At Adelaide we provide professional care for precious paws, and we have been doing since 1985. Originally founded in Lowford before moving to our current site in Bursledon in 1988, we pride ourselves on caring for your pets as if they are our own. We have five experienced small animal vets aided by a team of nurses and receptionists dedicated to looking after your pets.
Since our practice records became computerised in 1992 we have cared for over 30,000 individual pets. We provide all of the services needed to keep your pet fit and well, including ultrasound, digital x-rays and a modern surgery theatre. Where possible we aim to allow for continuity of care, ensuring your pet is treated by a friendly, familiar face.

I brought my bulldog Jewell in to see Scott on 3rd November after having repeatedly bad experiences at another vet. I was squeezed in on the same day that I called, which was also incredible – thank you to the receptionist (I believe her name was Michelle) who made this happen.
After being somewhat “fobbed off” by the previous veterinary practice, Scott listened to me and did thorough tests, and agreed that she needed antibiotics as she clearly had an ear infection, and more than just a “dry eye”.
The comparison between the other practice (being made to wait outside, having my questions

The staff are the best part of the business, they are absolutely brilliant! The reception staff are really friendly and helpful, I've never had any problems making appointments or ordering medications for my animals. The veterinary staff are wonderful too, they are great with the animals and the owners. I had to have my cat put down last year and Amy was fantastic, really professional but so kind as well.

My mother has recently passed away and I am now looking after her beautiful cats. However, I have never come across such hard, uncaring receptionists. Two of them including the practice manager, really know how to be rude and hurtful. Previously I had to endure an uncaring receptionist shouting across the room at me publicly, about my Mothers death details. I tried again to day to speak with a receptionist but again was subjected to such rudeness I actually ended up crying on the phone. I urge others to not deal with this business. This is a shame as Miguel is an exceptional vet who has helped

If you love your pets, you will be doing them and yourself a favour using this vet.
They love your pets just as much as you do.
I refuse to use another vet. My dogs NEVER got worried, in fact they where happy to just walk in without us just the vet. Tail wagging, happy dogs.
Unfortunately our marley had cancer. He was put to sleep in our car due to the fact he couldn't move. The vet didn't want to move him and hurt him.
Our sammy was an old boy. It was his time to sleep. They made him feel relaxed, he didn't feel worried at all.
We now take our mack to this vet, they love to see him and guess

We have been a client of Adelaide vets for the last 15 years. Recently we had to bring our much loved Fudge the cat in, with a life threatening illness. The entire team were truly professional as ever, and thanks to their professionalism and expertise, our Fudge will live on to tell the tale! Thank you Adelaide, we would highly recommend to everyone. Thank you for the bottom of our hearts.
