Medivet Borehamwood

Medivet Borehamwood is part of the Medivet group and has been established since 1993. It offers 15-minute consultations and routine and general veterinary care for cats, dogs, rabbits and small mammals, with in-house X-rays and a laboratory listed on the practice website. Recent feedback points to a calm, caring and well-organised team, especially when explaining treatment options and handling nervous pets.
