“It was a bank holiday weekend and all of the local vets were closed and my cat was very sick. If it hadn’t have been for the kind, caring and talented vets that had been available over those few days, then my cat wouldn’t have still been with us now. I owe them so much and thank them for all that they have done for me and my cat. Fantastic service”

“My cockapoo puppy had eaten a bar of chocolate late at night. I was panicking & phoned Vets Now for advice. The girl on the phone couldn’t have been nicer or more helpful. She reassured me & didn’t just tell me to come up, just so they could make money. They were exceptionally helpful & I would recommend them to anyone. Thank you so much!”

“My puppy of 11 months old was rushed to Thamesmead VETS NOW yesterday evening after a combination of vomiting, lack of appetite and poo in the blood. We were obviously concerned and so were our local vets! When he arrived at Thamesmead he was given anti sickness injection and a blood test within 20 minutes of being seen and was admitted overnight. The Vet called me and spoke me through step by step what treatment they were giving my puppy and were happy to answer any questions I had. She was also very honest and said what could happen and what they would do if things did change. I called at 22:00 for an update (needy dog-mum I know!) and Julie one of the nurses there was more than happy to help me, she gave me an update on my puppy and said she had been stroking him until he fell asleep settling him! She explained he would be checked on every 2 hours and she would call me if anything changed. She said “there isn’t a shortage of love and cuddles here!” Really put my mind at rest. She said she would call again at 08:00am in the morning with an update, come 07:30am I already had a phone call to say he had made a dramatic recovery overnight and they would be happy to discharge him for further fluids at our local vets! She said he was a totally different dog to when he came in and the fluid therapy treatment had enhanced his recovery. They acted so quickly, professional and caring and I don’t know what we would have done if they didn’t give the care to him over night! Would highly recommend as an emergency vets – they have a genuine passion for helping animals and treat them as they would they’re own. Very thankful to the Thamesmead team!”

“The articles on pain were most helpful. However, I often wonder if a dog that is in pain keeps his or her tail close to the bum? Thank you.”

“Had to visit Vetsnow in Colchester overnight a week ago Sunday. Cannot stress enough how good they were, especially Attila and Victoria. My dog went into labour early and one of the puppies was in trouble. We were there all night, arriving with 3 puppies and leaving with 10 ! They helped my dog out so much that the fear of her having to have a Caesarian was taken away. Attila even stayed 5 hours after the end of his shift to make sure we were all ok. I honestly think that without these wonderful people I would not have the georgeous litter I have and maybe not their mum. Thank you so much.”

“A week last Wednesday we were called by the North East Scotland referral centre our 11 month puppy was at to say that he needed a third operation for a septic infection and that after care would be critical to his survival. They recommend a transfer to the Vets Now hospital in Glasgow and we decided that given his age it was worth one more shot at fixing him. On the 3 hour drive to Glasgow I read some of the reviews online about Vets Now and began to be nervous at what we would find when we arrived. I therefore now want to take this opportunity to put other peoples minds, in the same situation as we were, at ease. Make no mistake that this hospital is amazing, the staff are highly skilled and extremely professional and without a doubt my puppy would not be alive with out them. Yes it is VERY expensive (it is the equivalent of a private hospital but with better! facilities) but this is your responsibility as loving owners to get the right insurance. There are no excuses of age or the fact the dog is a rescue (I have a 16 year old rescue who is covered the same as the puppy) so do your research and get insured for all eventualities - even 11 month puppies get critically ill. The hospital treated our Pup as if he was theirs but also treated us with consideration at all time including regular calls and updates. They also explained what the cost was and what the options were and I know lots of reviews on here mention the fact that money is their only goal but that's not the case at all they just want to make it clear what the treatment will cost (if you aren't insured or your insurance is capped) and further down the line you will be grateful for this. Appreciate I am on my soap box here... therefore Id also like to take this opportunity to thank, Nathalia (?), Emma, Dan and Liz (and all the others behind the scene that I didn't meet) for what they did to make sure my pup made his first Birthday.”

“They were great with my French bulldog, Cooper when he fractured his growth plate in his knee. He was only 6mths and they gave great advice until I could get to my vet for an operation”
