The Best Veterinary Cares in West Yorkshire, United Kingdom (2025)

We always have a wonderful experience when visiting the vet and we have to come once a month for our cat's injections. You can tell that the vet really cares about animals and the well being of them. He is highly knowledgeable and only prescribes what is really necessary. I wouldn't go to any other vet after bringing our cat to him.

We’ve been with Oakwood Vets for well over 15 years and they looked after both our cats that have now sadly passed away. We have nothing but praise for the team. Our cats received expert care for many years and we cannot thank them enough for the compassion shown when our eldest cat passed away earlier this year. I have recommended Oakwood Vets to others and will continue to do so.

Thank you so much!. We feel so lucky to have this vet!.... One of the few independent vets that remain despite the buldozer of corporate culture and the immoral prices that go with that. Lovely caring people and warm skillful service. Thanks again.

Been dealing with Oakwood Veterinary since 2001, never been disappointed. Dr. Kothari is very professional and very straightforward. He did a major surgery on my Husky in 2016 with which I was very satisfied. Very kind and very reasonably priced. I would recommend them to everyone if they're looking for a professional and reasonable veterinary help.

I Would like to thank all the staff at Colton for looking after Rolo our little dog, but a massive thank you to Sara. Absolutely outstanding. She’s such a caring vet and the dedication she has stands out a mile! We cannot thank you enough for everything you did for our little Rolo throughout the past 2 years . Sadly he didn’t make it to his last appointment with you but thank you for everything Sara.

The staff are always friendly and helpful. We love our visits and feel confident our dog Ezzy is well cared for .

I’ve had a great experience today for my first visit to Vets4Pets. I phoned up prior to discuss costs and the monthly plan, and Emily was so helpful. She was very informative and was very patient with all of my questions and queries. Upon my visit I saw Emily and again she was extremely informative and very nice to talk to. The Vet I saw (I’m not sure what his name is but he was young) was very nice, polite, gentle with my kitten and really informative again. A brilliant experience for me and my kitten, both as newbies to Vets!

I have my own doggy daycare and boarding business and every time I have had to use this practice I have been impressed with all of the staff. My own dog has had to come a lot recently and the nurses are lovely with him. They are always so friendly and helpful, both on the phone and in person. The vet David is excellent! He always goes out of his way to explain everything clearly, and I have complete faith in him, which is not something I have ever been able to say about any other vet. He is the right combination of friendly and professional, and I think that is so important when you are an owner, and trusting your pet into the care of someone. When he operated on my dog Bruno recently, the wound healed really well, so clearly he's a good surgeon as well! Bruno and I actually look forward to our visits to the vets now, which is amazing. A vets practice is only ever as good as it's staff, and they are fantastic here.

Lovely, friendly staff. The receptionist are great and helpful as well as the vets who are very knowledgeable in rabbit care- (hard to come by for rabbits) I would highly recommend this vets. When Monty has his injections or checkup or even operation. They always make sure to fully check him over regardless, and inform us of how he is getting on. I can’t fault the vets here and we are glad we signed up.

Can’t recommend this vet enough. After using beechwood vets which were a total rip off and unfriendly staff we moved my dog to this vets from a recommendation. My dog is very anxious about attending the vets and the vets and staff here are very friendly and have the animals best interests at heart. We took my dog as he had a lump on his chin the vet took a look at it and said it was likely a piece of bone that had grown out and there was no point doing a biopsy as with my dog been anxious he would need sedating- many vets would have said to do the biopsy to get extra money! The best part of all the vets didn’t even charge us for this consultation! That is how you know the vets are good and caring about animals and not out to rip you off!

This is purely the best vets in town. They look after my elderly rag doll Valentino, who had a bad experience at a previous vets. They go the extra mile for him and have kept notes even down to scent cats love and are sure to have it on there hands when they see him. They are so caring and patient with him. I have also just adapted a dog that I found dancing in the traffic, they helped me with checking him over and what to do. They now have him on their records and have welcomed him with open arms that he loves to see them. He is all chipped vaccinated n ready to love life. Thank you all at Westwood Vets, Garforth. You are all amazing.

