Welcome to the Chess Veterinary Clinic

The Chess Veterinary Clinic is in Hertfordshire with its main surgery in Rickmansworth just off Junction 17 of the M25 and a short walk from Rickmansworth High Street. It also has a branch surgery in the heart of Chorleywood High Street just off Junction 18 of the M25.

We offer outstanding veterinary care to small animals with a dedicated team in an independent practice proudly owned by Dr. Katrina Huntley BVSc CertVR MRCVS. We are an accredited practice under the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons Practice Standards Scheme providing the most recognised small animal excellence in veterinary care and client customer service.

Our patients are always our priority and by being an independent practice we are able to understand and recognise that taking your beloved pet to the vet can sometime be a stressful experience so we aim to alleviate this as much as possible by speaking your language. Please visit 'About Us' for further detailed information.
