About Us

We are a two-site practice, with our main branch in Boston Spa, a picturesque village near Wetherby, and a second purpose-built branch surgery in Garforth, near Leeds. We are well equipped, with in-house laboratories, digital x-ray (including dental x-ray at our Garforth branch), endoscopy, laparoscopy, ultrasound, multi-parameter monitors and MLS laser. We strive to provide top quality patient care, and this is reflected in the loyalty of our clients, many of whom have been with the practice for generations.
We currently have a friendly and supportive team of 8 Veterinary Surgeons and 6 Registered Veterinary Nurses who are all looking forward to meeting the new member of the team. We have a certificate holder in small animal surgery and several of our other vets and nurses are working towards certificates too. We are also a nurse training practice.
