Paws Colchester Veterinary Centre Limited

Paws Colchester Veterinary Centre Limited offers routine pet care (consultations, health checks, wellness screening and repeat prescriptions) and also handles some urgent and referral-led cases, with owners describing quick appointment accommodation when needed. Reviews repeatedly mention the team being calm and patient with large, strong dogs, and one owner describes a dental tooth extraction for a puppy after the procedure was explained clearly. The clinic also runs a Pet Health Club®/pet club plan (consultations included as part of the Pet Health Club® Plus plan is stated on the website), which multiple reviewers say helps with costs/value.
