Family Owned, Independent Vets in Chelmsford

Ozzy had a really lovely puppy check up today everyone was friendly and welcoming. He had a full look over and ended up falling asleep in reception after his check up he was that comfortable.

I honestly cannot thank Marketa and the team enough for the care and professionalism shown to both myself and Bella the other day. Bella attended for a follow-up echocardiogram after previously being seen at a much larger referral practice regarding a heart murmur and sadly the start of heart disease. That experience was significantly more expensive and, if I’m honest, I was only really spoken to for around five minutes with very little explanation or follow-up afterwards. As a worried owner, I came away feeling quite underwhelmed. It felt more style over substance unfortunately. Knowing Bella needed another review, I then came across Vista Vets and emailed over my concerns. From the start they were very helpful, reassuring and informative about what they could offer and, honestly, it turned out to be one of the best decisions. The experience was the complete opposite. Everything was explained clearly and thoroughly, and what really stood out to me was the level of medical knowledge and expertise throughout the appointment. Marketa was thorough, knowledgeable and reassuring, and it was very clear Bella was in experienced hands. I left feeling that the echocardiogram and findings had been carefully reviewed and properly explained rather than rushed through. Considering Bella has the start of heart disease and a murmur, which is why these scans are so important to monitor her medication, the outcome was as positive as I could realistically hope for. It was incredibly reassuring to hear the medication is working well, and I left feeling genuinely relieved and supported, with a full explanation and report provided afterwards. The service, communication and overall care received were fantastic and I genuinely would not hesitate to recommend them. Thank you again for everything.

Fantastic and understanding vets! Dr James allowed me time to answer my (many) questions! I had to debate with the idea of surgery for my guinea pig with bladder stones and Dr James was open, honest and showed compassion. He explained everything simply and showed me the X-ray in detail. The receptionist Amanda also helped me by giving me ideas on how to help my children process the sad news of a poor prognosis. I’m so happy I found these vets! Highly recommend.

Such a lovely and caring vets! Thank you for your help with my cocker spaniel after he had a grass seed in his ear! Highly recommend! Always so good with all my dogs! Thank you

Lovely vets, highly recommend them. We lost our old much loved Guinea pig and they even took the time to send a condolences card that was signed by all the staff, it’s the little things that count a lot

Absolutely love this vets! My dog has just had a large lump removed from his ear and dental treatment and he was very well looked after. The staff are so friendly and efficient, that’s Hollie, Millie and Peter( that I’ve met so far)I’ve only just joined this practice but already know my dogs are in very safe hands. Easy to get to and parking on site. I highly recommend this vets surgery

Amazing team of people that really do care about your animals. Can highly recommend them

Our boxer had an op to remove cancer. It was very overwhelming and they were all extremely reassuring and did a wonderful job. 2 weeks on she’s healing beautifully and back to herself.

I would give this vet 20/10 the care and compassion I received from Dan one of the vets there yesterday was above and beyond, the best vet I have come across when having to say goodbye to a much loved pet. Liz fremont

We are so pleased we found out about this vets. So caring and kind to our dog and rabbit. I’ve never known a vet to want to help as much as these! They really know there job well, thank you.

Me and my wife work on the same estate and we are so so glad these guys moved in, not only are they massively conveniently placed, but they are some of the loveliest most caring people. From the initial telephone conversation right through to consultation they are perfect. Lastly the building is clinically clean and tidy, the perfect place for those looking for a vet 🙂 can't ask or want for more!

After having to change vets and not totally feeling happy with my new choice, remembered seeing about a new vet practice that opened last year and after doing some digging found you and am so glad I did. Took Casey today and after being so impressed with the whole experience I have registered Casper with you as well. Dan and his colleague totally put Casey at ease and even managed to cut her claws which was amazing - thank you so much will be recommending you to friends and family 😀

fabulous service, Peter saw my injured cat very last minute at the end of the day. everyone is so friendly and polite and accommodating. Highly recommended ❤

After our previous vets diagnosed Loki with a Luxating Patella we wanted to go to another vets to get a second opinion and our friend recommended Vista Vets. We had our consultation and we were so impressed with the whole experience. The detailed information we received from Peter about Lokis condition and what we needed to do was so amazing and we just knew he would be in the best hands. We then registered with them, Loki had the operation the following week and is recovering so well. To Hollie and the nurses, thankyou for being so welcoming and kind and answering all the questions we had, you made everything completely stress free and we couldn’t be more grateful to you all and we are so happy we found you. I would truly recommend everyone to Vista Vets.

Just wanted to thank Peter and the girls at VistaVets for their help and professionalism today after I had to take a very hard decision to let my Betty go over rainbow bridge. They did all they could for her and me 💔

I am delighted to have found such a professional and welcoming independent vet in the area after some disappointing experiences with corporate vets. Peter and the staff are so approachable and their treatment and caring of our pets is fantastic. I highly recommend.

lovely practice hidden away in the back of chelmer village industrial state. Vet Peter did an amazing job with our kitty cat today removing a tumor of our kitty cats ears. thank you so much

I had a completely new experience visiting this vet's. They were friendly and welcoming and very thorough. The consultation with the vet was outstanding. I would highly recommend. They appeared to be very caring and you weren't rushed.

The vet and nurses are absolutely brilliant so kind and went above and beyond for my little pug. They stayed open later to see her in an emergency and treated fast and made her comfortable. I’m so grateful for your time and fantastic service. Thank you

Took my poor old dog this week, hadn’t been to a vets for a few years, had bad experience with previous vet. Great service very friendly and thorough from start to finish. Peter explained everything clearly & if I had further questions to call him. My only regret is not finding them sooner. Easy parking. Bit of advice for those trying to find it, when Sat Nav says you are there keep going quite a way down the road, just after the road bends to the right, the practice is on the left, look out for Trade City.

Mabel went to Vista Vets today for her first jabs and check up. The Receptionist was delightful, the Vet was fantastic, informative and very kind to Mabel. It was all round great experience, thanks everyone.

I cannot recommend VistaVets highly enough. Peter & Marketa and their whole team are exactly the type of vets you want for your pet. Kind, professional and very knowledgable. As well as routine visits, they helped us through a very stressful labour & birth of our puppies. I cannot thank them enough for all their efforts and going above & beyond to help us. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fantastic service for my dog , would highly recommend, 5 star service , caring and very professional

We have our two labradors registered here (& our other small furries!) at Vista Vets and wouldn’t go anywhere else. A brand new practice with friendly reception staff and great, informative vets and nurses who truly care for your animals ❤️

So happy to have found an independent vets for my dog. It’s good to see the same vet every visit and everyone at the practice is so lovely, friendly and efficient. Even Yoko loves going back there!!
