Best Vets in Norfolk

Taverham Vets Longwater is part of a wider practice that includes a veterinary hospital with modern facilities and specialist equipment, plus two branch surgeries, a rehabilitation centre (hydrotherapy and physiotherapy), and a luxury cattery. The clinic also states it provides 24/7 support via a dedicated emergency service. In recent reviews, owners most often mention staff explaining findings in detail and being gentle with nervous pets; there’s also a recent 1‑star rating without a written explanation.

Uplands Way Veterinary Clinic is a long-established practice (the clinic website states over 100 years of experience). Recent reviews point to a setup that can handle both routine care and urgent situations: owners mention being seen promptly for “real emergencies,” and others describe being kept informed when emergencies caused delays. Practical touches noted include prompts to order repeat medications, a calm/clean environment, and support around end-of-life care (including a bereavement room mentioned by one reviewer).

Medivet Heacham is part of the Medivet group and offers routine pet healthcare alongside access to diagnostics (including X‑rays and an in‑house laboratory). The website lists 15‑minute consultations, and owners frequently describe thorough examinations and clear explanations—examples include detailed discussions about neutering for a kitten and careful work-ups for infections. Recent reviews also mention rapid access for urgent problems (an appointment within about two hours for a limping dog, and a same‑day check for a suspected tick that turned into an ear issue treated on the spot).

Toll Barn Veterinary Centre Limited is a family-run, independent practice that was purpose-built and opened in 2014 by Faye (a veterinary surgeon and Director). The clinic is set up to handle a wide range of in-house work, including complex surgical, medical and diagnostic procedures, supported by facilities such as an onsite CT scanner, laser therapy, platelet regeneration and cryotherapy. The website states a 24/7 on-site out-of-hours emergency service for existing clients, with a vet and nurse on duty overnight.

Chapelfield Veterinary Partnership is a long-established, five-branch practice (over 100 years, per its website) that offers routine appointments as well as faster-turnaround care when something is urgent (for example, one reviewer says their dog was seen immediately after an attack). Clinic data also lists emergency veterinary services and that it’s a veterinary nurse training facility. Recent reviews frequently mention being seen quickly and that vets handle anxious cats gently, but there are also recurring concerns about cost transparency—particularly around medication pricing and itemised bills—and one report of serious admin/consent issues related to the Pet Health Club.

Jollyes is a pet retail store that also advertises an in-store Community Pet Clinic and dog grooming. Based on the information available, it’s set up primarily for pet supplies across multiple species (dogs, cats, birds, small pets, reptiles and fish), with staff support that reviewers describe in practical terms—such as help carrying heavy items to the car and talking customers through product choices (for example, hutches and pet food). Reviews are mostly positive about the range after a revamp and staff help, but there’s also a recent complaint alleging poor welfare of feeder insects (left without water/food).

Vets One Group (Kings Lynn) Ltd is part of the Vets One Group and operates as a veterinary practice with support from a wider group that also runs a veterinary hospital. Based on the website and recent reviews, it appears set up for routine preventative care as well as more involved work, including imaging, orthopaedics and dental procedures (with a bespoke dental theatre and X‑ray mentioned). The website states emergency care is available 24/7.
