In 2005 The Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) set out voluntary guidelines for veterinary practices to work under, including patient care and facitilties, emergency cover, practice protocols and operating procedures. These have been designed so owners could be assured that their pet is receiving the highest standards of veterinary care.

Beech House Veterinary Centre was already graded as a British Small Animal Veterinary Association Approved practice in 2005 so automatically became Accredied to the RCVS as a Tier 2 practice. In February 2010 Beech House Hersham underwent extensive inspections to have this RCVS Accreditation confirmed and extended.  We are proud to announce that we were again awarded RCVS Accreditation as a Tier 2 Practice. In addition our branch practices in Cobham, Shepperton and Thames Ditton were inspected, and all three were awarded RCVS Accredited Tier 1 Practice status.

This scheme remains voluntary but we are very pleased to be a part of something that ensures the safest, kindest and highest standards of animal health and welfare.
