Clinic Overview

Aldgate Veterinary Practice Limited describes itself as independently owned and focused on preventative, diagnostic, and emergency care for dogs, cats, and rabbits. The website states that out-of-hours emergencies are handled by the clinic’s own team of vets and nurses. In the latest reviews available to us, owners repeatedly mention clear step-by-step explanations during treatment, being fitted in quickly for appointments, and support around long-term conditions (for example, arthritis management and ongoing medication). One review also describes end-of-life care for a rabbit, including providing a keepsake of fur.
