Goddard Veterinary Group

Goddard Veterinary Group is part of the Goddard Veterinary Group (the practice joined the group in 2008) and is RCVS accredited. The clinic’s website highlights in-house diagnostics (blood testing and X‑ray) alongside routine care such as consultations, vaccinations, and dentistry. In the latest reviews available to us, owners describe vets taking long-term responsibility for cats (including one vet being thanked for looking after a cat “from day one”) and praise for a specific clinician’s mix of technical skill and empathy; there is also a contrasting complaint about late opening and difficulty getting calls answered.
