Village Vet Meldreth
Royston, Hertfordshire
General Info
Well established in the village, our Meldreth practice takes great pride in the work that we do.
We prioritise attention to detail and excellent customer service alongside genuine loving care, and have a real interest in our local community, working hard to be the friendly practice that the surrounding villages need. We fully immerse ourselves into the community and you will often see us at local events!
Head Vet Vanessa Nichols has been based at Meldreth for many years and along with Head Nurse Jo Brown, who lives in the village, and a dedicated team of nurses and receptionists we are proud to provide state of the art veterinary care.
Whilst the vets can advise on key areas of preventative health, medical and surgical requirements, the nurses are available for free consultations to discuss how best to take care of your pet.
We are always free for a chat about your pets’ health and would be delighted to help with any queries you may have, no matter how small.
Parking at Meldreth is easy and convenient, we have a dedicated carpark at the front of the surgery.
Out of hours, the same excellent service can be expected at our Whittlesford and Milton practices.

What a fantastic surgery and brilliant veterinary care.
I had to take my little rescue dog to the surgery as she was suffering with stomach pain and lack of appetite and my usual vets had no appointments available. She is so nervous usually going to the vets and Vanessa handled her so well!!!
I don't think we have ever had such a careful and thorough exam at a vets and it really filled me with confidence.
All of the staff were so friendly and welcoming and it felt like such a pleasure registering my little girl there.
I would most certainly recommend this vet surgery and I can safely say this will be my regular surgery from now on.

We've belonged to 2 Village Vets, both have given excellent care to our (slightly) complicated pooch. The vets have also been open to our observations and queries and educated us regarding her disease. I feel that our current vet knows her very well, which is real help in her disease management. I know there are sometimes question marks over using a chain vet, but the access to specialist care and the 24hr emergency service are important to us. Plus, neither main vet has ever made us feel like we're in a factory line of appointments. We had one issue with another local branch when she was having some tests, where pooch was less well-known and our question re her meds was not answered. Our usual vet sorted this out.

The professionalism, kindness and compassion provided by all the staff is second to none. No matter how busy they are, nothing is too much trouble. The team have cared for my cats for the last 18 years and enabled them to have as good a quality of life into old age, as is possible. Having an elderly pet can bring lots of worries and anxiety but everyone at the surgery has supported me through this. Thanks for taking the time to care for the humans too and for all you do for our four legged friends.

I have a 10 year old great Dane and village vet meldreth have been absolutely amazing with her. She's had a rough couple of years due to suffering from bloat, having a toe removed and a broken tooth but thanks to the team she has recovered well from all treatments and operations. She is a very nervous dog but the team have been patient and very caring not only to her but to me also.
I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants the very best for their pet.

My last visit with my dog was very good in Dec. 2016. My dog is elderly and all options were explained well and with sympathy. He fortunately doesn't mind going to see 'the ladies' so makes visits far less stressful. All staff there are caring and interested in Toby's welfare, including treats from Debbie!

Wonderful service yesterday. Our own vet was closed. We had to take in our cat to be put to sleep. The service was efficient and compassionate. Lovely reception staff and terrific vet. She was super tolerant of me as a tried to hold it together. We have a lovely vet in Notting Hill but I'd recommend Village in Hampstead to anyone in that area. Excellent

I cannot rate this practice and the staff more highly. Earlier this year we had to have one of our elderly cats put to sleep and Vanessa was amazing. She explained everything in a kind, professional manner and reassured us throughout whilst caring for our beloved pet. More recently another of our cats has been diagnosed with early kidney disease - again this has been dealt with professionally. I have no doubt that the animals have the best care whilst at this practice and the vets, nurses,and receptionists are 110% dedicated and devoted to ensuring the best is done for them - they are also fantastic at managing very concerned and anxious owners.

Huge thanks to all at VVL. A truly 24-hour service with the masterful Crina in the smaller hours and the excellent Helen during the day (though Rebekkah will take the credit if she keeps muddling her overalls). Between them they restored our Havanese to his exuberant self, while the clinic also reunited a stray with his owners. All in a day's and night's work. With huge thanks and industrial quantities of admiration.

Great people and great vets. Can't go wrong in selecting them. If you want the best for your pets go to them. Definitely worth it. To all the people complaining about prices, just remember that there is no NHS for pets, so don't expect rock bottom or free treatment if you want the best equipment and the most qualified vets in the industry!

Late one evening I brought my 15 year old dog in after being Savaged by another dog. She was in a very poor state. The Village Vet team were brilliant. First they patched me up as I had also been bitten and then they operated on Sally and saved her life. Every member of the team was brilliant, considerate and skillful. Sally is now fully recovered so a big thank you.

Wonderful staff and vets. Bruce at Maida Vale was the best vet for our beloved kitten Picasso. He was both an excellent professional and compassionate as we had to recently place our kitten to sleep due to an ongoing illness. I truly thank Village Vet for all they did for Pic and cared for him so well. Bruce was always realistic and supportive of his diagnosis. We will eventually adopt another animal and will take them to Village Vet again.
