🥰🥰THANK YOU🥰🥰
To our all our team members who gave up some of their festive period with family and friends to provide an emergency service for your pets. Without them, this service would not be available. We tried to stay festive as much as possible as you can see. Pictured are some of the amazing staff (not all) who worked key dates over the festive period day and night.

Meet Clementine 🎄🐾
This cheeky girl decided to help herself to a whole box of mince pies, which unfortunately contain raisins that are toxic to dogs. A quick festive visit meant we had to make her sick as a precaution.
She was an absolute star for her injection and enjoyed lots of cuddles from our lovely animal nursing assistant, Lily❤️.

🙏🙏Thank you🙏🙏
A massive thank you to all our amazing clients who have taken the time to give kind words, to send us Christmas cards and bring in some treats for the staff.
We are hugely grateful for these, they definitely keep us going over what is a very busy 24 hour day and manic festive period for us.
Sugar is life, we worry about the weight gain in the New Year! 😉

The Minster Veterinary Practice has been providing veterinary care to the pets of York for more than 100 years. Originally based in a converted townhouse in The Crescent, The Minster Veterinary Practice has expanded into one of York’s largest small animal practices.
The Minster Veterinary Practice has five branches at Crockey Hill, Willow Grove, Copmanthorpe and Haxby, and its main small animal hospital at Salisbury Road.
The Minster Veterinary Practice moved the main hospital to its current site at Salisbury Road in 1985. Originally poultry and equine were both treated at this site, but since 1998 Salisbury Road has been a dedicated small animal practice. In 2015, the Salisbury Road practice gained hospital status, the highest level of accreditation, from the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS).
The Minster Veterinary Practice has steadily grown and now has 21 vets, 18 veterinary nurses and 19 reception and admin staff, operating across its five branches and at its main hospital at Salisbury Road.
