Updated January 2026

Clinic Overview

Dagenham Vets4Pets Ltd is part of the Vets4Pets network, and the practice website describes it as “locally owned.” It’s set up as a general practice with on-site diagnostics (in‑house lab, digital X‑ray and ultrasound), an operating theatre and an isolation unit. Out-of-hours emergency care is stated to be provided via another Vets4Pets practice.

Recent reviews include both routine and difficult cases: owners mention cat castrations/neutering, a kitten “quick check,” and end-of-life appointments (including behavioural euthanasia). Several owners praise kind, efficient staff and say they could get appointments when needed, while multiple recent 1‑star reviews describe serious problems with one vet’s manner (condescending/mocking, insensitive comments in a euthanasia context) and handling, plus frustration about slow acknowledgement of complaints.

From reviews, front-desk/reception and nursing staff are singled out positively by one owner as “very lovely,” and several reviewers describe staff as kind/understanding during routine procedures and first-time visits.

Multiple recent reviews also warn about a vet referred to as “Steve” / “Stefan Birza”, describing condescending or mocking communication, poor bedside manner during highly emotional appointments (including euthanasia), and (in one account) rough handling.

Reviews

Google rating: 4.4 stars from 479 reviews.

  • Smooth routine procedures and access: owners describe cat castration/neutering going well, and one review says appointments were available when needed.
  • Good support for nervous/new owners: one first-time cat owner says the team eased their concerns around an operation.
  • Serious complaints about one vet’s conduct: several 1‑star reviews describe a vet (“Steve”/“Stefan”) as condescending, mocking, or rolling eyes, with one alleging aggressive handling (pinching) and making the owner remove the cat from the carrier.
  • End-of-life and crisis communication: multiple reviews say compassion was lacking in euthanasia-related or urgent, highly emotional situations (e.g., one account quotes “well dogs kill cats, what did you expect”).
  • Complaint handling concerns: one reviewer reports waiting weeks for acknowledgement after reporting their experience, despite follow-ups.
