Medivet Chafford Hundred

Medivet Chafford Hundred is part of the Medivet group and is set up for routine care plus in-practice diagnostics, with an in-house laboratory and equipment/services such as X‑rays, ultrasound and ECG. The clinic also lists 15‑minute consultations, nurse clinics, home visits, and support for cats, dogs and rabbits, and it’s marked as a veterinary nurse training facility.

From the latest reviews available, owners most often describe being able to get appointments quickly (including same-day), staff helping with handling nervous pets, and vets taking time to explain options. One reviewer reports a clear trust issue around being told a third puppy vaccination was “mandatory,” then cancelling a monthly membership after checking with other practices.
