About Emergency Vets in Newbury
For pet owners needing urgent care, understanding which clinics offer emergency services is crucial.
In Newbury, five clinics provide emergency or out-of-hours care, ensuring that urgent medical needs for pets can be addressed promptly. These clinics are equipped to handle a variety of urgent situations, providing reassurance to pet owners that immediate care is available when needed. On the other hand, clinics that do not offer emergency services focus primarily on routine care, making them suitable for non-urgent visits like vaccinations and check-ups. This distinction impacts pet owners' choices, especially in cases where continuity of care during emergencies is a priority.
There are 5 veterinary clinics listed for emergency vets in Newbury.

The Berkshire Vet describes itself as an independent veterinary clinic with hospitalisation facilities, offering routine care, surgery and a 24/7 emergency service (as stated on its website). Reviews repeatedly mention a “meet and greet”/familiarisation approach for anxious pets, including taking appointments slowly with treats and lick mats, and also describe urgent problem-solving such as mild sedation to remove a fish hook and treatment for a cat’s upper respiratory tract disease that had spread to the sinuses. Several reviewers also highlight help with insurance claims and say the practice is transparent on pricing (without quoting specific fees).
