Village Vet Hampstead

Village Vet Hampstead is part of the Village Vet group and has been operating since the 1920s. The practice is set up for both routine care and more complex work, with a multi-floor facility that includes an operating theatre, hospital wards, a full laboratory, digital radiography, ultrasound, endoscopy, and an intensive care unit. The website also states it is open 24/7 for emergency pet care and that it’s an accredited dog friendly clinic (Dogs Trust and the British Veterinary Behaviour Association).

In the latest written reviews available, owners most often describe urgent/emergency visits where they were seen quickly, felt un-rushed, and had clear explanations—alongside specific praise for staff help during stressful situations (including support with paperwork).
