At Castle Vets in Reading, we strive to provide outstanding, compassionate veterinary care to improve the quality and length of life for pets and bring peace of mind and reassurance to their owners. Our aim is to provide a caring, professional personalised service, that recognises the individual bond you have with your pet and works with you to try and keep your pet happy and well throughout its life.Castle Vets is a fully independant small animal veterinary practice. It is owned and managed by veterinary surgeons David Terry and Peter Jackman, both of whom have been with us for over 25 years and still work full time at the practice. Castle Vets is a large, single centre, small animal veterinary practice in central Reading. We have been on our site on Tilehurst road since 1972 and our recently rebuilt premises now includes a separate but integrated cat clinic, outstanding in-patient wards and operating theatres (including specialist veterinary surgical procedures), spacious comfortable waiting areas, 8 consulting rooms for both vet and veterinary nurse consultations, diagnostics room with x-ray, ultrasound and endoscopy equipment and a well equipped laboratory and a large private car park. We are cat friendly at Castle Vets and are proud to be the only local practice offering completely separate cat facilities, including spacious cat-only in-patient wards, operating theatre, waiting areas and consulting rooms. European Veterinary Specialist Hannes Bergmann, has recently joined the fantastic team at Castle Vets. This is the first time that a European Veterinary Specialist has worked as a Consultant within a veterinary practice in Reading, meaning that the pets of Reading can undergo some very specialist surgical procedures, such as joint replacement and arthroscopy, without having to travel long distances. Our outstanding facilities make us the ideal choice as host practice for Vets Now who provide many local practices with out of hours emergency cover from our site. Our extensive facilities and collaboration with Vets Now, means that your pet can be cared for on-site 24 hours a day, 7 days a week should the need arise. A minimum of one veterinary surgeon and one qualified veterinary nurse remain on duty at the practice premises, whatever the time of day or night, to ensure regular monitoring and the administration of any required medications to our patients. Castle Vets is accredited by the RCVS, and is a Veterinary Nurse training centre

It's so often the case that at times of sadness we see the best side of humanity:
1) Oz (our 15yo cat) was badly injured in a road accident at 5-30am in the morning, and our wonderfully kind neighbours leapt out of bed and drove him to Castle Vets.
2) Unfortunately, he was so badly injured that he had to be put down, but the professional, sensitive and empathetic way in which vet Christel van Veen explained the situation and help us make the choice was hugely appreciated by us all. She was obviously extremely technically capable, but just as important, a really nice and caring person - she even sent us a card of commiseration the next day containing sentiments that were so touching and so much appreciated by us all.
I would recommend Castle Vets to anyone who cares for and loves animals. Read Less

Castle vets are amazing! Helped my dog Alfie, he is a lot better after his operation of new ear canals. David is an amazing vet and they all are. Good knowledge and they give great detailed advice. They will do everything they can to make sure the dog is happy. With all Alfie's allergies they make sure he is comfortable never let him suffer and they go through the insurers! Which is amazing helped me a lot this year. People say castle vets are expensive but they are defiantly worth the money! I was at another vets who cheap medication but came to operations and they wanted cash upfront and double the money! Castle vets worth every penny would recommend to anyone! After all it's about the pet not money, I love my dog and would do anything to make him happy. They work so hard and I thank them for everything they have done and still doing.

Took a guinea pig in to the overnight sister service when she broke her leg one night. Quite expensive but she was looked after and X rayed.
She was seemlessly handed over to the main day service where all options were discussed from micro surgery to euthanasia. Thankfully the vet found an option where she thought we could just take her home with pain relief and make her better.
We later got a call from her after she had discussed our case with a piggie specialist and offered further options that we can do at prices that make them a no brainer.

I live in Qatar and have done for a while, since popping out here for a single 2 week project. The issue I had was that on my short term move across, expecting to settle here my dog was in the UK, being looked after by a close friend.
After contacting Castle Vets and explaining my situation, they advised me what to do, whom to use and how best to tackle the situation of freight to Qatar. After a number of visits to the vets, we were ready to ship.
The level of service in and out of hours from the Surgeons and team member's was second to none - even though I was over 3000km way I felt as if I was the other side of the reception counter.
Phoenix is now here and is loving the warmer temperature, long beach walks and the extra space. With out the top class support of Castle this would not of been possible and I thank them for all the support and had work, looking after us.
