Clinic Overview
Beth Newman is a small practice where reviews repeatedly describe hands-on, personal continuity of care—often contrasted with “corporate” vet experiences. The clinic appears set up to handle urgent problems quickly (multiple owners mention being fitted in at short notice), and to manage diagnostics and onward referral communication (one case specifically mentions X‑rays and results being forwarded to the pet’s usual vets/specialists). Owners also describe active follow-up after treatment, including follow-up calls/emails and return visits that “were never too much trouble.”

I honestly cannot thank Beth Newman and her team enough after a near disastrous event where our young Labrador dived over a bridge and into a rocky ravine below whilst on holiday on the island. The compassion and care shown was like nothing we have ever encountered with follow up calls,emails and return visits that were never too much trouble and all results,X-rays etc forwarded to our own vets and specialists without question. We feel like we have made new friends rather than just being a number like a lot of modern (corporate) vets. Thank you again for everything and Echo will certainly pop in for a visit upon any return we have to the island…Lee and Susan

Service was very good. Went above and beyond to help out at short notice. Definitely better than any vets I attend on the mainland.

Lovely practice, fitted in my dog at almost no notice while I was visiting family on the island. Beth was caring and thorough despite having a busy morning ahead. Highly recommended.

Super nice staff and Dr. Newman is great. We vacationed on Islay for a month and needed paper work done in order for Brown Bear to leave the UK and return to the states. She made this a really easy process for us. She even delivered the paperwork to our hotel. Thank you so much. Highly recommend.

A very good veterinary practice, helpful and experienced veterinary surgeon. She treats your dog very gently esp. if your poor fellow needs an injection, great consultation and service esp. in an emergency situation, so if you need a vet Mrs Newman should be your first choice.
