A New Chapter with Village Vets
We’re delighted to share that Riverforest Veterinary Centre is officially joining the Village Vets family.
This partnership allows us to bring even more resources and advanced veterinary care to benefit you and your pets, while keeping the trusted team and high standard of care you know and value.
Our experienced and dedicated team will continue caring for your pets with the same compassion and commitment as always, now supported by the wider Village Vets network to further enhance your pet’s health and wellbeing.
About Village Vets
Village Vets began in 1980, when Charles Cosgrave’s father, Karl who is a vet, took over a veterinary practice in Dunshaughlin, Co. Meath. Since then, the practice has grown into a family of clinics caring for pets across Meath, Dublin, and now Cork.
We understand how much your pets mean to you. They are part of the family. We are proud to work alongside experienced vets and nurses, many of whom have been with us for years and share the same passion, care, and compassion for animals.
It is a privilege to be trusted with your pet’s care, and we are committed to providing the very best advice and treatment at every stage of their life.
We look forward to welcoming you and your pet soon.
Charles Cosgrave
Veterinary Surgeon & owner of Village Vets
