I recently changed veterinary clinics in Newbridge and I’m raging that I didn’t find this clinic sooner. Fantastic veterinary clinic with an amazing team. The staff are extremely friendly, professional, and take the time to explain everything clearly, which really helps put you at ease. Their focus is always on the wellbeing of your dog, and they go out of their way to create positive, calm experiences during visits(giving loads of pets and treats). It’s clear they genuinely care about both pets and owners. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone looking for compassionate and high-quality veterinary care.

Noirin has been looking after my family’s dogs as far back as 1993, an amazingly compassionate person. I now have Mac and Cheese under the care of Marie and couldn’t be more reassured by her with my new additions

I took my cat Elliott to Cottage Vet Clinic for his castration and was incredibly impressed with the level of care he received. The whole experience was smooth, reassuring, and handled with great attention to detail. The reception staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making the process smooth and stress-free. The vets and nurses were amazing, so gentle, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about animals. They treated Elliott with so much respect and compassion, which really put me at ease. The clinic itself is spotless, well-organized, and has a calm, professional atmosphere. You can tell that everything is done to the highest standard. Elliott’s recovery has been fantastic, and I truly believe that’s thanks to the expert care he received here. I highly recommend Vet Cottage Clinic to anyone looking for top-quality veterinary care. Every part of our experience was perfect. I’m very grateful to the team for taking such good care of Elliott!

Always such a caring practice and have been going there with Princess for 8 years and Doyler who died eight years ago. Noreen is so good and thorough with the animals as are any of the vets we have dealt with in Cottage Veterinary Clinic. Couldn’t recommend them highly enough. Desk staff are also very pleasant to deal with so all round excellent.

I have had my pets at Cottage Vets for nearly 5 years and could never fault them. They are all lovely and genuinely want to care for your pets. They guide and explain everything really clearly. Had the unfortunate case where we had to put one of our dogs down. Everyone was genuinely upset.

Brought Brody to you guys recently and as always, received the highest professional standards. Martha in reception is always so bubbly and friendly, Norine, ( sorry about the spelling error), the Vet, was so so patient with Brody, as he has an aversion to going to the Vet. She made him relax and his treatment went well. Thanks again for all that you do, for all the animals. Kind regards from Adrienne Jenkins (...and Brody)
