Our mission at Holmefield Vets is to deliver professional veterinary care that your pets would choose for themselves at our surgeries in both Brayton and Sherburn-in-Elmet.

If the insurer declines to settle the insurance claim, it's your responsibility to settle the account in full within 30 days.

We now have 7 different categories* that form the basis of our client communications so we can be very specific in what we do and don't send you. We deem these categories as 'legitimate business interests'. This means we think they are critical for us to provide you and your pet the best possible healthcare service. These 'marketing categories' keep you and your pet up to date with offers and promotions relating to your pet and the practice.

read moreWe recommend your pet is fed a good quality complete diet designed for your pets' age and lifestyle. When you first bring your puppy or kitten home, it is a good idea to stick to the feeding regime that they are used to. This should help smooth the transition into your home. We would then recommend that you choose a good quality complete food that is designed to meet the nutritional needs of your pets age and lifestyle. To change from the original diet to the new one, you should gradually introduce the new diet over a minimum of five days, by increasing the new diet gradually, whilst at the same time reducing the old.
