Medivet Portland

Medivet Portland is part of the Medivet group. The practice advertises 15‑minute consultations and has in‑house imaging (X‑ray and ultrasound), plus home visits and pet travel paperwork (Animal Health Certificates). Reviewers most often describe routine preventive care (puppy/kitten vaccinations, 6‑month checks, annual injections) and note practical, specific touches like vets discussing dental home care (to reduce tartar build‑up) and giving treats during kitten vaccinations. Several reviews also mention support around end‑of‑life visits, with one client specifically thanking “Tina and the team” for making difficult goodbyes feel more manageable.
