Which vets have published their prices?

Every UK vet has to put a standard price list on its website, the big chains by 23 December 2026 and everyone else by 23 March 2027. We check every vet's site for one. So far 67% of the 5,808 vets we have checked have a price page. Here is who has and who has not, group by group and county by county.

Checked is how many of the group's vets we have looked at. Price page means a page on the vet's website, reachable from its home page, whose link or address says price, pricing or fees. One click away means the home page links straight to it, as the rules require. Prices read means we found the standard list and read the numbers. Lines of 36 is how many of the standard prices the list carries, on average.

Who publishes most fully

A score out of 100 for how completely a vet publishes what the rules ask for: a price page, one click from the home page, how many of the 36 prices, whether VAT is stated, flea and worm prices, who owns it, and its care plan. The UK average is 36.

The score measures openness about prices, not the quality of care. A vet can score badly here and be excellent at its job.

How to read this page

We say "no price page found", not "breaking the rules". Deciding the second is for the regulator. A vet may publish prices in a way our checker misses, such as an image, a PDF behind a form, or a page whose link says "our services". If that is your practice, tell us where the list is and we will read it within two working days. We re-check every vet at least monthly, the big chains weekly, and daily around each deadline.
