Clinic Overview

Veteris Shoreditch 24 Hour Animal Hospital & Urgent Care is a 24/7 urgent-care and emergency service that also offers phone triage and, when needed, home visits by a veterinary surgeon. Reviews describe both in-clinic emergency treatment (including surgery) and at-home support, with multiple examples of the team collecting details by phone before arrival to speed up admission. Owners also repeatedly mention follow-up contact after treatment (for example, a nurse calling the next working day, and another follow-up call a day after an emergency visit).

Based on the latest reviews available, the clinic is frequently used for poison/toxin ingestion cases (paracetamol, heart medication) and acute illness (e.g., bloody diarrhoea), and it has supported end-of-life care, including peaceful passing at home.

Services
