Parkvets Veterinary Clinic

Parkvets Veterinary Clinic is part of the Parkvets group (the website references eight practices) and is accredited by the RCVS, with Cat Friendly Practice status. It offers care for dogs, cats, rabbits and exotics, and states it provides a 24-hour emergency service. Reviews most often describe thorough, explained examinations (“explained all the checks she was doing”), practical support for specific issues (medication that “helped tremendously” during fireworks), and ongoing case persistence (one owner says “Kate and her team never gave up and came up with a number of options” when their pet was very unwell). The clinic also promotes a Pet Health Club plan to spread routine-care costs via Direct Debit and offers Klarna/CarefreeCredit as payment options.
