Pennard Vets Borough Green – Vets in Sevenoaks
Clinic Overview
Pennard Vets Borough Green is part of the Pennard Vet Group (described in one review as employee-owned) and is set up as a small practice backed by a larger team for procedures and urgent care. The website lists a wide range of small-animal services (including in-house lab work), and owners most often mention practical, low-stress handling—especially for anxious or skittish pets—plus clear options rather than being pushed into one route.
Concrete specifics owners mention include: staff giving nervous animals time to settle before examining them; nail clipping done in a way that keeps a typically sensitive greyhound calm (treats, getting down to the dog’s level); support during end-of-life situations; and help getting first vaccinations and pet-club registration sorted promptly.

This is a very over due review my dogs have been frequent flyers at Pennards, Borough Green for many years. I can’t praise them highly enough it’s one thing to be fantastic knowledgeable Vets but the compassion and empathy of all has been truly wonderful. In particular I have to mention Vet Ella and Anna on reception, who have been there for us in the hardest of times and really do go the extra mile. When my dogs have needed operations the team at Sevenoaks have been professional and caring, I wouldn’t go anywhere else I TRUST Pennards and that means everything.

My greyhound actually doesn’t mind going to the vet if it’s Ella, who gets down to his level, talks to him, gives him treats and pets him. I’m convinced he actually offers her his paw when it’s nail-clipping time and doesn’t even flinch when he has an injection. Very unlike greyhound behaviour.

Great vets, really want to look out for your pet and give lots of options. Lovely friendly staff, honest and they don't rip you off. They really have hearts of golds and want to look after there parents health and needs. Very happy with these vets and they understand my pets anxiety in the vets and give her time to adjust to her surroundings before looking into the issues my pet has with her health. Best thing I did was move to the borough green pennard vets. Thank you to the small team they have there. You make me as an owner feel at ease and you're all amazing.

What an amazing veteranary practice! Such a lovely vet and staff, so kind, understanding and knowledgeable . Besides my complete confidence in the practice, my Obi cat was so at home, loving the massage and treats. Being a rescue he has always been skittish when I take him to a vet, but here he was happy and calm. Thank you both for making not only mine but Obi's experience so memorable

Took my handsome 8 week old Cock-a-Tzu Benny to the vets for his first vaccinations. Pennards were brilliant, they got everything we needed sorted quickly and helped us complete our pet club registration early to make sure everything was covered. He loved the vet and the receptionist so I feel confident that I won't have issues there in the future. Pictures of my beautiful boy, just because ❤️

A lovely, small veterinary practice, supported by a larger local group of practices, owned by the employees. Pennards is an outstanding name in West Kent's veterinary provision, and Fotios Kapsomidis is a dedicated, caring and knowledgeable practitioner. I have no hesitation in recommending his services to anyone seeking exemplary veterinary care for their companion animal.
