Bishop's Stortford Veterinary Hospital

Bishop's Stortford Veterinary Hospital is an independent practice (“proudly independent since 1878”) with veterinary hospital status (achieved in 1985). It’s set up for small animals, with a stated emphasis on investing in equipment and staff training, and it runs its own 24-hour emergency service with an in-house duty vet and nurse.

From the latest written feedback available, one owner describes returning years later with an older cat and receiving “kindness and compassion” alongside sustained effort and attention during an upsetting situation.
