For more complicated cases, Medivet Watford is a short drive away. Here, cases can be treated by our team of surgery, imaging, medicine and cardiology certificate holders and benefit from endoscopy, laparoscopy, advanced ultrasound and CT.

Medivet North Harrow hosts an OOH service so patients are hospitalised in the clinic overnight and there are no OOH or on-call shifts.

It is a 3-vet practice, led by our Branch Partner, Jaimin and has a nursing team made up of our Practice Manager, one RVN and two Patient Care Assistants.
