We are the largest veterinary practice in Tamworth, Staffordshire and the surrounding area, with two locations; Tamworth and Atherstone. There are nine veterinary surgeons and thirteen nurses to provide the best clinical care for your pet. We have more staff with advanced qualifications, great prices and provide more state-of-the-art services than any other local vet practice.
We have particular experience in orthopaedic surgery (bone and joint surgery), soft tissue surgery, eye problems (ophthalmology), heart problems (cardiology), arthritis management and cancer treatment. Riversmeet Vets offers many advanced surgical procedures both to our clients and to other veterinary surgeons by referral.

Services
Both locations are RCVS (Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons) accredited small animal practices. The Tamworth surgery is also a registered Veterinary Nurse Training Practice. We offer the choice of nine full time experienced veterinary surgeons who work together to provide a wide range of veterinary skills to care for your pet.
Emma (RVN), Fiona (RVN), a second Emma, Naomi, Rachael, Jade, Kate, Mia, Lydia, Stephanie and Emily make up our hard working and dedicated team of thirteen veterinary nurses. They strive to provide the best care for our patients while keeping the vets in control! This is truly a difficult balancing act which they perform on a daily basis.
To help save you money and to promote regular vaccination we have introduced a great new plan where you make a low single initial payment and we will vaccinate and perform a free heath check once annually for the rest of your pet's life. There has been a small increase in price of all procedures to reflect recent improvements to the standard of care to our patients.
Protect the health and wellbeing of your pet while spreading the cost by signing up to the Riversmeet Pet Health for Life plan. Pet Health for Life has been designed to cover the essential needs of your pet, whilst also saving you money. All year-round flea, tick and worming treatment including lungworm in dogs and ear mites in cats.
Both surgeries have an in-house dispensary providing a convenient one-stop service for treating your pet. We carry most drugs in-stock for immediate use. Less commonly used drugs may have to be ordered in for collection the next day. On request we are happy to inform you of our price for any medication prescribed to your pet.

We had been struggling to get our dog booked in for a spay at our usual local vets (Ashwood in Sutton Coldfield - terrible) for nearly a year and after being passed from pillar to post due to poor organisation (and then receiving the quote!) we decided to look elsewhere and came across Riversmeet, which we saw had good reviews and reasonable prices. From start to finish the whole process has been smooth and easy and the aftercare has been second to none despite the Christmas opening hours. I would totally recommend them, we will be coming here from now on. Thank you!

Brilliant vets and great advice. I picked these due to them being toted as small animal expert for my rabbits and now we take the kittens there too. They always have flexible appointments and a car park at the side. My pets never mind a visit to the vets here and are spoilt with affection whilst there.

Imagine you take your beloved dog here as she fell incredibly ill over a 48 hour period, only to be told that they are unable to provide the necessary care for her, due to staffing issues. That's what happened to us. Absolutely heart-breaking, in the end the only option was to go elsewhere or euthanise. We ultimately made the difficult decision of euthanasia.
However it doesn't end there, we also used them for the cremation and the returning of ashes - at great expense. But even this was not done correctly, they had ordered an entirely different container to what we asked for. This caused them

We have been using this vets for 15 years, just for the booster shots nothing serous before! Wow if your pets ill (Go Somewhere Else Now) be prepared as they are going to do nothing other than sell you weeks of tablets, they charged us over £600. for tablets for over a month and our dog did not get any better just worse, We then went to a different vets for a second opinion, who that day preformed and emergency operation on our dog, even though we were not registered with them, they said he will be dead in the next few days and they said it should be reported, I showed them the tablets we had

This vets supposed to be waiting for us to arrive in order to put our dog down, turned up and they left him panting on the floor in pain for over 10 minutes,r when they finally saw us they offered us tests, completely oblivious we were there to put our dog down. Left him on oxygen for around 20 minutes before coming to get us to go into him. Traumatic and a horrible way to say goodbye to an amazing friend.

Riversmeet Vets is the practice I recommend to anybody who ask if I know a good vet.
Every let owner knows the Vets don't come cheap but Riversmeet remains one of the most reasonable about.
The Vets are some of the best around. All the staff from senior to junior.reception care about both the animals and owners.
They are the only Vets I trust for my babies 🐾
