We've always used Hills Veterinary Surgery on Park Rd, Crouch End.  Excellent service and they don't try to fleece you.

We use Goddard Group the Bruce Grove Branch. Always been great in there (also one of the few in London that can treat reptiles).

I've always used Hills on Park Rd, Crouch End. Have always found them very compassionate and caring.

Hi all,

I have a cat with FIV which means although he is healthy in general, he is susceptible to struggling with things more regularly or more severely than other cats so it is quite expensive to keep him healthy. 

I've been taking him to Dragon Vets and have spent close to £1,000 there in the last 8 months or so, and I'm wondering if anyone would recommend other places on the basis that they simply might be cheaper. Dragon have done a good job and I think they have very skilled vets and staff, but it's adding up. 

I don't have insurance as FIV cats are extremely difficult to insure, premiums are high and the existing FIV condition means the majority of things simply aren't covered.

I would really welcome any advice on vets in the area you think might be cheaper (clearly I'm weighing cost versus quality of treatment), and also if anybody has recommendations on insuring FIV cats or advice on helping with costs, I'd appreciate that too!

Tim
