don't have a web site, you can contact them on 0208 224 5454.

Another option is Bushey Park Road Veterinary Surgery in Teddington. A friend of mine takes her dog here and no complaints. Contact them on 020 8977 3452.

Easily located for the Hampton folk is Sherwood Veterinary Group on Hanworth Road. Their number is 0208 979 6060, and they have an out of hours emergency number on 01634 666655.

The other option in Hampton is Willet House on Priory Road. They offer 24 hour service, surgery facilities and a friendly service. Call them on 020 3375 8595.

The last one is Alpha Veterinary Surgery on Stanley Road, Teddington. They run early and late appointments, there is plenty of parking and they cover pets across Surrey and Middlesex. Contact them 0208 943 2303.

We would love to hear where you take your pet for some TLC and send Hamptonpeople your comments on any of the practices above...there is nothing better than recommendation!
