Companion Care (Hatfield) Ltd T/A Vets4Pets

Companion Care (Hatfield) Ltd operates this practice under the Vets4Pets brand (a corporate group). The clinic appears set up for both routine care and a range of in-house diagnostics and procedures, with an operating theatre, isolation unit, separated dog/cat wards, and equipment such as digital X-ray and ultrasound. The website lists advanced services including orthopaedics (for example, cruciate surgery) and in-house lab work (biochemistry/haematology). Recent reviews are mixed: several owners describe clear, supportive communication around end-of-life decisions (including being given time, options, and a condolence card), while a small number report poor interactions and concerns about staff attitude and money-focus.

The staff are rude, they havent a clue what they are doing. They didnt know I was a vet nurse and tried to tell me my dog was being aggressive and he needed a muzzle on. He clearly didnt, I just explained he was growling because hes a rottweiler. They didnt believe me

The staff/business cares only about money (the ones we encountered) but that's to be expected in a capitalist society. Were very unhelpful and our pet ended up passing away

Thank you for being so kind. We recently attended this vets as our old bean kitty needed to be put down due to ill health. The staff were amazing, they allowed us time with our cat. They were helpful, didn't rush us and gave us all the options of what we could do. Today we were greeted with a beautiful card of condolences and it's honestly meant the world to us. We both struggled with the process but no one made us feel bad or rushed. Staff were understanding & kind. Thank you for caring.

We bought a new dog. We talked to a lot of veterinarians, but Vets4Pets was the one who gave us the most information. Welcome was very warmly welcomed at the desk. We bought a new dog. Our veterinarian Orabella greeted us with a smiling face and explained the whole process in detail. He carefully examined our dog. Thank you very much. We also say a big thank you to LORINDA in the shop section. She recommended us every product that might be necessary for our new dog, gave us detailed information and was really interested. I love people who love their job.

We have been registered with Hatfields Vets4Pets for a number of years and couldn’t be happier with them. I had to make the heartbreaking decision to put my old boy to sleep on the 28th because of a progressive disease that couldn’t be fixed. Our vet Orabella was absolutely amazing, she tried her hardest to find a solution but sadly, it was progressing quicker than we hoped, and she was there to comfort us as my boy passed in my arms. I have never felt pain quite like this, but thanks to all of the amazing staff at Vets4Pets, we had the support and comfort we desperately needed. We still have our two bunnies registered here and wouldn’t go anywhere else. Thankyou Vets4Pets Hatfield for treating my boy with the dignity and respect he absolutely deserved.
