Veterinary Centre

The Queen Mother Hospital for Animals at The Royal Veterinary College provides a dedicated emergency service when our practice is closed - eg at night, weekends and on Bank Holidays. If your pet needs this service 'Out Of Hours', it is recommended that you phone The Queen Mother Hospital (QMH) first, so the vets and nursing staff are ready for your arrival.
