About Us
We are based in the lovely town of Hertford and have 2 Vets, 1 RVN, 2 VCAs and a Receptionist as part of our brilliant team.

The practice has great clientele with a high percentage of insured pets, and we also run 30‑minute appointments for non‑routine cases and 15‑minute for vaccine, to give the best service possible. We have a wide and varied case load with specialists coming to the practice to perform an array of procedures such as cardiac scans, abdominal ultrasound with sampling, and orthopaedic procedures.
Our Head Nurse had the following to say about practice: “The team at Hertford Vets for Pets is lovely and I felt it was a good‑paced general practice. I learnt a lot during my time there and enjoyed the balance of nurse consults, anaesthesia and head nurse duties.”
