We have been recognised at the BestUkVets Awards 2026, taking home Best Vets in Buckinghamshire for a 6th consecutive year and coming in the Top 25 of practices in the UK.
The award places us among the veterinary teams most highly praised by their own clients, recognising the care, compassion and service they provide every day.
The award, presented on Thursday 18th June at Thames Rowing Club in Putney, during a warm and joyful celebration that brought together veterinary teams from across the UK and Ireland. The positive atmosphere gave teams the chance to celebrate their achievements, share stores and recognise the care provided by colleagues throughout the profession.
A record total of more than 16,000 qualifying reviews were received for this year’s award. Each review was left by a pet owner who wanted to recognise the care, service and support provided by their veterinary team.
The BestUKVets Awards are organised by VetHelpDirect and are determined entirely by the number of verified four and five star reviews left by clients on VetHelpDirect.com and Any UK Vet. Unlike awards decided by a judging panel, the results are based on the experiences of pet owners and provide a direct reflection of the trust they place in their veterinary practice.
The whole team was exceptionally proud to receive the awards as we always try our very best to ensure the level of service provided to our clients and their pets is of the highest level.
Susie Samuel, CEO of VetHelpDirect said, BestUKVets is all about recognising veterinary teams through the voices of their clients. This was a record year, with more than 16,000 reviews and it was wondrful to bring teams from across the UK and Ireland together for such a positive celebration. We are delighted to recognise Windmill Veterinary Centre as the Best in Buckinghamshire and in the Top 25 of practices in the UK. Every review reflects the difference the team has made to a pet owner and their animal.
