It was easy to arrange the appointment and the receptionist was flexible regarding the timing to fit around us.

We have trusted our pets to Chess Vets for 30 years. It’s good to have a reliable surgery in the village.

Making the appointment for the same day was very easy and the receptionist was really friendly when we arrived. The vet was punctual and had a great knowledge of my pet giving me lots of tips and helpful advice as a new owner.

The lovely vet Jess was very calm and understanding of our collie being awkward and anxious. Receptionist Jacqueline also lovely as usual.

From the minute you arrive at Chess the staff couldn’t be more accommodating. All the staff that I came across were professional, caring, understanding and so pleasant. I would highly recommend this practice to anyone.

The vets, nurses and reception staff are always super helpful. Very knowledgeable vets and easy to communicate with. Clear guidance given too. Thanks from Eddy and I!

I have always been very pleased with Chess Veterinary Clinic. The friendly reception with a separate section for cats helps your pet and yourself feel more at ease in a stressful situation. The vet was friendly, knowledgeable and explained everything so well that I felt more confident in dealing with my pet’s illness. I feel very lucky to have such a top level veterinary clinic near me and highly recommend it to everyone.

Lola is always so happy to visit the vet surgery and especially the vet team. As many people know a visit to the vets can be stressful for your pet but the Staff at this practice always go above and beyond to make it as stress free, quick and comfortable for my dog everytime.

I had a mini emergency with my dog and got an appointment very quick. The attending vet was very helpful, caring and dealt with us calmly and patiently and managed to sort her out in no time.

I visited the Chorleywood branch for my cats routine vaccination, upon arrival I was warmly greeted and I found the vet (Rosie) that treated my cat to be kind and gentle with my cat and highly personable. Many thanks Chorleywood Chess Vets!
