Every day means every day
On the Cortes side of Leiria, in Moinho Novo, there is a door that does not close. Our motto on Facebook says the well-being of your pet matters most every day — and we mean it literally: nights, Sundays, Christmas.
Owners tell us what they value: that we explain everything, that we answer the phone when a pet stays overnight, and that the costs are told up front. Vets, nurses and assistants take turns so someone is always here, and English is spoken.

A baby shrew
We found a crying baby animal on the road at 9 pm. We called over 15 vets — all said to leave it. The only one that answered was Hospital Veterinário das Cortes. We arrived after midnight and were received with enormous kindness.

A dog with head trauma
It was a public holiday. Given how serious it was, they gave my dog priority, kept him under watch and then overnight. I called several times during the night and always got an update. They saved my dog's life.

Emergency, not even our usual vet
I came in at around 11 pm. Dra. Mafalda was lovely with my dog, explained everything and medicated her in the best way. The next day Dra. Rita was a sweetheart. Thank you for caring about the animals, not just the €€.

Daily fluids while travelling
They were available on a Sunday to give my dog subcutaneous fluids when another hospital refused. I liked the premises a lot and we were very well received.

A Sphynx and a heart
They speak with me regularly by phone and message, without appointment they answer my many questions day after day, including overnight when it was an emergency. Bonus is they all speak english with me, and they are not overpriced.

A cat hit by a car
After treatment and several weeks of rest she recovered almost completely. The vets and assistants cared a lot and were completely transparent about the costs.
