Best Vets in Doncaster – Complete Local Guide

The Pet Vet is described on its website as an independent, family-owned practice, with routine, emergency, and at-home appointments available 7 days a week and no surcharge for weekends, evenings, or bank holiday visits (including for unregistered pets). It also states Blue Paw accreditation and is listed as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility. In the latest reviews available to us, owners repeatedly mention clear explanations and shared decision-making (“general advice and leaving it to the owner’s decision”), plus responsive handling of urgent cases (pets seen as emergencies and treated quickly). Post-procedure communication is also described, including updates after surgery and again once the pet was awake and eating.

White Cross Vets is part of the White Cross Vets clinic group (the website describes 21 practices across the North and Midlands). From the latest reviews, this practice is used for both routine care and more involved procedures, including referral surgery: one owner’s dog was referred in for mast cell tumour removal and described the operation as going well, with the reception team handling the referral and insurance claim quickly and explaining what to expect beforehand. Reviews also mention dentistry (scale and polish with extractions) and care for small pets such as rabbits and guinea pigs. Owner experiences are mostly very positive (gentle handling of nervous pets, clear explanations), but one recent review describes a stressful dental visit with concerns about communication, the procedure running longer than expected, extractions not being completed, and being asked to pay again for a further session.

Doncaster Pet Clinic Ltd describes itself as a family-owned veterinary clinic and is Vetsure-accredited. The website points to a practice set up for routine care plus in-house diagnostics and procedures, with facilities including an in-house lab, digital X‑ray, ultrasound scanning, a theatre suite, dental imaging, and Class IV laser therapy, alongside separate cat and dog wards and an isolation wing. In the latest reviews available, owners repeatedly mention: - Follow-up contact between appointments to check how owners/pets are doing. - Neutering outcomes (including XL bulldogs) with specific mention of minimal bruising post-op. - Support for anxious dogs, including taking things “at her pace”. - End-of-life care, including help with arrangements and a home visit for euthanasia.

Vets Now Doncaster is part of Vets Now, an emergency-care provider with 60+ clinics and an option for video consultations (per the clinic website). The clinic is set up for out-of-hours urgent and emergency cases for small animals, with reviews describing late-night/overnight visits, rapid triage, and emergency surgery. Concrete details owners mention include: - Being “ready for when we arrived” after a phone call ahead, and seeing pets quickly in emergencies. - Regular updates during treatment/hospitalisation (one reviewer highlights “Ximo” phoning with updates during emergency surgery). - End-of-life care: owners describe being given time to say goodbye during euthanasia. - Some owners raise strong concerns about cost, including a complaint about medication priced “nearly five times” the regular cost and one bill of £726 to remove a grass seed from a dog’s ear.

Serenity Vet Services focuses on end-of-life support, including euthanasia carried out at home. Reviews repeatedly describe vets arriving at the booked time, explaining each step before proceeding, and giving families unhurried time with their pet afterwards. Several owners also mention aftercare such as ashes being returned within a few days, and options like an ink paw print on request. One recent review reports a “mixed experience” and advises requesting an established vet rather than a locum, suggesting the experience may vary depending on who attends.
