Excellent service and very caring for our dog. The staff on duty were excellent and nothing was too much trouble. Would recommend to anyone. If the practice was nearer to our home we would use it all the time.

Our Jack Russell girl was poorly while we were on holiday over New Year. Thankfully Skeldale Vetinary Hospital is open for emergencies. The examinations were thorough and when she stayed in the hospital communication with us was excellent. Although we didn't get right to the root of the problem the tests carried out there were informative and she was stabilised to let us travel back home. The records have been shared with our usual vets at home and she now has a referral to an internal medicine consultant in the next few days. I hope we never need to, but should the need arise I wouldn't hesitate to take my dogs here again. Thank you Skeldale.

Really friendly and supportive team from the moment you walk into the practice. Even more impressed with follow up appointment with Vet Sarah today, she took a holistic overview of our dog’s health, gave helpful advice and just seemed to really care about our dog and the relationship that we as owners have with the practice. I also take comfort in the team being available 24 hours and knowing our dog if she ever needed out of hours care.

After recently discovering my boy has ivdd in his back I cannot thank skeldale enough for the support and going out of their way to try and make him comfortable and also so considerate of my feelings knowing he is my baby. I always feel welcome coming in the reception staff are amazing I have dealt with a few other vets at the surgery which I have found helpful and caring but MY vet Sarah beckerlegge who I have been going to for years who has looked after a lot of my dogs has my biggest thanks for being a great vet who I trust immensely and for always being caring and sympathetic to my feelings as well as great with my dogs. Thanks to all of you .

We have been going to Skeldale in Thirsk for 41 years. Even though it is now a Medivet practice it still retains the old Skeldale values. The reception staff are really friendly and my vet, Sarah Beckerlegge, is very knowledgeable, kind and patient and has a genuine love of animals. We also have the peace of mind to know Skeldale offer a 24 hour service.

Great team of vets at Skeldale who have always looked after our dogs well and continued to do so. Caring and gentle with our pup and more than happy to spend time reassuring him before treating him. Also, very good with our older dog who has had more vet visits than I care to mention due to her happy-go-lucky attitude to life (clumsy!). She is nervous but is always handled gently, respecting her temperament. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend the team at Skeldale.

Excellent care at both routine visits and an emergency visit following my pup's accident. The consideration shown to myself and my granddaughter at this distressing visit was exceptional.

All the staff that dealt with my cat were kind and caring towards her both at her operation and the following check ups.
