We have always had brilliant service from Portside Vets, and recommend them to anyone we know looking for a good vet in the area. We have taken our two cats to Portside for a number of years now. When one of our cats had to have dental work, it was rather nerve wracking, but the team at Portside were absolutely excellent, reassuring. and caring.

We have been with this vet for a few years and have unfortunately lost a few pet along the way. Portside vets have always been caring and patient which has made the losses a bit better to handle. They give the pets the best care.

I recently got my ferrets castrated at Portside vets newhaven. Everyone was so lovely including the receptionists, vets and nurses. Beth the student nurse talked me through all the post op care and gave my boys both a bravery award. Pipkin and Pogo were very well looked after, I wish I lived closer as I would love to have Portside as my regular vets.

Portside Vets are a friendly & competent surgery. The receptionist's are very friendly and efficient. The vet's are caring, informative and competent. I was very happy with the service I have received each time I've been to the site and am pleased that I choose them for my kittens care.

Very understanding vets and great with our dogs. Usually able to book an appointment hassle free. Lunar even got a bravery award when they fixed her leg. Nice not to get huffed and tutted at which I've found with some other vets. Good to have a team of workers and receptionists that care for their customers just as much as the animals.
