Finding a vet in Prague

Prague has several hundred small-animal practices. There is no complete official open dataset of them, so the best starting point is the Chamber of Veterinary Surgeons' own directory, which lists licensed vets who have agreed to be listed.

Where to search

• Komora veterinárních lékařů ČR (the official chamber) — directory of licensed vets at vetkom.cz/veterinari. The most trustworthy source, but not every practice chooses to appear.
• Veterina.cz — a commercial directory with contacts and opening hours. Useful for comparing, but not an official source; check details with the clinic.
• Mapy.com — search 'veterinář' to see practices near you and get directions.
• Many central and larger clinics have English-speaking vets; ask when you call.
