Best Vets in Waterlooville – Complete Local Guide

Waterlooville Vets4Pets Ltd is part of the Vets4Pets group and is based inside a Pets at Home store. The website describes a practice set up for diagnostics and surgery, with an in-house lab, hospital ward, isolation unit and operating theatre, plus equipment including X-ray and ultrasound. Recent reviews repeatedly describe strong communication and follow-up (including staff phoning after a hospital visit, and regular updates during a dental procedure), and the practice being able to fit in urgent issues quickly (same-day/short-notice appointments mentioned for a suspected fracture and a post-castration wound concern). There is also a conflicting note from one reviewer reporting rude reception and delays/chasing for medication and results.

St Peter’s Vets Ltd is a long-established small-animal practice (the website says it’s been providing pet care for over 60 years) with in-house diagnostics and minimally invasive options such as laparoscopic/key-hole surgery and endoscopy. The practice states it provides a 24-hour emergency service, 365 days a year. Recent reviews focus on clear, practical experiences: vets “take time to listen and offer advice,” appointments are described as well organised and thorough, and multiple long-term clients mention sticking with the practice for decades. Out-of-hours support is specifically called out as “brilliant” by one reviewer.

Downland Veterinary Group has been operating since 1946 and is listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. Recent reviews describe appointments being available quickly (including for a sick rabbit), thorough examinations with diagnosis and medication, and follow-up/ongoing aftercare after surgery. Owners also mention seeing the same vet regularly, which helps with continuity for pets that need ongoing care.

Harbour Veterinary Group – Waterlooville is part of the Harbour Veterinary Group. The group website describes a small‑animal hospital set up for routine care (check‑ups, vaccinations, parasite control) as well as dentistry, surgery and diagnostics (including in‑house lab work and imaging such as X‑ray and ultrasound), with 24‑hour emergency and out‑of‑hours cover provided via MiNightVet. From the latest reviews available to us, owners most often mention: - Thorough routine appointments (a “6 monthly checkup” described as very thorough). - Emergency care resulting in medical treatment and recovery (one dog with blood in stool/vomiting treated with antibiotics and prebiotics and improved over three days). - Mixed experiences with communication and handling: some praise specific staff, while others describe long waits, difficulty getting through, and dissatisfaction with complaint handling.

Purbrook Veterinary Practice Ltd is a small-animal vet practice that owners use for routine care (check-ups, puppy vaccinations, parasite control) as well as procedures (one review mentions an upcoming leg operation, and another describes stitches after an injury). Recent reviews repeatedly mention end-of-life support such as kindness during euthanasia appointments and sending condolence cards (one with a paw print). Access seems to vary: one owner describes being offered a same-day visit for a Cytopoint injection when appointments were tight, while another reports being told the practice was “too busy” to help with euthanasia and had to go elsewhere.
