Lockdown 3.0 January 2021
Parkhill Vets would like to reassure all our clients that we will be open throughout the lockdown period to meet the health and welfare needs of your pets. We will be following both government guidelines and those laid down by our governing bodies an as such some of our routine or non essential services will be altered. Please contact the practice by telephone in the first instance to discuss your needs and those of your pet. We are currently only allowing pets into the practice and are working under enhanced biosecurity measures. This can slow things down a little so we appreciate everyone's patience. Telemedicine consultations are available and are charged at our normal consultation rate.
Our opening hours will remain unchanged.
We must ensure our team remains safe so that we can continue to provide our service and therefore will request that cilents remain outside and do not enter the building.
Please always phone before coming to the practice and please do not attend the practice if you or anyone in your household are Shielding, Self Isolating, or Symptomatic. If you are awaiting a Covid test result please do not attend either. If you cannot attend the practice please do not worry as we will endeavour to help you the best we can, just give us a call on 01937 582025.
For the time being we will go back to accepting only card or BACS payments.
Our telephone lines have been busier than ever and we have put in extra lines. Please bare with us if you cannot get through immediately- we are in, but probably just tied up with other calls.
Our system of parking in a numbered bay and phoning to let us know you have arrived will continue. A vet or nurse will come to your car when we are ready to see you and carry out your consultation either outside or over the telephone (weather-dependent).
We are proud to be a 100% independent practice and have been so for 100 years now ever since George "Seaton" Powley put up his plate on North Street, Wetherby in 1920. As ever, our emergency service will be available to our registered clients operating from our Parkhill site. Our emergency teams will be there if you need them. We do not out source any of our "out of hours" emergency work to corporate providers so please be reassured that you and your pet can stay local if an emergency crops up.
Our staff are working exceptionally hard to keep our service running as smoothly as it can at this difficult time and we are grateful for your patience and understanding.
Laparoscopic "Keyhole" Surgery (March 2018)
In line with our commitment to improving patient care and the services we provide at Parkhill Vets Ltd, we are proud to announce the arrival of our new state of the art laparoscopy unit.
The significant investment we have made in this equipment will enable us to perform minimally invasive neutering (spay) operations using laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery. This technique is performed through two small incisions in the abdominal wall approximately 5mm long and compared to the more conventional, full surgical "open abdomen" approach, the recovery is quicker with less pain and discomfort. External sutures are often not required. In addition to neutering we are also now able to perform minimally invasive exploratory investigations of the abdomen and take organ biopsies where indicated.
Please follow this link to our services page where you can read more about this exciting new technique.
Located in state of the art premises at Parkhill on Walton Road, Wetherby. Our friendly team of trained, dedicated staff provide excellent veterinary care and advice.
We are proud to be an RCVS Accredited Practice under the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons Practice Standards Scheme.
