welcome to
Donaldson’s Vets are the only Independently owned Veterinary Group in Huddersfield.
That means that the practice is owned by many of the Vets who work in the practice. We care passionately about looking after your animals, be they a cat, dog, lizard or budgie. We pride ourselves on providing ‘Total Care’ for your pets and are here to help you with all aspects of pet ownership.
We combine truly cutting-edge training, facilities, equipment and premises with good old fashioned personal care.
The team at Donaldson’s Vets are available 24 hours-a-day to provide great customer service to you and top quality care to your animals.
At Donaldson’s Vets, we have always maintained our commitment to Independent Mixed Practice. Despite increasing specialisation and the continued acquisition of independent practices up and down the country by corporate consolidators, that remains our firm intention.
Central to maintaining that long term commitment is to ensure that we have strong leadership in each area of the business and so we are delighted to let you know that, as of 1st October 2021, the Donaldson’s Group has been restructured to ensure that “Donaldson’s Farm and Equine” is entirely focused on the needs of our farm and equine clients while “Donaldson’s Vets” is focused on the care of domestic animals.
Please be reassured that your access to all of our services will be unaltered.
The new model ensures the continued vibrancy of both the small animal and large animal sides of the Donaldson’s Group and ensures that you continue to access the high quality Veterinary care you require while we can maintain the independence we all value.
What our clients say about us…
We have experienced nothing less than incredible care and compassion and a service second to none over the last 7 months from when our cat Smudge was rushed in for an emergency operation to all the follow-ups. All the staff have been wonderful and I’d like to say an especially heart-felt thank you to Vet Kat Arnold who has been exceptional in every way. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Donaldson’s Vets, we couldn’t have wished for better care, they have gone above and beyond. Thank you 
Domestic
With 6 clinics (and a 7th due to open in Penistone soon!) spread across Huddersfield, Mirfield and South Halifax, friendly pet care is never far away
