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

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

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. **

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 service. Puppy enjoyed the visit as much as we did and didn't feel a thing. Good advice about puppy care and insurance. Will recommend

It has taken me weeks to write this review because I am devastated by the loss of my Lottie. The time had come to make that awful decision that all pet owners dread. I was told about Charlotte and her home euthanasia service by my own vet and I am just so grateful. Charlotte was wonderful. She handled Lottie so gently, showed my husband and myself such kindness and compassion. She made such a sad situation bearable and I can't thank her enough. I would recommend Charlotte to anyone in the same situation as myself. She took control and organised everything including Lottie's cremation. I will be forever grateful.

We cannot express enough how grateful our family is for the incredible support and assistance Charlotte provided during such a difficult and emotional time. Your presence and genuine care made a world of difference not only for our beloved Max but for all of us. From the moment you stepped into our home, it was evident that you truly understood the deep bond we had with Max. Your attentiveness and thoughtfulness throughout the entire process was remarkable. Your compassionate demeanor helped alleviate some of the pain and grief we were experiencing, and we sincerely appreciate the warmth and kindness you showed us. The special touches you added to commemorate Max's life were beyond what we could have imagined. The delicate paw and nose prints, as well as his beautiful curly coat, are cherished keepsakes that will forever remind us of our beloved Max. Charlotte, your dedication to ensuring Max's crossing was as peaceful and dignified as possible was evident in every detail. Your care and support went above and beyond what we expected, and we are forever grateful for the role you played during this challenging time. Max's passing was eased because of your presence, and for that, we will be eternally thankful. With heartfelt appreciation and warmest regards Max's family 💛

Charlotte made one of the most difficult decisions and experiences we’ve ever had to face much more bearable. We had to say goodbye to our 15 year old springer, Maddie, who was so loved by all in the family. Charlotte was kind, compassionate, responsive and gave us ample time to say goodbye in the most peaceful way possible. Charlotte went above and beyond with some extra little keep sakes that will be cherished forever. Thank you so much. Josh, Chrissy & Danielle

Charlotte was very kind, considerate and respectful, she explained the whole procedure, gave us time to say our final goodbyes. She sent us a card with our dogs paw print and nose print on which so thoughtful. We requested an individual cremation and she returned the ashes to us with some beautiful little memories including some fur in a lovely bottle. We have another old dog and when her time comes I will most definitely use Charlotte's services again.

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.

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

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.

Excellent vets with great service from both the vet and admin team. Have been my vet of choice for 3 dogs now stretching back over nearly 20 years. Building is easy to reach, sharing an access road with the car wash, but with dedicated parking and a small grass area at the front. Ramp access to the front door is easy to manage for the mobility impared. Inside is clean, bright and airy, with toilets available and a small waiting area, including an area especially for those with smaller pets that is marked as a dog-free zone. Reception / admin staff are polite and helpful, greeting customers warmly and happy to say hello to pets and try to put them at ease. I've never had to wait more than a minute or two before being called into the examination rooms. All of the vets I've seen are equally nice, friendly and cheerful, and empathic towards the animals they're treating. The examination rooms are 'compact', but big enough for the job at hand, clean and tidy. Whenever I've taken my dogs in, the vet has always taken the time to try and treat them as kindly as possible, making sure there's a little treat to be had for each injection taken or for being poked and prodded - but it's little things like letting the dog take a moment to sniff the stethescope before they're checked over that I think makes going to the vet a non-traumatic experience for them. Vets have always been happy to discuss treatment options with me and make recommendations for their care, and the prices seem fair and reasonable in my experience. Strongly recommend.

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.

My number one choice for pet care. The surgery is always clean bright and welcoming nothing is too much trouble for all the staff. I particularly like the separation of waiting area for cats and dogs - which shows they care how their clients are waiting without getting stressed. My Howie is extremely vocal even without seeing any other animals. All the vets are happy to answer questions & nothing is too much trouble. They care about our pets as if they belonged to them.. And that’s a big plus for me. Wouldn’t go anywhere else, 100% pet friendly & good price point. Also situated in an accessible area with available free parking. Thanks to all at Westwood

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.

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.

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...!

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.

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.

Our beautiful Puka has been spayed in Oakwood veterinary surgery. I think it was the best decision we made to bring her exactly to this vet clinic and we was travelling from ls12 area because clinic was recommended to me. I was impressed with that care what they was given to each animal there. Thank you to Oakwood Team for this great experience I felt calm from surgery day to our recovery period at home .

"I take my dog, Taffy, to Beechwood Vets in Headingley for her annual vaccinations and health checks. The staff are always incredibly thorough, carefully checking everything and explaining any health concerns clearly. When Taffy needed surgery, they gave us an appointment straight away. Today, she had her surgery, and I couldn’t be more impressed. The reception staff and the entire team were so kind, helpful, and understanding. A particularly lovely lady at reception was so compassionate when I was worried and crying—she took the time to calm me down and reassure me, which meant so much. Their calm and caring attitude made Taffy feel at ease too. The surgery went smoothly, and I’m so grateful for the excellent care they provided. Thank you to everyone at Beechwood-headingley surgery – you’re truly amazing!"

We came in today and were treated with utmost friendliness, professionalism and Fran (our chihuahua) was treated successfully and kindly. Caterina proved to be knowledgeable and super funny. What a fantastic team. Kat is a lovely front of the house.

I’ve been coming to the Headingley Beechwood Vets since it opened with my cat and they are brilliant with her. She’s usually nervous at the vets but the staff all set her at ease, let her adjust and she gives her blood sample with no bother now. Highly recommend this vets!

Brought my 2 kittens in on Thursday for neutering and spaying and I cannot praise the staff enough. From the reception staff to the surgeon and everyone inbetween we were made to feel cared for and welcome. You can see they love what they do and I was more than happy to leave my babies in their expert care. Thank you from Kit & Kat x

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.

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 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

Great vets. Been going with our dog since he was a puppy. He’s now 14. Would highly recommend

Very friendly and caring. Managed to fit my dog in for an appppointment within an hour of calling. Very attentive and thoughtful. The vet was exceptional at putting my dog at ease and very thorough with her examination. She even gave my dog a treat afterwards. I would highly recommend.

Many thanks to Raj & Lynn for their compassion & care with helping us through putting our old border terrier to sleep. They really did make it easier for us, nothing was too much trouble. Lynn even teared up, and she had never met our dog before. What a lovely practice.

Brought my cat here for surgery, we are registered with a different branch but managed to get an app with any. This branch had the earliest. Was quiet and very clean. There is no carpark but plenty of main road parking. Receptionist was very welcoming and the main vet was really lovely too. Gave great aftercare advice and booked me a follow up app at the branch I'm registered too for ease. Great service!
