I saw some other posts regarding veterinary centres in countries, so I thought I'd do one for the UK that are qualified to deal with hamsters. I will keep this updated whenever I find others!

Re: Hamster Vets in the UK
This is great! I had the UK on the Worldwide thread, because I only had one list but I was hoping more people would post vets they knew so we could expand the threads.

Re: Hamster Vets in the UK
Anne Nelson vets in Croydon (South London) have an exotic vet (Michael Rowland) a couple of days a week. I haven't been there myself yet but know some people who go there with small rodents.
CJ Hall in East Sheen (SW London) are a popular dedicated exotics practice.
A rescue near me recommends Kings Road vets in Biggin Hill (SE London/Kent), specifically a vet named Rikus.
Finally, I've heard really good things about Trinity Vets in Maidstone (Kent).
