A "from" price is the starting figure. Prices over £20 are rounded to the pound; the practice's own page has the pence. Where the vet says what a price includes, such as the anaesthetic, pain relief or a check afterwards, it is written under the price.

Where it is
What owners say
5.0★★★★★3 reviews on Google. 100% of reviews give five stars.
The rating is Google's, not ours. A high average from a handful of reviews says less than a slightly lower one from hundreds. We do not copy the reviews themselves.
How openly it publishes
- Price page on its website
- One click from the home page
- 13 of the 36 standard prices
- Says whether prices include VAT
- Flea and worm prices published
- Says who owns the practice
- Explains its pet care plan
The score counts the things the rules ask a practice to publish. It measures openness about prices, not the quality of care.
Pet care plans
The monthly plans this practice sells, and a rough check on whether one pays for itself.
| Plan | For | Per month | Per year | What the practice says it includes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| The Buddy Plan | any all pets / not banded | – | £120 | Vet consultation, annual vaccinations, flea & worming prescription included, plus 30% off further consultations. |
A rough check only. Most plans also include flea and worm treatment, nail clips and a discount on other work, and this sum counts only a yearly booster and two consultations. If you would buy the extras anyway, the plan can still come out ahead.

Who owns Hello Vet Garston?
We have no record of Hello Vet Garston belonging to a big group, so it is listed as independent. Every practice now has to say who owns it on its website and at the door.
About these prices: each figure is as published on the practice's own website on the date shown, VAT included where the practice says so, for the size of pet and the inclusions stated. Practices now have to publish a standard price list and keep it current (the rules), but the price you pay depends on your pet, so confirm with the practice before you book. Spotted a mistake? Tell us and we will re-check the source within two working days.
