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

Alerted me when my dog was rehomed 3 months ago in a difference area turned up at thr vets 3 months later been dumped they were amazing looked after her til I got to collect her

Exceptional care at this vet! The staff are friendly, compassionate, and thorough. They always take time to explain treatments. Highly recommend for anyone looking for top-quality veterinary care. You get what you pay for here!

I found them very caring when I had to have my poor Tia, a loving Staffordshire terrier put to sleep . They were so kind and gentle with her

These guys are amazing. My dog and I were attacked recently and they made room in their schedule for an emergency appointment. The vet on call knew exactly what they were doing and after inspecting her wounds said she needed to be referred to their larger practice. By the time I had got there they were expecting me and accepted my pup strait away. Minor operation later she's now back to herself Thank you guys!

Lovely vets Laura, Kristy and the other members of staff are always very welcoming and show a real interest and care.

Great practice, easy to get appointments and always seen in a timely manner. Vets and staff are kind and caring and make a fuss over my elderly cat, so she likes them very much.

Hird’s are second to none. They looked after my beautiful boy, Barclay throughout his life including a major operation. And they were there at the very end at our home. I can not recommend them highly enough. Every single member of staff I’ve had the privilege of dealing with has been highly professional, sensitive and with a genuine love of animals!

Brilliant service!!! my original vets could not fit my lame cat in till next week bit hirds did, I've always rated highly their equine side as my horse is under their care, and I now recommend their small animal service too thankyou guys and girls x

This place!! I dont have enough praise for these guys. My dog Frank was in there more then he was out. He loved going here, me not so much. But the love, attention and care he got from every vet he saw there was amazing. It was hard to see him go but knowing he'd been cared for so much by this vets helped heal a little. The receptionist we're also as amazing. Getting him in as soon as possible. I'll always be thankful.

what an amazing practice and vets. The first visit today with Shep. Cheryl was very thorough and very professional soon putting our dog and ourselves at ease - what a practice! - well done. Thoroughly recommend this vets. Thank you

Absolutely outstanding service. Myles spent so much time ensuring my dogs health certificates for overseas travel were prepared accurately, ensuring we had everything we needed. We are all currently enjoying the sun in Spain for the winter. Thanks Myles, extremely grateful for your time and effort

So caring with our beautiful boy Bane,we lost our boy but their compassion and care made a heartbreaking decision more bearable.Thank you all so much .

Visited today, which was not a happy visit but the care we received in the practice was brilliant. Our young cat was brought in after being hit by a car. He was seriously injured. All of the staff who saw us were so kind and understanding, there was one lady (who's name I did not get) who talked us through everything, gave us all of our options, answered all of our questions and gave us time with our cat. We unfortunately ended up having his put to sleep, which was heartbreaking, however the treatment given to our cat and the care they showed us was great-we really appreciated it.

Great staff friendly and informative. Also they will put you at ease. Lovely people and place

The staff at this surgery treat your pet as though it was their own. I have received the most wonderful care for my 5 dogs and 1 cat over the last 8 years and yes I have used 2 other vets previously in Halifax. The receptionists are very helpful and especially good when you are struggling with a poorly animal. I had to have one of my Great danes put to sleep recently after a 3 year battle with epilepsy and wobblers, the staff are amazing and the treatment standards for your pets is outstanding.An update this surgery is the best I have moved 8 miles away and still travel to this surgery all of the staff are outstanding.

The staff here are absolute Angels. Genuine care and compassion shines through them all, we are so grateful for the care you have show Bruno, Thank you x

Great staff and half the price price of other local pets

We’ve been using Donaldson’s vets Sowerby Bridge for over twenty years (from when it’s was previously Prospect Vets), and wouldn’t take our animals anywhere else. The staff are friendly, helpful and when ‘that’ time comes with pets, extremely caring and compassionate. Since Donaldson’s took over the practice, the level of care and personal touch has stayed the same, as many of the staff remained. We’ve also used the Donaldson’s main vet centre in Almondbury, where the service is just as good, despite us not being on first name terms with the staff there. Having our animals insured by Pet Plan takes away much of the stress of ownership as Donaldson’s are happy to deal directly with the insurers, on our behalf, with the bigger bills - of which there have been many over the years! Excellent vets.

Lisa the nurse at Donaldson Vets Sowerby Bridge was outstanding. I needed advice about my 15 year old dog who was dying at home. Even though I wasn't registered with this practice, I just needed guidance and advice from a professional. Lisa without hesitation assisted me and was very knowledgeable and reassuring and gave me the answers I needed to my questions. Lisa is a truly caring person and absolutely a credit to the Veterinary trade. Thankyou so much Lisa and all the best for the future. Jason
