  • BOAS Surgery

    BOAS, brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome, is a cause of upper airway obstruction in brachycephalic breeds. The most commonly affected dogs tend to be the smaller short-nose breeds, such as Pugs, French Bulldogs, English Bulldogs and Boston Terriers. Signs to look out for include exercise intolerance, gagging and loud noisy breathing. BOAS surgery is routinely performed at Medivet Kensington by our surgeon, VK and aided by nurses who have undertaken additional training in anaesthesia.

    Book an appointment with any of the vets to discuss whether your dog would benefit from the procedure.

  • Laparoscopic neutering

    Laparoscopic neutering (key hole spay) involves making 2 small incisions to remove the ovaries. There are many studies showing significantly improved recovery times for dogs, with up to 65% less post operative pain. Peter and Tom routinely perform this surgery on Wednesday, Thursdays and Fridays at the Kensington practice.

  • Nutrition Consult

    At Medivet Kensington we offer full nutritional assessments for cats and dogs, all
    ages and conditions. These clinics are run by one of our registered nurses who
    completed her nursing certificate in small animal nutrition in 2023.
    The initial consultation will last about 30 minutes. Follow up appointments are booked every 2-4 weeks depending on the case until the patient is stable or ideal weight is reached.
    For more information please ask at reception.

The Medivet team at this practice are excellent--My 2 dogs have been patients there for years. My 12 year old ruptured her ACL and couldn't walk on that leg, so they quickly x-rayed her and recommended surgery to repair the ligament. VK did an outstanding job on the surgery and she is 100% better. The surgery as well as the after care was all amazing. I have seen some very unfair bad reviews and these are either because they feel the receptionist was rude or that the charges were too high--so they give 1 star. I think the prices are fair--after all, it is a business and not a charity! I have pet insurance, which pays for most of the costs anyway. I highly recommend Medivet Kensington!

We had an emergency visit on Sunday to the Medivet office on the Gloucester Road. Sarah and Tom did a great job helping our Frenchie Hugo, who injured his neck. He was quickly examined and prescribed pain and inflammation medicine. Fingers crossed he is on the mend. A big thank you to Medivet Kensington and to Sarah and Tom.

I called Medivet Kensington when our local Medivet could not see our dog the same day. They offered an appointment within 1 hour of my call and were on time. The veterinarian Emma did a thorough examination of our dog, and reassured us and gave us a clear diagnosis. We felt Medivet Kensington was efficient, friendly and thorough.

The vet had such a loving way with our really nervous GSD that she could sense this and was calm whilst he cleaned her cyst wound in the hallway (he saw her there as she had her head under the chair and thought no one could see her.
