Great Islington based vets

I've had good and less good experiences here - one of the vets can be a bit rough and intimidating with cats (another one is absolutely lovely though, so it depends who you get,) but overall I'd give them 5 stars because they've always looked after our pets very well and have taken care of a couple of emergencies for us with a good deal of care and sensitivity.

Conveniently situated right by Canonbury station. Staff always friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Highly recommended.

in my opinion, Goddards are to focused on how much they are going to charge opposed to your pets welfare.
My dog had a urine infection which was treated with antibiotics and went. Goddards thought it may be the start of kidney failure and after 3 urine tests at £70 a test, were still not conclusive. They wanted to do another urine test and keep my dog in at a charge of £55 so they could " get a fresh sample".
I took my dog to another vet for a second opinion. £35 for a urine test and there's nothing wrong, no signs of kidney failure at all.
I can see that some people are really happy with Goddards and this is just my experience and my opinion.

I cannot fault the service provided by the Highbury Practice. We transferred to this vet many years back following an unfortunate experience at another local practice and have always been very impressed by the care and consideration with which our pets have been treated. Louise and her assistants were particularly sensitive and gentle in dealing with our 19 year old cat when his time came. I highly recommend the practice.

Friendly and professional staff. We used to live around the corner, but have moved to Cambridge almost three years ago. We couldn't find a vet locally who would offer the same level of expertise and understanding of my dog's health needs. Therefore I decided to take both my Scotties back to Goddard Highbury. Louise saved my older Scottie's life when he was still a puppy and she will remain being our vet for as long as we have dogs. My dogs feel comfortable there and never refuse the treat they are offered.
Additionally, I never had any difficulties with payments as this practice dealt directly with my pet insurance company. One of my dogs is on Goddard's cover plan for flea, worms and vaccinations, which is cheaper and better than the one I took for the other dog locally.

Vet Louise was appallingly harsh with our sensitive and gentle dog. We decided to move and we are now much happier as are our pets. Don't use them

We've been taking our cats here for years, and have always been super happy with the quality of the service, the reasonable prices, but--perhaps most importantly--the kindness and compassion of the staff. The vets can be a scary place, not just for the animals, but also for their owners, and the staff, both the vets and the nurses, have been full of information and support, but also genuine passion for what they do, and a very clear understanding of the often stressful situations in which owners find themselves. There was even a time when we were caring for a stray cat and gave them some of our cat's prescription de-wormer--one of the nurses scolded me for administering a prescription medication (with a smile, of course), but gave me a ton of useful advice on what to do next. I applaud the entire staff for being masters of their crafts.