Amazing practice with caring staff. I have been using them for 8 years and really appreciate their excellent care of my pets. The petplan offered means that costs can be budgeted each month easily.

This is the best vet in Selby by far. Saved are dog other vets said euthanize him. This vet gave him three good years. He's a brilliant vet with a different way of dealing with your pet. Thanks. **

As we are new customers the vet took his time to help my American Bulldog feel comfortable. Listened to what I said and gave me plenty of advice without the usual large bills. Apollo also loved all the treats he was given

If I could give this place more than 5 stars I would, they’ve looked after both our dogs (Ted and Albert) with so much care and passion. Especially recently when Albert decided to chew on some tablets. He got really poorly and his kidneys were failing, they worked so hard on him and he’s made a full recovery. I couldn’t thank them enough for how they were with him and us.

Without a doubt, the best and most caring vet I've ever met. Vetcare Selby provides an absolutely first class personal service. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Mauro and his team. A very big personal Thank You for looking after and providing first rate care to my beloved Lucy and Ida.

Excellent vets amazing and helpful staff, highly recommended. I bring my dog Boux here and could not imagine using any other vets as they are so good with her.

I recently switched my French Bulldog to Leeds Veterinary Centre in Crossgates. My dog had surgery and I felt that James, Vanessa and all the team really do care. I was given advice and constantly updated. excellent service. Highly recommended, Thank you Leeds Veterinary Clinic

Incredible place and professionals. Highly recommend! Vets really care about your pet, provide detailed explanations and there is no rush whatsoever on the consult. Place is clean and organised with affordable prices. Big thanks for Dr. Katherine for looking after our Sukie and Splodge

I have got to know this wonderful vets over the last few months as the charity I foster cats with use them. I absolutely cannot fault them, whether an injection, check over, microchip or major operation every single member of staff is polite and friendly. They clearly care a lot about animals and treat each pet with compassion and love. No question or query is ever too much trouble for them and they have helped put my mind at rest as a new cat fosterer. When my plan ends with the vet I use for my own cats comes to an end later in the year, I want to move them to LVC as I know they will be in excellent hands.

I visited this vets yesterday with my new kitten Rodger, the reception team were very lovely and friendly which made us feel super welcome. The interior of the vets was clean and fresh. Also the vet we saw was so lovely with him and gave him lots of love! 100% recommend this vets and so glad we chose this practice

A great experience for my first time at the vets with my kitten. The reception staff were warm and welcoming and the vet was super nice and friendly she handled my kitten very well who was very sassy and naughty. All in all a great place and super easy and convenient.

Always amazing with our Bailey who's a 14 week old miniature dachshund. He doesn't get nervous visiting and they always take good care of him every time we visit! Always quick to see you and easy enough to book appointments. Managed to get one this morning by calling up at 8.30am to see if there were any appointments. Managed to get one at 10am which was amazing. Poor Bailey's anal glands were full and needed to be expressed but the vets took very good care of him.

Sad occasion. Our 15 year old cat had to go to sleep. The practice staff were very sympathetic and understanding as they have always been over the years we have been coming here. Would recommend 100 per cent!

Been using this surgery from the day it opened. The staff in the reception are brilliant, always pleasant and helpful, nothing is a problem for them. Also the Vets are very good, they are kind and care about your pets, they explain everything to you about your pets illness and do everything they can to help. I can recommend them to anyone needing treatment for there pets

Palmer and Duncan vets have always been very efficient and informative in dealing with our dog Willow a working stock retriever and Sooty and Mittens the young cats. Mittens they saved when she had emergency major surgery after she swallowed a length of sewing cotton that got stuck in her gut. All the staff are very friendly and bubbly. When your pet needs extra care they were good to refer to another practitioner. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

My beloved dog, Max, was only registered at Palmer and Duncan a short time before we had to say goodbye to him on Friday evening, but the patience, care and compassion shown by all staff we met during that time was outstanding. Thank you so much for making such a difficult time that little bit easier for us. I would highly recommend this practice to anyone in Ossett with a pet.

