Neighbourhood Vet – Vets in Gosport
Clinic Overview
Neighbourhood Vet is a veterinary practice that (based on client accounts) spends time on nervous or reactive dogs and is willing to problem-solve without automatically insisting on an in-person appointment. Reviews describe repeated “confidence-building” visits with treats and time to explore the consult room ahead of a planned castration, phone advice given instead of booking a consultation “just because,” and thoughtful, “dignified” support when it was time to say goodbye to a pet. The clinic is also listed as a veterinary nurse training facility.

We honestly could not rate our vets more. We trust them with our animals and they are treated as if they are their own. We highly recommend to anyone who wants a safe place for their animals to be looked after.

Best vet ever. Not only have they likely saved my dog Marshalls life, they are great in that they don't automatically say to bring him in because he has a problem. We've had a couple of times We've phoned for advise and they've provided great advise rather than bringing us in gor a consultation. Great staff from receptionist to vet! Definitely recommend!

It is with the heaviest of hearts that I write this review and as Raw as the passing of our boy is, writing this somehow helps. I just want to offer my sincere thanks to the ENTIRE TEAM at NHV Gosport from the veterinarians, nursing team and the reception/administrative staff. for the care and support they have shown us over the years. There knowledge, ability, understanding, compassion and most importantly genuine love for animals is OUTSTANDING. I can write that, not having visited just Once or Twice but countless times during my Boys Golden years. When the time came to say enoughs enough I could not have asked for a more thoughtful and dignified end despite the logistical means they had to go too to accommodate his temperament. This Team has the animals and owners best interests at the forefront of their minds and hearts and are fully aware that pet ownership can sometimes be financially demanding and they do do there very best to keep the inevitable costs to a minimum. NHV Gosport, again thankyou and keep doing what your doing as you as a practice REALLY HAVE GOT IT RIGHT.

Highly recommend Neighbourhood Vets, had nothing but positive experiences with them. One of my dogs had a bad experience at a different vet practice which left him very nervous and anxious of the vets. Hayley and Tiff were amazing to help build Kobe’s trust, we visited them a couple of times a week for a few weeks and they let us get Kobe comfortable with the team and the surroundings. They gave him treats and let him inspect the room where he had his appointments, by the time he was booked in for his castration he was happy to see all of the team and I had no anxiety leaving him there at all. They did everything to make Kobe and myself feel comfortable and cannot thank them enough! I highly recommend, especially if you have a nervous/reactive dog!

These guys are exceptional. I have never met more friendly veterinary surgery as this one. When my blind beautiful princess Bubba died of cancer they were the cheapest for the cremation and went above and beyond to make the whole process very endearing for me. I would highly recommend these vets and the receptionist team are also exceptional and very friendly.
