Proudly independent vets, for happy, healthy pets!

With a heritage of independent care stretching back over 150 years, we pride ourselves on the deep bonds we build with our clients and their pets. Visit us in Hersham, Cobham, Thames Ditton, or Shepperton for a truly personal veterinary experience.

Our Story

Beech House Vets is one of Surrey’s oldest practices, owned by two families, since it was originally established in the 1870s. Jamie Crittall and his wife, Charlotte took over the practice in 2005 from his father and godfather (the two Johns) Mssrs Crittall & Westaway. Remaining proudly independent, Jamie and Charlotte are absolutely delighted to have Suzie Blunt join them in owning Beech House Vets.

Our experienced, longstanding team treat every patient like their own, building fantastic bonds with our clients to ensure they receive the highest standards of care.

We have four fantastic sites, located in Hersham, Cobham, Thames Ditton, and Shepperton. Our team strive for excellence, putting you and your pets needs first. We look forward to welcoming you, making Beech House home to your pets care. ​​

Our Vision

To be the leading independent veterinary provider in the region, celebrated for our commitment to clinical excellence and our heritage of personalised service. We aim to shape a healthier future for all pets by remaining a trusted, local alternative to large corporate veterinary groups.

Our Mission

To deliver outstanding independent veterinary care across our four Surrey communities, upholding the family-owned values that have defined our practice since the 1870s. We strive to foster lasting relationships with our clients while ensuring every pet receives the compassionate, high-quality treatment they deserve.

Our Promise

We pledge to treat every patient with the same love and dedication as if they were our own, putting their wellbeing at the heart of everything we do. You can expect a warm welcome, professional integrity, and a longstanding team that genuinely cares about your pet’s journey.

Our Services

Across our four sites, we are able to offer an extensive range of services for you and your pet. With the most up-to-date clinical facilities and a highly skilled team, we are equipped to provide exceptional care from routine check-ups to advanced procedures.

Consultations

Our range of consultations includes primary consultations, follow-up appointments, second opinions, and routine preventative care. During each visit, one of our experienced veterinary surgeons will carry out a thorough health check of your pet and guide you through the next steps and any recommended treatment options. Wherever possible, we aim to provide continuity of care by arranging for your pet to see the same vet throughout their treatment, but rest assured your pet will be in excellent hands with any of our experienced veterinary surgeons.

Vaccinations

Our comprehensive vaccination protocols for cats, dogs and rabbits provide essential protection against a range of serious and potentially life-threatening diseases. Vaccinating your pet not only safeguards their health, but also helps protect the wider pet population by reducing the spread of these infectious diseases. Our experienced veterinary surgeons and registered veterinary nurses will guide you through tailored puppy and kitten vaccination schedules, advising on the compatibility of different vaccine brands if your pet has already started their primary vaccinations before joining your family.

New Pet

Welcoming a new pet into your home is an exciting time, but it can also come with lots of questions. Our friendly vets and nurses are here to support you every step of the way, offering guidance tailored to you and your new companion. We can help with everything from preventive healthcare such as vaccinations and parasite protection, to advice on diet, behaviour, and settling your pet into their new home, helping give them the healthiest and happiest start in life.

Surgical Procedures

Our skilled veterinary surgeons perform a wide range of surgical procedures in our dedicated, sterile operating theatres, ensuring your pet receives safe and high-quality care. For more complex cases, we work closely with a visiting surgical specialist who attends the practice to carry out advanced soft tissue and orthopaedic surgeries. This allows your pet to access referral-level treatment while remaining in the familiar surroundings of Beech House. However, where more specialist care is required, we also have strong relationships with trusted local referral centres, ensuring your pet can always receive the most appropriate treatment for their needs.

Diagnostic Imaging

We offer a comprehensive range of in-house diagnostic imaging, including digital X-ray, ultrasound, endoscopy, and dental X-ray. Having access to multiple imaging options within the practice allows us to thoroughly investigate your pet’s condition. This broad range of diagnostic tools helps our vets reach a clear diagnosis sooner, so we can recommend the most appropriate treatment for your pet without unnecessary delays.

Dentistry

Pets can be very stoic when it comes to dental pain, but undetected oral disease can contribute to a range of wider health concerns. This makes regular dental checks an important part of your pet’s ongoing care. Our vets are experienced in carrying out thorough dental examinations and procedures to help maintain good oral hygiene and comfort. If your pet needs to undergo a dental procedure, you can rest assured they are in good hands. With the added benefit of in-house dental X-rays, we’re able to carry out a thorough assessment and provide complete, tailored treatment for your pet’s oral health needs.

Delighted to find a good reasonably priced vet who understands about anxious fur baby mummy’s. They are all excellent at what they do with clearly explained fees. I highly recommend them.

We've been using Beech House at Hersham with our greyhound for over 4 years now and they've always been great, whether for routine treatment, minor illness or (none case) a serious injury. I'd recommend them to any dog owner.

Service and staff behavior are very disappointing. Management’s solution to staff issues is simply to suggest booking an appointment when that staff member isn’t working, rather than addressing the problem. Staff behave unprofessionally, and when challenged, the blame is put back on clients. It’s also nearly impossible to see the same vet consistently, which makes continuity of care very difficult. I won’t be returning and would rather support an independent local vet.

I would just like to say the Beech House vets Hersham are the best.
And a big thank you to Pedro one of the vets he showed such compassion to us when we had to say goodbye to our beautiful cat Clara last week, she was like a human and one of our family! The vets have been caring and have arranged everything with ease. Would very highly recommend to friends and family.

We’ve been bringing our Jack Russell to Beach House Vets for a few years now and have always had an excellent experience. The team are professional, caring, and genuinely brilliant with animals. We’ve visited both the Cobham and Hersham branches and consistently receive outstanding service at both. They take the time to explain everything clearly and really go the extra mile. Highly recommended!

Thank you Beech House Vets your the most amazing customer service. Yesterday we found a cat in our garden with no collar or anything. We took the little one to Beech House Vets to see if we could locate his parents. The service I received was next to none. I have no pets, I did not know what to do. They provided me with all the essentials I needed to get me through the night along with some food. Safe to say we found the parents. Thank you to all the team, you were absolutely amazing. Thank you .

I have visited on 2 occasions recently with our dog and been seen by Pedro. He is great with her. He listens, and takes time to explain what is likely going on. Discusses treatments or options and probable outcomes. We love his approach to our dog’s care.

Pedro was fantastic with my slightly nervous German shepherd who had a bad experience with his last vets. He was seen promptly and made sure my boy was comfortable before giving him his vacation.

Just had my first appointment here. They were very friendly and accommodating (managing to squeeze in an appointment for me after I went to the wrong branch), got my cat’s vaccinations up to date and gave me lots of helpful information. A happy new customer!

Best vet surgery. Everyone there is friendly, kind and helpful. Pedro is the best vet we ever had. The cats actually trust him and like him which no easy feat for a vet.

I can’t rate Beech House highly enough. They are so helpful and compassionate. Great in emergencies as well as keeping on top of annual vaccinations and health checks. It’s a lovely clean environment too.
