Katie and her team are amazing. I can't recommend them enough. Katie is so knowledgeable and experienced, clear and direct communication, and she cared for our pets as if they were her own. The well-being of animals is the most important thing to her. She is the best vet we have ever been to.

We got our puppy neutered two weeks ago. Katie was amazing and did pre and post op checks. Everything healed great with no complications and he was back to his usual self after a couple of hours ☺️ Katie's been there for all our pets over the years; cats, guinea pigs, dogs and definitely got us out of our fair share of bad situations.

Kilcock Veterinary Hospital is truly outstanding. As owners of a French Bulldog and two British Shorthair cats, we’ve visited the clinic many times over the past two years, and every experience has been exceptional. Dr. Kathy and the entire team are incredible — always friendly, supportive, and genuinely caring. They consistently go above and beyond, whether it’s routine check-ups, urgent concerns, or more complex treatments. Their flexibility with appointments and affordable pricing make a huge difference, and the quality of care is absolutely top‑class. The hospital itself is modern, clean, and extremely well-organized. The team communicates clearly, follows up after visits, and always makes sure our pets feel safe and calm. The range of services is excellent, from preventive care and diagnostics to treatment and ongoing support. Over the last two years, our pets have received various treatments here, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. It’s rare to find a veterinary practice that blends expertise, compassion, and professionalism so seamlessly. We wouldn’t go anywhere else. Highly recommended to all pet owners!

Katy was recommended to me by my niece when our beloved cavachon Lillie was struggling to breathe. Lillie has a heart problem and was really very sick. Katy treated her with the utmost consideration and explained the situation with courtesy and respect. Lillie is on a treatment plan of medications for her condition and within 3 days was jumping and playing like a puppy. She continues to grow in strength and vitality and is no longer showing signs of a struggle. Thank you so much to Katy and Chloe for your dedication and diligence and your love and respect for the animals you treat. The world is a great place for animals with vets like you and Lillie is one of these lucky ones.

Kilcock Veterinary Hospital is amazing. We cannot recommend Katy and the whole team highly enough. We have been taking our dog there for the last 4 years and they have always taken the best care of her. We are always so impressed by their skill, kindness, professionalism and genuine love of animals. They are the best. 5/5

I have been a customer of Katy's for over 30 years and the service has always been excellent. Katy has saved my dogs lives on a couple of occasions. She has just completed all the veterinary work for my two dogs to travel to Australia. Katy went above and beyond to ensure that every little thing was done correctly. It was a long and stressful process as Australia has so many rules. The dogs are now in Australia and I will be forever grateful to Katy and her team. I will find it hard to get a vet here that is as good and dedicated as Katy. I highly recommend this practice.

Girls in Kilcock Veterinary Hospital are amazing very flexible any easy to make an appointment prices are affordable and honestly better than any other vet that we went, but most important thing for me was that we weren't turned away when my dog was in pain and we didn't have an appointment dr.Katy Murphy took us and helped us quickly.

After our dog Bonnie was viciously attacked, Katie and her team took us in for an emergency appointment within minutes of calling them. They treated her straight away and guided us in the right direction on the next steps for Bonnie's treatment. I can't thank them enough for all their help and reassurance. Would highly recommend for anyone seeking a great local vet practice
