No vet listed in Colinton yet.

A vet provides medical care for your pets - vaccinations, health checks, treatment for illness and injury and routine procedures like neutering and microchipping.

Whether you visit a local surgery or have a vet come to your home, finding someone your animals are comfortable with makes every visit easier.

Check they are registered with the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) and ask about out-of-hours emergency cover before you need it.

Colinton is a former village on the Water of Leith in south-west Edinburgh, now a leafy suburb that retains a strong village identity.

The Dell - the wooded gorge of the Water of Leith through Colinton - is one of Edinburgh's most beautiful natural spaces, with a tunnel, old mills and the walkway running through it.

Robert Louis Stevenson spent childhood holidays at Colinton Manse and his connection to the village is celebrated with literary references throughout.

Colinton has a village centre with a church, local shops and a community feel and is within easy reach of the Pentland Hills and the city bypass.

Edinburgh is Scotland's capital city and one of the most recognisable cities in the world, built across a series of volcanic hills on the southern shore of the Firth of Forth.

The Old Town and New Town, together a UNESCO World Heritage Site, form the historic core - but the city stretches far beyond them, taking in dozens of distinct neighbourhoods, suburbs and villages absorbed over centuries of growth.

From the Georgian terraces of the New Town to the seaside promenade at Portobello, the leafy avenues of Morningside to the waterfront regeneration at Granton, each part of Edinburgh has its own character and community.

The city is a centre for finance, technology, higher education and the arts - the Edinburgh Festival Fringe is the largest arts festival in the world and the city's universities attract students and researchers from across the globe.

Edinburgh's transport network includes a tram line, an extensive bus system, two mainline railway stations and an international airport, connecting its neighbourhoods to each other and to the rest of Scotland and beyond.
