Welcome to Dacre House

We are an independent, family-friendly practice offering high quality, reasonably priced, veterinary care for pets and their owners in and around Tunbridge Wells.

Nominated for the Petplan 2011 Veterinary Practice of the Year Award Every year, Petplan offers a range of veterinary awards, including 'Vet of the year' and 'Nurse of the year'. We are proud to have been nominated for 'Practice of the year' in 2011. To find out more, visit the Petplan website.

Celebrating our 25th anniversary! Dacre House Veterinary Clinic was founded by Chris & Suzanne Murray in 1986. Today the clinic has grown to include 6 vets, 5 members of nursing staff, 3 receptionists and a practice manager.

Registered Veterinary Nurse Training Practice As part of our commitment to education and animal care we are a registered Veterinary Nurse Training Practice. We work alongside Hadlow College to train Veterinary Nurses. This means we must meet stricter standards of care than some other practices - our facilities and protocols are inspected annually by the College.

Our practice is proud to be a member of the International Society of Feline Medicine.

We have a fully-equipped clinic - 2 operating theatres, x-ray and ultrasonography facilities, in-house laboratory, ECG, blood pressure monitoring equipment and more. We carry out work for a number of charities including Cats Protection, Streetkatz Rescue, Dogs Trust, Greyhound Rescue West of England, RAIN, the RSPCA and the PDSA. We are one of the only practices in the area to provide our own 24-hour emergency service.
