Coastway Veterinary Group’s Lewes clinic is part of the Coastway Veterinary Group and is led by clinical director Paul Lawrence. Based on the website, it’s set up for routine care (such as booster vaccinations) alongside in-house dental and surgical work, supported by an operating theatre plus diagnostic and laboratory equipment. Reviews repeatedly mention clear, straight-talking explanations (often named around vet Karen Scott), long-term management of “multiple and complex issues” across several dogs, and thoughtful end-of-life support—including being talked through euthanasia, being encouraged to take a pet home for 24 hours to say goodbye, and receiving a personal condolence card afterwards.

T W Couzens is described in multiple reviews as a holistic veterinary practice, with an emphasis on diet changes, “natural products,” and alternative therapies alongside clinical care.

Several owners also note a consultation style that includes taking time to explain what’s happening, plus follow-up support like reading materials and email guidance.
