Pet Doctors Veterinary Hospital Newport is part of the Pet Doctors practice network and is set up for a broad mix of routine care and more complex work, with diagnostic imaging listed (including a CT scanner) and an in-house lab. The website information describes a small-animal practice that also sees a wide range of other species (including rabbits, reptiles/tortoises, and multiple types of birds). In the latest reviews, owners give specific examples of: - Rapid urgent care and monitoring, including an emergency appointment reported within 30 minutes, with overnight observation and updates “even at 1am”. - Thorough work-ups, including a detailed exam and blood tests that reportedly picked up an additional issue beyond the original injury. - Support around euthanasia and bereavement, with time given to say goodbye and the process explained step-by-step. There are also serious negative accounts alleging poor clinical decisions and disputed communication/aftercare, including one report of a £4,800 bill tied to a cat that later died, and another describing inconsistent updates about an injured wild bird.
