Barnsley Vets4Pets Ltd is part of the Vets4Pets group, and the website says it has been run by Dr Caroline Richards and Dr Peter Richards since 2002. The practice is set up for both routine care and more advanced hospital-style work: the site lists in-house CT, orthopaedics and spinal surgery, plus rehabilitation (hydrotherapy/physiotherapy). In the latest reviews, owners describe pets going from scan to surgery quickly (including over the Christmas period), and also mention end-of-life support such as helping a family get âone more dayâ before euthanasia and sending a handwritten condolence card. One recent review strongly disputes the clinicâs decision-making, alleging âunnecessary proceduresâ and rough handling of catsâso experiences reported are not uniformly positive.

Been with this vets on and off for several years now and all of the vets and nurses I've seen here are very kind, caring and professional. The receptionists are very good and will go out of their way to help with appointments and queries. The Practice Manager is very pro-active and can often be seen in the background supporting staff members in what can only be described as very busy and at times possibly stressfull enviroment for staff members. She is very passionate and caring and a strong manager. They are open 24/7 and their prices are very reasonable in comparison to other vets, although administration fees for dispensing medications can be around ÂŁ16 per item, (bearing in mind that almost all vets charge this not just Barnsley Vets for pets) plus the cost of the medications, some of which can be bought online with a prescription for much less, there is a charge for prescriptions but they are very reasonable! So it's probably worth getting a prescription which is active for 6 months once prescribed, for things like worming and flea products or long-term medications. All in all this vets offers up-to-date treatments and are very caring and knowledgeble.

From start to finish, the care from this vets was truly exceptional. Over the Christmas period, when emotions were already high, my dog was taken for a scan and immediately into surgery. The owners personally saw her case through and carried out the surgery themselves, which meant so much to us. I was kept informed every step of the way, with clear, honest explanations that really helped during an incredibly stressful and frightening time. She was looked after with genuine love, care, and dignity throughout. Although the surgery itself was a success and she was home in time for Christmas, they unfortunately had to share some very difficult news about her prognosis. That call was handled with the utmost compassion, kindness, and sensitivity â something I will never forget. During one of the hardest moments, especially over Christmas, their empathy and professionalism made an unbearable situation a little easier. I am so deeply grateful for everything they did especially Caroline, Peter and Will. We have used this vets for years and travel around 40 minutes to get there, I wouldnât hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

Given 1 star as there isnât an option for less, theyâre an absolute disgrace! Their disrespect and treatment of my cats was appalling, I used to think a vets used to care about the welfare of our pets (family) not this place! Lies after lies to have unnecessary procedures done! Which I can only assume was money orientated! That also put my elderly terrified cat under so much stress I was worried I was going to lose her, let alone them forcing my 2 stone Maine coon cat into a 5 inch high chicken basket 𤏠which must have taken a hell of a lot of force!! Stay away from these if you love your pets as they clearly donât care

All of the staff - reception, nurses, consultants âŚ. Canât fault. Very difficult process to have a family pet put to sleep. All of the staff were brilliant from start to finish. Their compassion and professionalism helped a lot, thank you.

This is a hard review for me but I want to thank some of the best people I've ever met. Thank you Will for being there for our baby girl from the beginning to the end and thank you to everyone for always being kind and caring not just to our Nala but to us too. Even though our Nala isn't with us anymore we will never forget everything you did for her. She loved you and we appreciate and love you for what you did for her. Thank you x

Been coming ever since we got Bella as a puppy, the staff have always been lovely and understanding. We recently had to have Bella put to sleep. I canât thank the staff enough for looking after Bella and for giving us one more day at the beach with her. Forever grateful. We also received a lovely hand written card from the team.

We were fortunate to have such knowledgeable, professional and compassionate team of vets caring for our beloved companion Elsa. Sadly, we lost her to illness but throughout the entire journey, the treatment and kindness shown were exceptional. We cannot fault the care she received and would highly recommend this practice. If we ever decide to welcome another companion into our lives, this will be the only practice we trust

I love this vets, they have been so attentive towards my 2 cats, I called at 3 oâclock as my cat was poorly and she was in by 6 oclock, I was at work but they gave me a choice on when I could get there which is rare these days. Prices arenât bad meaning I didnât have to use my pet insurance which is great. The vet was so kind with Mia. She is already showing she is feeling better! Thanks guys
