Best Vets in West Yorkshire

Westwood Veterinary Practice is a general small-animal clinic that also operates as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility. Its website mentions emergency care (without detailing how it’s provided) and a preventative-care membership called Pet Health Club. In the latest reviews available, owners repeatedly describe vets and nurses explaining what they’re doing and why, listening closely to concerns, and taking time to settle anxious dogs during appointments—including owners who say they’ve used the practice for 10+ years.

Vita Referrals is a surgical referral clinic focused on small-animal orthopaedics and neurosurgery, with on-site advanced imaging (CT, digital X‑ray) and minimally invasive options (arthroscopy, fluoroscopy) listed on its website. Reviews describe a streamlined communication setup using an app for post-op questions and updates, plus structured discharge guidance (written instructions and a planned follow-up with X‑rays). Recent owners most often mention major orthopaedic procedures (total hip replacement and bilateral TPLO) and report frequent updates until collection the next day.

Donaldson’s Vets Ltd is an independently owned veterinary group (not a corporate chain) focused on small-animal care, with website-listed capabilities that go beyond basic consultations—such as CT scanning, ultrasound, cancer care, and keyhole surgery, alongside an animal rehabilitation centre and referral services (behaviour, dermatology). The site also describes emergency and overnight care, and clients mention being taken straight into a consult room in an urgent situation. Recent reviews include both strong positives (kind handling of an end-of-life visit; careful treatment of a bird) and a clear negative about consultation value/cost expectations and slip risk from an icy car park.

Swift Referrals appears to operate as a referral and emergency-capable clinic: one owner describes being referred by their usual vet after a road traffic accident, and another describes an emergency visit on Boxing Day for a dog that ate a plastic freezer bag. Reviews repeatedly highlight step-by-step updates during treatment, strong aftercare after discharge (including timely call-backs from a vet or nurse when questions came up), and quick re-check appointments when pets needed to return.

Donaldson's Vets Ltd describes itself as an independently owned veterinary group (per its website), offering “Total Care” for small animals and a broad in-house/referral-style service list that includes CT scanning, ultrasound, keyhole surgery, and an animal rehabilitation centre. It also states it provides emergency care including overnight care, and help for stray and injured cats and dogs. Recent reviews back up day-to-day care such as booster vaccinations, patient handling of a nervous dog, and treatment of a pet hen with bumblefoot (suggesting they may see some non-traditional pets, at least in certain cases).

Vets4Pets Keighley describes itself as a locally owned Vets4Pets practice, offering routine care through to diagnostic investigations and surgery, with facilities including an in-house lab, digital X‑ray and ultrasound. The website also highlights separate wards for cats, dogs and rabbits, plus an isolation unit and operating theatre. In the latest reviews available to us, owners most often mention prompt help and thorough check-ups, including one reviewer saying the team “saved my cat from disaster many times.”

Shearbridge Veterinary Centre offers 15‑minute vet consultations as standard and says it is fully equipped with the latest veterinary equipment. It’s also listed as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility and notes having a client car park. In the latest reviews available to us, multiple owners describe very long-term use (around 15–25 years) and mention pets being comfortable enough that a dog “looks forward to visiting the veterinary nurses.”

Donaldsons Vets Ltd is described on its website as an independently owned veterinary group that treats small animals only. The practice presents itself as set up for more involved diagnostics and referral-style work, listing CT scanning, ultrasound, key hole surgery, cancer care, dermatology referrals, and behaviour referral, alongside routine needs like microchipping and repeat prescriptions. In the latest reviews available, owners most often mention supportive handling of difficult situations and time spent discussing treatment options, including ongoing management of a cat’s lymphoma with steroids rather than immediate euthanasia.