The staff at this veterinary practice have been fantastic, not in only caring for my dogs, but ensuing a dignified and peaceful end to one of my dogs life. The showed compassion, empathy and love for both myself and my dog in her last moments. I will be forever grateful to them, thank you does not cut it.

I cannot thank serenity vets services enough. My fur baby of almost 17 years passed over rainbow bridge on Friday 17th January 2025 and the empathy and compassion that Vicky showed was second to none. She explained everything about what would happen and nothing was rushed, it was all in our time. As with most pet owners that have to euthanise their beloved pet I was guilt ridden but she even said she thought it was the right time. I cannot put into words all the things I want to say but if anyone ever asked me for recommendations I would say 100% these Thank you for making the most horrible decision and situation bearable

James Heriot would be Proud of this team. I can't Thank you enough for all your Help Support and Speed when we need you. It was heart breaking saying Goodbye to Storm. A card in the post a couple of days later WOW lovely Thank You

I just want to say thank you to all of the wonderful compassionate team at Serenity Vet Services. It’s taken me a while to write this but I’m finally coming to terms with the loss of my baby bear, Echo. Your lovely vet who made the process as nice as possible, then taking care of my boy afterwards, wrapping him in blankets, as well as the amazing caring team arranging his cremation and bringing his ashes safely back to us at home a few days later along with his footprints and a handwritten card which was so so thoughtful. I’m so grateful that your service exists because it made what was the worst day of our lives as peaceful for us as it could be. There’s not a day that goes by that I don’t think of him, it breaks me, but then I think about the way he got to drift peacefully and happy at home with no zero stress, and his sister(our other dog) got to be next to him and it could put her mind at ease knowing he hadn’t just left the house one day and left her. And the fact that now me and my family can think about that moment and not be distraught but instead be at peace because of your service, is ultimately such a beautiful thing. Thank you again.

I honestly cannot recommend Serenity Vets enough. Losing my 17 year old dog Norman has been heartbreaking for me and my family but Serenity Vets made the whole process as calm, dignified and comfortable for Norman as possible. The vet who came to our home to help Norm onto his last journey was kind and respectful and we didn't feel rushed in any way at all. We decided to have Norm individually cremated through the Vets and part of this meant they also brought Norm's ashes back to us, along with the blanket he was wrapped in when he passed away and also a lovely hand written card which was an unexpected kindness. I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping us to make sure Norm felt loved and safe in his final moments. Your professionalism and kindness will stay with me forever. Thank you Lucy

Paragon Vets especially Chris Linney has done an amazing job doing their magic on my pooch, she had big surgery to help her heart and although it’s a ongoing progress, I wouldn’t have her here today, if it wasn’t for Chris and his team. He has reassured me that she is doing well and what the next steps are and that they are happy with her progress. It’s a long journey.

We travelled almost 60 miles to be greeted by very friendly and welcoming staff. The vet was very knowledgeable and treat our dog with care. We left with the answers that we were looking for with regards to her illness. Would highly recommended this practice.

They took in our exceedingly poorly 4 year old dog. They were so caring, and understanding. Every day we had 2 updates, they were clear and understandable, and really did set our mind at ease. They were easy to contact when needed, and coming from Bolton, we were able to visit quite a way outside of their open hours. Very very happy with them... Our dog? 6 days in ICU, and now back home and recovering...!

My little dog is being looked after at Paragon Referrals with the Cardiology team. They have been absolutely amazing every time. I have tried several places before but this place is exceptional. I never feel alone during my little girls difficult journey as I know that she is in the best hands. I don't think that my little Tiffany would have made it this far without their input, continuous help and expertise. Thank you. I am very grateful to have found Paragon Referrals.
